Deep Cover: The Nameless Man Pushkin

Deep Cover is a show about people who lead double lives. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jake Halpern reveals webs of deception and dark underworlds, through interviews with federal agents and convicted criminals.
Season four, The Nameless Man, tells the epic tale of two federal agents who investigate a rumor about a murder that supposedly took place 15 years prior. It is also the story of a family searching for answers about why their brother was killed. These two storylines collide in a courtroom in Philadelphia, where murder, memory, and morality go on trial.
Season three, Never Seen Again, tells the story of two women living on opposite sides of the country, who went missing in the summer of 1999. Seven years later, their stories collided when a small town detective got a tip and became convinced that if he could solve one mystery, he'd solve the other.
Season two, Mob Land, is about a high-rolling lawyer who joins forces with the feds to try to bring down one of the most powerful criminal syndicates in the country.
Season one, The Drug Wars, tells the story of an FBI agent who goes undercover with a biker gang, and follows a trail of clues that eventually leads to the US invasion of a foreign country.

Customer Reviews
Great show. Last season not.
I LOVE this show but the last season let us down.
Lovely story!
Season 4 summary: two white kids randomly kill a black drug dealer. Not sure how many kids died from the drugs the drug dealer sold. The drug dealers killing becomes the object of justice. Skinhead vs drug dealer. This is how dumb our society has become. All three of them should be dead and no one should care.
Season 1 was the peak of this podcast
I thoroughly enjoyed Season 1. Season 2 was also solid. 3 & 4 have tailed off a bit and the barrage of ads is the main reason I’m giving it a 4. Pushkin pods are actively trying to force people into subscriptions to avoid the deluge.
