About Organized Crime Podcast
From the publisher's feed
Organized crime is more than mob bosses, cartels, and notorious names. It is a system—built on money, loyalty, corruption, legitimate businesses, political influence, and the constant threat of…
violence.
Organized Crime goes inside the criminal organizations that have operated in the shadows of ordinary society, from the American Mafia and international drug cartels to outlaw networks, smuggling operations, and sophisticated criminal enterprises. Each episode examines how these organizations were built, how they made their money, how they protected themselves, and ultimately, how investigators learned to penetrate them.
Along the way, we explore the psychology of the people who entered these worlds: the bosses who commanded loyalty, the soldiers who carried out orders, the informants who broke their silence, and the investigators who spent years trying to bring entire organizations down.
This isn’t simply a podcast about criminals. It’s a podcast about how criminal organizations actually work.
