This week we're listening to Explosive Lies.
(6 Episodes)
"Hosted by Alice Levine Explosive Lies tells the extraordinary real-life story of a British businessman who sold fake bomb detectors that were deployed around the world, including in active conflict zones. Promoted as sophisticated, life-saving technology, the devices were in fact useless plastic golf ball detectors, with their use believed to have placed thousands of lives at risk.
Drawing on in-depth reporting, archive material, and never heard before testimony, Explosive Lies exposes how a glorified stocking filler passed as a fake security device, how red flags were ignored by governments and militaries, and the devastating human cost of a lie marketed as lifesaving technology"
