Art crime isn't like other crime. They aren't just stealing from one person or organization, when they steal a masterpiece from a museum,  they're stealing from all of us. A lot of former law enforcement officials write books. Not a lot of them write page turners.I found Robert Wittman after reading about him in the news and reached out cold—because his book Priceless is just that good. We're talking kept-me-up-until-2-AM good. Art crime is fascinating, but it doesn't always grab me like this one did.Robert was instrumental in the creation of the FBI's rapid deployment Art Crime Team and spent his career going undercover to recover stolen masterpieces worth hundreds of millions of dollars. In this conversation, we get into what it's actually like to work art fraud cases, what differentiates it from other fraud, and how he turned those wild stories into a book that reads like a thriller.Connect with Robert:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-wittman-74347a16/Website: https://www.robertwittmaninc.com/aboutBooks: https://www.robertwittmaninc.com/booksMore from Robert:BBC Interview: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct5p64Podcast Appearances: https://www.podchaser.com/creators/robert-wittman-107aNDpttk/appearances

In this powerful episode of Gangland Wire, retired Intelligence Unit detective Gary Jenkins sits down with Tegan Broadwater, a former Fort Worth Police officer, musician, and undercover operative whose story reads like a movie script. Broadwater takes listeners on a riveting journey from his early years as a professional musician to his dramatic turn infiltrating one of America's most dangerous street gangs—the Crips. Drawing from his book Life in the Fishbowl, he details how music, culture, and human connection became unexpected tools for survival and success inside the underworld. Listeners will hear: How Tegan Broadwater transitioned from touring musician to undercover police officer, bringing creativity and adaptability to the streets. The story of his two-year infiltration into the Crips—posing as a South Texas drug dealer with the help of a trusted informant. His insights into gang hierarchy, loyalty, and manipulation, and how understanding culture was key to earning trust. The moral challenges of living undercover—forming friendships with men he would eventually arrest. The emotional impact of a major gang raid that ended with over 50 arrests, and how it changed his outlook on justice and humanity. His decision to donate proceeds from his book to the children of incarcerated parents aims to break the cycle of violence. He continues to share lessons on leadership, empathy, and cultural understanding through his private security firm and new podcast projects.   Broadwater's story isn't just about crime and undercover operations—it's about identity, compassion, and the human cost of violence. This episode offers a rare look at what it means to live behind a mask while still holding onto one's purpose.

