  • Resumen

  • Listen to the trailer now and the full podcast on 10/28.

    How did we end up in this version of America, with neighbors divided against neighbors, and some citizens angry enough to storm the U.S. Capitol?

    The 2008 financial crisis - and the government’s botched, multibillion-dollar bailout - is the skeleton key that unlocks almost every big thing that’s gone wrong in America in the 21st Century, from climate change, to the all-out assault on democracy, to the rise of white nationalism.

    In this thrilling, 8-part podcast, investigative journalist David Sirota explores why the financial crisis happened, how the bailout went so wrong, why politicians covered up Wall Street’s crimes and what the lasting impact of the meltdown was on America’s political, social and economic fabric.

    This is an epic adventure, a search for answers that stretches from Bogotá, Colombia to Madison, Wisc., to Washington, D.C. Sirota talks to politicians who made the laws, the investigators who uncovered massive fraud and ordinary people who lost homes, families and livelihoods, in order to shed light on why the economic disaster happened, why nobody succeeded in fixing it, and why the country soon embraced the politics of rage.

    Meltdown is the first collaboration between Audible, a leading producer and provider of original spoken-word entertainment and audiobooks, and Jigsaw Productions, the production house launched and helmed by Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney (Taxi to the Dark Side, Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room, Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief) in collaboration with Transmitter Media, the Peabody-nominated and Webby-winning production company behind podcasts such as Finding Fred, Work Life with Adam Grant and Tabloid: The Making of Ivanka Trump. 

    Meltdown is enraging and engaging, must-listen audio entertainment for anyone who wants to know how we ended up where we are now - and where we might be going next.

Excellent, necessary journalism

This podcast is essential listening, and breaks down step by step how American politics got itself into the absolutely shambolic state it is today, by prioritizing greed and corporate interests over the wellbeing of tax paying citizens. Expertly researched, great archival content and interviews, narrated in simple but compelling terms - the type of progressive, fact-based and reasoned journalistic storytelling the world so badly needs right now.

Incisive

Well done. Exposes the Democratic Party as subservient to Wall St.

A detailed oral history of the chicanery behind the 2008 meltdown.

Epic

The scope and brilliance of this podcast is on par with that of the political science book, Bowling Alone.

Perfect Timing!

I followed the crash very carefully at the time, and this podcast does a masterful job of summarizing an extremely complicated issue. Amazing compilation of key events, clips and interviews. This is so very, very timely. Essential look back at dynamics that are playing out again. Don't miss out!

FARC U

The trust given to a DEA agent is disheartening. Calling the DEA and Columbia’s right wing government the “good guys” is laughable. I’ll keep listening but through critical lens.

Yawn, tired of lies & propaganda.

You don't have to turn on your television or browse your favorite social media app to be exposed to propaganda. It's now also available on Audible. "Every white person is racist, except those who vote Democrat."
"If you voted for three outsider instead of a career politician, you're obviously a white nationalist terrorist."
Yawn. A big snoozefest of of MSNBC-esque garbage.
Same old same old that the CIA has been pushing on us for over 50 decades.
If you like group think, you'll LOVE this.
If you've had an original thought in the last 5v years, well you might just see through the smoke and beyond the mirrors.
Pass on this one unless you're looking to add to your confirmation bias in large doses.
#pfft.
