A charming young Czech promises staggering returns. An entire country’s oil industry is up for grabs. America’s top investors want in. Sounds too good to be true? Damn right it is. This is a story of private jets, $20,000 dinners, and suitcases stuffed with cash. It’s also a tale about the collapse of communism, the free-for-all that followed, and the birth of the oligarchs. And it’s a story of plain-old human greed...of just how far the rich may go to get even richer. Viktor Kožený smooth-talked his super-wealthy Aspen neighbors and a Wall Street titan into investing huge sums of cash to snap up Azerbaijan’s state-owned oil company. Host Joe Nocera and investigative journalist Peter Elkind follow the trail, beginning in the Bahamas, where the charismatic financial genius has been lying low. The Pirate of Prague is an Apple Original podcast, produced by Blanchard House. Episodes available now, follow and listen on Apple Podcasts. apple.co/pirate

More than 25 years of space have left the people who knew Sue filling in the blanks. After coming to grips with the discrepancies between various accounts of her life, the team turns to a cognitive expert to understand how memories are made and altered over time. Then we circle back to the piece that ignited this mystery—the will. We speak to an expert in estate law to get clarity around Sue’s last wishes, and try to understand what she really wanted.

What happened to Sue’s body?

We examine the only tangible evidence of Sue’s life we have — her briefcase. Using her financial records, insurance papers, address books, and personal notes, we track Sue’s movements from Salisbury, England, all the way to Athens, Texas, and paint a more detailed portrait of who she was when she was alive.
