Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit’s history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, an ...

PREVIEW HEADLINE: Venezuela's Post-Maduro Challenge: Securing Military Loyalty in a Brief Transition Window GUEST: Evan Ellis, Professor, US Army War College 100-WORD SUMMARY: John Batchelor hosts Professor Evan Ellis to discuss the challenges facing Venezuela following the presumptive departure of Maduro, who heads the illegitimate Caracas regime and is named as the head of a drug cartel. The conversation focuses on the elected president, Edmundo González, and Nobel Peace Prize winner María Corina Machado. Machado and González insist they are the elected government and their transition is not a regime change. Professor Ellis emphasizes that the timeline is critical. Since the US likely "won't necessarily be sticking around" to establish the transition to a democratic order, González and Machado will face a "very brief window and a very difficult task." Key challenges include establishing order and securing the loyalty of military personnel whose prior bosses were aligned with Maduro.
