Imagine a true crime story like a detective show, but it's real!
A popular podcast called 'Hot Money: The New Narcos' is going to be turned into a TV show on Apple TV.
The podcast is all about a big group of bad guys who changed how drugs are sold all over the world.
It connects a crime family from Ireland to a mysterious death and lots of secret deals.
A reporter named Miles Johnson put the story together for the podcast.
Now, a company called Eden Productions is helping to make it a TV series for everyone to watch.
It's like uncovering a hidden world of crime and money.
Apple TV is developing a new series based on the Financial Times and Pushkin podcast 'Hot Money: The New Narcos'.
The podcast investigates a cocaine super cartel that significantly altered the global drug market.
The series will explore connections between Ireland's Kinahan crime family, a murder, and a network of illegal activities.
