Our take on The Pirate of Prague podcast

In The Pirate of Prague, Joe Nocera cracks the story of Viktor Kožený, a Czech con artist whose silver tongue lured the elite of Aspen and a Wall Street heavyweight into a fraudulent investment scheme. Promising astronomical profits from the privatization of Azerbaijan's oil, Kožený's plot is as smooth as it is doomed. With weekly episodes just over half an hour, Nocera, a seasoned business journalist with a rich background from The New York Times to NPR, guides you through this true-crime financial thriller. The Pirate of Prague is a true crime podcast by Apple TV+.
