I'm Samparanti and for the past seven years I've been granted access to a team of US special agents.
Their job to track down those who create and trade in sickening images on the dark web.
When I hug my kids, that's your fuel.
That's your why.
From the BBC World Service, World of Secrets, the darkest web tells their story.
I spent the last three decades trying to better understand money across the boardroom,
the newsroom, and the trading floor.
That's longer than most podcast hosts have been alive.
But even I've got questions.
Join me, Merrin's Hubs at Web, every week for my show, Merrin Talks Money, from Bloomberg Podcasts,
where I have in-depth conversations with fund managers,
strategists, and experts about how markets really work.
And don't leave for a separate episode where I answer listener questions on how to make those markets work for you.
Follow Merrington's money on Apple Podcast, Spotify or wherever you listen.
Welcome to the inquiry with me, Tanya Beckett from the BBC World Service.
One question for expert witnesses and an answer.
Amid US President Trump's battle over trade,
bid to control Greenland and even take over Canada, one theme underlies much of the rhetoric.
That is, who controls access to the minerals essential for the manufacture of modern technology.
