At Brazen, we’re determined to shine a light on stories that reveal hidden aspects of the world around us.

Our recent podcasts include The Sound: Mystery of Havana Syndrome, named one of The New York Times’ best podcasts of 2023; the Peabody Award-nominated podcast Kabul Falling about the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan, and Spy Valley, a Tribeca-selected podcast on the story of America’s most infamous nuclear spy. Our Spanish language show, Corinna Y El Rey, ranked No.1 in Spain’s podcast chart.

Investigative prowess sets Brazen apart from other podcast producers, most recently having broken the news of fugitive Leonard Francis’ location before any other news or law enforcement agency – a development right at the heart of the US navy’s biggest-ever corruption scandal as explored in our show Fat Leonard.
