Vladimir Putin. He’s not just a guy who will authorize countless war crimes while invading your country on false pretenses. He’s also a guy who will steal and launder hundreds of billions of dollars and kill anyone who stands in his way.

On this episode, we’re revisited by Red Notice and Freezing Order: A True Story of Money Laundering, Murder, and Surviving Vladimir Putin’s Wrath author Bill Browder, the man whose team discovered Putin’s money laundering scheme and exposed it to the world — putting a target on his back that has followed him around the world for years. Still, he’s luckier than his lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, who was beaten to death in a Moscow jail for crossing Putin. Here, we discuss how Bill discovered this instance of Putin’s malfeasance, how attempts at retaliation have resulted in some harrowing near misses — including a well-timed tweet that saved Bill’s life when he was falsely arrested, how disinformation and abuse of power keep criminals like Putin in control, and why Bill thinks Putin is making his move in Ukraine now and what he hopes to accomplish in the long run. Listen, learn, and enjoy!
