September 15, 2021 Up Against the Mob: The Cooperator
Up Against the Mob is CAFE’s new six-episode series, hosted by former prosecutor Elie Honig, that lifts the veil on the world of the mafia and law enforcement’s efforts to bring mobsters to justice.
Episode 1 tells the story of Michael Visconti. Once a rising star in the Genovese crime family, Visconti decided to leave the mafia and become a cooperating government witness. Visconti opens up to Elie Honig about his life and rise in the mob — how he first got mixed up with the mafia, the violent crimes he committed, and his decision to flip against his mob “family.”
In the bonus episode for CAFE Insiders, Elie Honig and Safeena Mecklai take listeners behind the scenes of the first episode of Up Against the Mob. Become an Insider at cafe.com/Insider and enter code MOB for 50% off the annual membership price.

In this third episode of Doing Justice, Preet Bharara's six-part adaptation of his bestselling book, Preet tells the disturbing story of former NYPD Officer Gilberto Valle. People who work in law enforcement learn to have a special sense of impending danger, like a little voice in our heads that goes, “God forbid.” God forbid somebody should be planning a terrible crime, and no one steps in to stop him. There have been a lot of those moments in Preet’s career. This case was one of the worst.

January 21, 2021 Excerpt – God Forbid
Doing Justice is the new podcast from CAFE Studios, home of Stay Tuned with Preet. In this excerpt from an upcoming episode, we meet the FBI agent who reviewed the case of a police officer planning to kidnap, torture and eat his victims. This case was very different from the action movie stuff he was used to, one that would change the way he understood the world and what other people were capable of. This case looked more like the plot of a horror film.
Doing Justice is hosted by Preet Bharara and explores cases from the unique perspective of prosecutors grappling with urgent legal and moral questions. Each episode of Doing Justice explores a case, tells a story and defies expectations. Subscribe now, wherever you're listening.
