*****YOU CAN NOW BINGE SEASON 1. SEASON 2 IS FORTHCOMING*****

The story: Jabbari Lincoln is the CIA’s top financial analyst. He happens to be Muslim. And he’s at the top of his professional game when he is unfairly suspected of being disloyal to the United States and gets suspended by the Agency.

Dejected and disgraced, he takes on a central bank consulting gig in Nigeria. But as he uncovers a sophisticated cyber financial plot, hidden forces try to eliminate him.

Cut off from his family, friends, and intelligence colleagues, he travels across three continents in order to figure out who is pulling the strings and, hopefully, to try to prevent the onslaught of a global financial apocalypse.

In this financial technology spy thriller, the question becomes - Will a cryptocurrency help save the world... or could it help destroy it?

Excellent Podcast

This podcast is enthralling and entertaining from beginning to end! I love the length of the episodes because it allows the story line to completely develop. I can’t wait for the next season!

Five Quid ,

Clever & engaging romp through global finance

This narrative podcast presents a happy medium between nocoiner skeptics and the permabulls; it constructs a scenario where a local cryptocurrency project bolsters a fiat currency. And yet it is also much more than that, as the listener is treated to a behind-the-scenes tour of the global financial system (via the Nigerian Central Bank) and picks up a few tricks of the trade of statecraft.

Many crypto skeptics lack imagination and many permabull advocates lack a grounded perspective. Happily the Jabbari Lincoln files is a slickly-produced, well-narrated “audio page-turner” that engages as well as enlightens.
