Hosted by the incisive and unflinching Jack Madoxx, El Dorado: The City Worth Killing For unravels the truth behind the world's most dangerous legend. Through forensic storytelling and cold-case clarity, Jack exposes the lies, vanishings, forged maps, colonial ambition, and human obsession that kept the myth alive for centuries. From the original Muisca ceremony misinterpreted by Spanish conquistadors to the systematic cartographic fraud that guided expeditions toward nothing, from the explorers who disappeared into the Amazon to the jungle that devoured them all, this series is a psychological autopsy of a story that consumed empires. Jack examines how one ritual observation warped into continental genocide, how greed weaponized myth, and why we're still drawn to golden cities that never existed. This isn't a treasure hunt—it's an investigation into what happens when ambition corrodes reason and desire becomes deadly.

episode The Men Who Vanished Chasing Gold cover

The Men Who Vanished Chasing Gold

Episode 3: The Men Who Vanished Chasing Gold Jack follows the tragic arcs of explorers who disappeared into the jungle and never came back: Gonzalo Pizarro's catastrophic expedition, Francisco de Orellana's abandonment, Pedro de Ursúa's murder by the psychotic Lope de Aguirre, and Sir Walter Raleigh's fatal obsession that cost him his son and his life. This episode catalogs the pattern of ambition becoming obsession becoming disappearance, examining how the sunk cost fallacy turned reasonable men into corpses. Jack dissects the psychology that kept expeditions marching toward death despite overwhelming evidence of failure, and how the jungle absorbed wave after wave of men who believed they'd somehow be the exception to a very consistent rule. https://Click here to browse handpicked Amazon finds inspired by this podcast series! https//amzn.to/424pzou This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.

episode The Maps That Never Led Anywhere cover

The Maps That Never Led Anywhere

Episode 2: The Maps That Never Led Anywhere Jack investigates the cartographic crimes behind El Dorado: forged maps, deliberately falsified coordinates, contradictory eyewitness accounts, and explorers who invented cities to secure funding. He exposes how maps became weapons in territorial disputes, how cartographers working in European studios drew locations they'd never visited, and how fraudulent geography guided expeditions toward disaster. From the nonexistent Lake Parime to the fabricated testimonies of explorers like Sir Walter Raleigh, this episode reveals how lies achieve longevity through repetition, authority, and just enough vagueness to prevent immediate disproof. The maps didn't reflect reality—they reflected politics, greed, and the human need for hope to have coordinates. https://Click here to browse handpicked Amazon finds inspired by this podcast series! https//amzn.to/424pzou This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.

episode The First Lie cover

The First Lie

Episode 1: The First Lie Jack traces the origin of El Dorado to a single misunderstood moment: a Muisca ceremony where a leader covered in gold dust dove into Lake Guatavita. He dissects how Spanish conquistadors transformed this spiritual ritual into rumors of infinite wealth, how observation became invention, and how a ceremony meant to explain a culture was twisted into justification for conquest. This episode examines the mechanics of how myths are born from fragments of truth, how ambition weaponizes misunderstanding, and how the Muisca people became the first casualties of someone else's fantasy. The first lie wasn't that El Dorado existed—it was that the fantasy mattered more than the truth. https://Click here to browse handpicked Amazon finds inspired by this podcast series! https//amzn.to/424pzou This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
