You think investigative journalism is reading documents and writing articles?

Try being arrested by a dictator’s secret police.

In Part 2, Greg Palast walks through what it actually takes to investigate powerful people, not from a studio, but from inside hostile environments.

We talk about:

- Going undercover to expose corruption

- Being detained by Kazakhstan’s secret police

- Surviving imprisonment under a dictatorship

- Allegations involving British diplomatic officials and Jeffrey Epstein

- Claims of MI6 involvement in a coup d’état

The real risks that come with exposing “smoking gun” evidence

This isn’t commentary. It’s field work.

It’s the kind of investigative journalism that doesn’t trend on social media because it threatens the wrong people.

If Part 1 explained why power matters…Part 2 shows what happens when you challenge it.

Part 3 concludes the series.
