Episode 33 - Sabotage

HitchPod - A Podcast About Alfred Hitchcock Movies ·

2020/07/19

In the 33rd regular episode of HitchPod, we go back 85 years to Sabotage, based on Joseph Conrad’s novel The Secret Agent. Despite this, Sabotage has nothing to do with Hitchcock’s movie Secret Agent (which we covered in episode 26). Nor should it be confused with Saboteur (covered in episode 13). Because it’s much better than either of them. Honestly, much, much better. In the bonus segment for our supporters, we Hitchcockify Speed. Find out how to access that segment by going to