Scott Payne spent 25 years in the FBI, a lot of the time undercover infiltrating Nazi groups and white supremacist organizations, motorcycle gangs, etc. He busted up many plots including one Dylan Roof copycat that wanted to attack a synagogue in Myrtle Beach. He also spent Halloween night 2019 camping in the backwoods of Georgia, huddled with a cell of neo-Nazis as they slaughtered a goat and drank its blood in a ritual pagan sacrifice. In Code Name: Pale Horse (coming March 25), this retired FBI agent, crowned as the "Hillbilly Donnie Brasco," takes readers into some of the most terrifying and risky assignments in the FBI's history. They will join Scott as he goes undercover with the lethal Outlaw Motorcycle Club in Massachusetts; ventures into the mountains of Tennessee where he was on the front lines of the opioid epidemic; and travels to Alabama, where he infiltrates the Klu Klux Klan by singing and playing guitar for them as a thirty-foot cross burns, and wonders how this is his life. All the while, he managed to stay married to the love of his life, raise two girls, and spend Sundays at church, drawing on his family and his faith to get him through harrowing and exhausting assignments. This is an inspiring, emotionally honest memoir from an American hero and an unflinching deep dive into the most dangerous and pressing threats, beginning and ending with one of the most overlooked ones: the recent rise of a neo-Nazi accelerationist movement that's working to spark a race war, and Scott's mission to take it down before the unthinkable happens.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Today's guest is writer/director Natalia Leite. This director is one of the bravest filmmakers I've ever met. Her work on the VICE documentary ‘Life as a Truck-Stop Stripper was breathtaking. Not only did she direct the piece but one of the subjects in the film as well. Take a look below at her amazing work.Everyone knows what charming places strip clubs can be, but perhaps there is no club so charming as one in Moriarty, New Mexico—a truck stop with taxidermy and the bras of former employees on the walls, a few poles, a shitload of black light, and plenty of titties. Never mind that The Ultimate Strip Club List website describes it as the place “where strippers go to die.” Natalia Leite and Alexandra Roxo go Gonzo as they pose as strippers and experience something that can be best described as a Marina Abramovic performance crossed with a bizarro episode of Wife Swap directed by David Lynch's daughters, set in the type of place where a one-eyed guy who shot himself in the head dispenses meditation advice to two naked women.Natalia Leiteis a Brazilian writer/director. Her work has been described as having “a bracing, assertive style” (Variety), “emotional intelligence and sensitivity” (LA Times), and as “cementing the reign over highly stylized, sexually progressive dramas” (Slant).Her feature film “M.F.A.”, a psychological thriller centered around rape crimes in a university, premiered at SXSW 2017 and was nominated for a Grand Jury Prize. The film stars Francesca Eastwood and was released in theaters October 2017. Her feature film debut, “Bare,” premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2015, starring Dianna Agron.The film was released by IFC Films and Paramount Pictures. Natalia has created original content for Vice Media, most notably the provocative Vice show “Every Woman” which has garnered over 11 million views. She co-created and starred in the series “Be Here Nowish,” and has directed and shot documentaries internationally.Natalia is a contributing writer for Talk House and has been a featured speaker for NY Women In Film & Television, Apple Store Talks, IFP Filmmaker Conference, and numerous Universities. She also directs branded content for Vans, The North Face, Nasty Gal, and other companies. She recently signed with bicoastal production company Humble, her first commercial representation, and directs branded content for Vans, The North Face, and other companies.Enjoy my conversation with Natalia Leite.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

This is part 2 of a powerful two-part episode of Ask a Matchmaker. This week, Matchmaker Maria sits down with journalist Vera Papisova, who went undercover on conservative dating apps during the 2024 election cycle. Her goal? To investigate the rise of red pill culture, Christian nationalism, and the growing appeal of traditional gender roles among men in far-right dating spaces. From secret neo-Nazi meetings in New York to profiles proudly declaring “pureblood” status and requests for “biblical wives,” Vera reveals how misogyny, extremism, and identity politics are shaping romantic expectations and emotional behavior. What began as a journalistic experiment quickly evolved into an unsettling exploration of trauma, projection, and toxic masculinity. Maria and Vera also reflect on the backlash they received after discussing red pill content online, exposing the volatile intersection of media, dating, and power. Whether you're dating in New York or simply curious about how political ideology infiltrates personal relationships, this episode offers a gripping look at the psychology behind modern extremism and how it shows up on your screen.

In this episode, we welcome Scott Payne to the show. Scott, aka “Hillbilly Donnie Brasco”, is a retired FBI Special Agent who spent 28 years in law enforcement, investigating drug-trafficking organizations, human traffickers, and domestic terrorists. Much of that work was undercover work that included him infiltrating Neo Nazi/white supremacist groups (like the Ku Klux Klan and The Base) and biker gangs (like the Outlaws Motorcycle Club). He is the author of a new book “Codename: Pale Horse - How I Went Undercover to Expose America's Nazis”. In this interview, we discuss what led him to federal law enforcement, how he was recruited into undercover work, what it was like being trained by Joe Pistone (aka Donnie Brasco), how he got his introduction into infiltrating the Outlaws Motorcycle Club, the time when he thought his cover was blown and that he was going to be murdered by the gang, how he joined/infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan, the difference between old school white supremacists and “Accelerationists”, if he is worried about his safety now that he is retired from law enforcement, and much more.

