Launching this September from Pushkin Industries, a new investigative podcast hosted by journalist Lidia Jean Kott uncovers the true story of Tina Wong, a Chinese American mother in 1980s Manhattan who was pulled into a billion-dollar heroin trafficking scheme.

In this exclusive preview, Lidia joins host Saadia Khan to discuss the podcast's backstory, the complex moral terrain of friendship, and her personal connection-her boyfriend’s mother was the lead federal prosecutor on the case. The episode explores how systems of power, race, immigration, and economic survival collided in ways that still echo today.

It’s a layered portrait of immigrant resilience, impossible decisions, and the untold legacy of Chinatown’s exclusion.
