In this debut episode of Narco Talk, investigative journalist Mica Treviño interviews Chris Dalby, an expert on organized crime, to discuss the meteoric rise and ruthless expansion of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).

With a global reach and military-style tactics, CJNG has become one of the most violent and influential criminal organizations in the world. Dalby unpacks:

• How Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera built an empire of fear and firepower

• CJNG’s brutal wars against rival cartels and the Mexican government

• The cartel’s global drug trafficking networks and its move beyond Mexico

• What the future holds for CJNG, Sinaloa, and the evolving narco landscape

This is raw, unfiltered insight from a leading expert in the field. There is no fluff—just facts, analysis, and the real story behind CJNG’s iron grip on the drug trade.