In the previous episode we heard how some rationally-designed therapies work on almost any cancer with the right molecular signature. Tumour-agnostic medications could be godsend for patients with rare cancers which have classically been overlooked by drug developers, and those with advanced cancers of unknown origin. 15,000 such patients have undergone comprehensive genome profiling of their tumours through the organisation, Omico. In this podcast, Omico's founder explains that while the majority have received recommendations about matched therapies, clinical trials are typically the only way to enable access. Professor David Thomas discusses why Australia's Health Technology Assessment process appears to be so conservative and how the market price of next-generation oncotherapies might be brought down by changes across the local ecosystem. Guest Prof David Thomas FRACP PhD (Director, Centre for Molecular Oncology UNSW; Founder and Chief of Science, Omico)  Professor Thomas or Omico have received grants, consultancies or research support from Roche, Astra Zeneca, Pfizer, Eisai, Illumina, Beigene , Elevation Oncology, RedX Pharmaceuticals, SunPharma , Bayer, George Clinical, Novotech , Merck Sharpe and Dohme, Boehringer Ingelheim, Hummingbird, Microba , BioTessellate , PMV Pharma, Australian Unity and Foundation Medicine. ProductionProduced by Mic Cavazzini DPhil.

The genomic understanding of cancer has transformed a tissue-based classification model that had been dominant for 150 years or more. The last three decades have seen highly targeted therapies developed at blistering pace, and unprecedented improvements in patient outcomes. To date, these advances have been focused on more common cancers. The financing model for drug development means that rare cancers get overlooked, given the small pool of potential buyers relative to the costs and risks of investment. However, the molecular targets characterised in more common cancers are often found in cancers of a different histotype. As such, precision therapies will sometimes have tissue-agnostic efficacy and offer a lifeline for patients with neglected diseases or cancers of unknown origin. Professor David Thomas has founded an NGO called Omico to enable such patients to undergo profiling for hundreds of potential molecular targets. In this interview he explains the rationale for the most promising pan cancer therapies, and in the next episode we discuss changes to the regulatory and funding model required to sustain this screening program. Guest Prof David Thomas FRACP PhD (Director, Centre for Molecular Oncology UNSW; Founder and Chief of Science, Omico) Professor Thomas or Omico have received grants, consultancies or research support from Roche, Astra Zeneca, Pfizer, Eisai, Illumina, Beigene , Elevation Oncology, RedX Pharmaceuticals, SunPharma , Bayer, George Clinical, Novotech , Merck Sharpe and Dohme, Boehringer Ingelheim, Hummingbird, Microba , BioTessellate , PMV Pharma, Australian Unity and Foundation Medicine.

To coincide with the launch of my true crime book ‘Decoy' I've updated and reissued this podcast featuring a rare and exclusive interview with Chris Gould.In the 1970s, the city of Bristol was terrorised by a man nicknamed ‘The Clifton Rapist.' The stranger-attacker assaulted seven women over a two-year period.PC Chris Gould suggested a daring honeytrap: Avon and Somerset Police should set up an innovative undercover sting, using young rookie police officers as decoys to catch him.This was a monumental gamble, putting the lives of their youngest, least-experienced female officers on the line.But 12 women volunteered.As the weeks passed, with no further attacks, commanders made an even more innovative move. And Chris's career was never the same again.How was the predator caught and justice achieved? Chris has never spoken in this detail before.+++ Grab your copy of Decoy here in the UK: https://tinyurl.com/fd759pmh ++++++ Or here in the USA: https://tinyurl.com/yethzdum +++Haven't subscribed yet?

Wise County Sheriff Lane Akin was once known as Joe Lane. Joseph Lane had a beard and shaggy hair as an undercover agent during the precipice of the meth boom in Texas. His time in narcotics enforcement influenced his career and was the subject of his new book, "The Point. Dawn of the Texas Meth War."

The amazing life of undercover agent Frederick L. Gleffe is a nonstop series of adventures inside three of our nation's law enforcement agencies.  His sometimes surreal, always perilous cases include breaking up a black market arms ring at a Special Forces armory and running an ongoing ‘sting' during the Miami “Cocaine Wars” in the 80s, selling everything from high-tech weapons to rare animals.  Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

Ever wonder about the ethical challenges of undercover investigations and how they parallel the world of politics? Do the powerful always fall prey to corruption? My good friend and undercover investigator, Thomas Hampson joins me to navigate these murky waters and also shed light on the new House Speaker, Mike Johnson. Tom and I explore how power, pride, and money can blur moral lines, often leading to a decay that mirrors some of the political landscapes we see today.We then shift our focus to examine society's growing desensitization towards pornography and its shocking marketing towards children. It's an uncomfortable truth many would rather ignore.

