About this listen

Alexandra Reeves traces the blood-soaked financial empire of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, following $14 billion in drug money across five continents and examining how a teenage marijuana hauler from the Sierra Madre built sophisticated smuggling tunnels, corrupted governments at every level, and left 34,000 bodies in his wake. This deep-dive episode reveals the cold business logic behind cartel violence, the systematic corruption that protected Guzmán for decades, and why new drug lords inevitably rise to replace those who fall.
