About this listen
Before it was a cigarette. Before it was a vape. Before it was a pouch in your lip. Nicotine was a sacred tool, a spiritual key, and a global empire waiting to happen. This is the full story — of how one tiny molecule rewired the human brain, built fortunes, funded nations, and turned ritual into addiction. From jungle ceremonies to tobacco plantations, filtered lies to fruit-flavored vapes, nicotine has been at the center of culture, power, craving, and capitalism for centuries. This isn’t a self-help book. It’s a history of control — and what it takes to take it back.