Since 2016 we’ve seen mainstream politics take a turn for the weird, epitomised by the surprise success of populist projects like Brexit and the election of Donald Trump. Since then, fringe views have continued to muscle into the middle ground, with conspiracy theories and far-right talking points trickling into political discourse. Julia Ebner has been […]

In this eye-opening episode of "Prime Time with Alex Stein," Alex and Sara Gonzales discuss their undercover experience at a so-called "family-friendly" Pride rally, exposing the truth behind the scenes of what was easily available to children. Should Pride events be adult-only? Joining them afterward is special guest Jacob Chansley, widely known as the "QAnon Shaman" for his distinctive outfit and actions on January 6, to give us shocking revelations about the motivations and beliefs of those involved in the Capitol riot. The show concludes with Alex and the team reacting to the viral clip of the day.

Matt Cooper joins Tim today as they dive deeper into the mind space of an undercover operator. We intentionally go to the darkest corners of the globe to rescue children from trafficking. They are the places no one else would go but a lot of what our operators see are things that no one should ever have to witness, let alone experience.  Tim reflects back on his experiences when he was first sent to undercover school, something he never sought to do. There isn't anything inherent in police officers that makes them good undercover operators. They must be trained to respond quickly and do whatever it takes to really play the role and dig into a trafficking ring. Tim and Matt share how that can really mess with a person.  Going undercover is a massive responsibility to take on board, and it also takes a huge mental and emotional toll on our operators. Matt and Tim talk about how they both deal with the after-effects of an operation and why coming home to their families is often a brutal reminder of everything they have just witnessed.  O.U.R. has rescued hundreds of kids in Haiti, most of whom were made victims by the horrific earthquake in 2010. Tim tells the story of a little girl who was forced into trafficking after losing her family. She never believed that anyone would come to her rescue but exactly 8 years later, we walked through that door and brought hope where there was no hope.  This work is never done and Operation Underground Railroad needs your help to rescue as many children as possible.

Tim and Matt Cooper talk today about coming face to face with human traffickers over the years and how they don't necessarily look like the stereotypical creep you'd imagine.  One of the challenging aspects of this line of work, and a reason why child exploitation and human trafficking are so prevalent, is that there is no profile for a paedophile. You can't easily identify who they could be because a lot of the time, they look like your friend, your neighbour, your pastor or your teacher.  Tim and Matt talk about the shocking fact that a lot of the “successful” human trafficking networks have a female who takes care of the victims. These women have usually worked in the sex industry themselves and they use their knowledge to turn it on other victims of trafficking. This is another reason why female undercover operatives are so vital because they are able to build trust with the female perpetrators more so than men.   Reflecting on an operation where the perpetrator was acting strange, trying to determine if Tim was an undercover agent, Tim shares how frightening it is to see the lengths people will go to in order to engage in this sickening behaviour.  Tim shares a sobering warning that some of what we are seeing pushed today in political and social movements is actually trying to normalize sexually deviant behavior with children. He talks about the policies that are being proposed and enacted are the exact policies the paedophiles have been pushing for half a century. Let this be a further urge to parents, grandparents and carers that it's time to wake up and not allow our children to be caught in the child trap.    This work is never done and Operation Underground Railroad needs your help to rescue as many children as possible.

In part two of their conversation with deradicalized extremist and former Canadian government operative, Mubin Shaikh, Lola and Meagan dig into Mubin's meet-cute with his now-wife (who was not Muslim when they met), how little she knew about his extremism, why 9/11 was the turning point in his radical beliefs, and his deeper exploration into Islamic texts and interpretations. They discuss how he reached out to the Canadian government after a former acquaintance was arrested for a bomb plot, going undercover to disrupt a terrorist plot by the Toronto 18, the intervention work he's done, and how his work has impacted him emotionally.
