Why is that people in power so often use that power for personal gain? Host Kal Penn explores the wide range of corruption -- from petty bribery to grand corruption -- and how it can cripple entire economies. Traveling from San Francisco to Prague, Kuala Lumpur, Mumbai, and Singapore, Kal witnesses the various ways governments and individuals are fighting to keep their countries corruption-free.

Natural rubber is a 26 billion dollar industry. It is the backbone of the economy - crammed into everything from our clothing to medical necessities.

What is it about having a lot of money and a willingness to step over anyone to get more of it that seem to go together? Is there a correlation between richness and dickness? How about success in business and being a psychopath? Host Kal Penn travels to Thailand, New York, Dubai, and Los Angeles, unpacking a mystery at the very heart of capitalism: which came first: the money or the dickhead behavior?

Kal's journey ...
