  • The Ghost Fleet
    Feb 1 2026

    This isn't a story about finance; it's a story about a murder. The victim was the economy of Mozambique, and the weapon was a fleet of tuna boats that never caught a single fish. We dive deep into the "Hidden Debt" scandal, exposing how a cabal of Swiss bankers, Abu Dhabi shipbuilders, and corrupt politicians used a coded email about "poultry" to siphon $2 billion into their own pockets. From the frozen boardrooms of Credit Suisse to the rusting hulls of the "Ghost Fleet" in Maputo harbor, this is the autopsy of a financial crime so audacious it pushed two million people into poverty.

    Jan 27 2026

    The Souk Al-Manakh: In a broken-down parking garage, a 22-year-old clerk from the passport office stumbled on a financial loophole—the post-dated check—that allowed him and thousands of speculators to spend money they didn't have. What started as a local stock market frenzy ballooned into a $94 billion debt crisis, nearly doubling Kuwait’s entire oil reserves. Tune in to this investigative deep-dive to witness the original "rug pull," the mass hallucination of greed, and the moment a nation of overnight millionaires was technically bankrupted by a single, bouncing check. This isn't history. It's a warning.
