Cannabis Cowboys

An investigative true crime podcast about cannabis. The Berlin-based company JuicyFields promised huge profits through investments in medicinal cannabis. Thousands of people worldwide trusted the company with their savings – and lost everything. It could be a scam the size of Wirecard or OneCoin. Some say the Russian mafia or South American drug cartels were involved. Others point to German aristocrats. Since JuicyFields went dead in July 2022, criminal investigations have been launched all over
