UR 33: The Informant — Mark Whitacre

from Undone Redone

  This week's episode of the Undone Redone podcast features Mark Whitacre, an Ivy League PhD who became the highest-ranked executive of any Fortune 500 company to become a whistleblower in US history. Mark worked as an undercover informant for the FBI for 3 long years and is responsible for exposing the Archer Daniels Midland price-fixing scandal in the early '90's. His experience as an FBI informant was the inspiration behind the 2009 movie "The Informant", featuring Matt Damon. Ultimately serving almost 9 years in prison for corporate fraud, Mark refers to his time in prison as some of the most productive years of his life. Don't miss this made-for-Hollywood story as Mark openly shares how he was blinded by greed, power, and possessions and what it took for God to take him to the end of himself.
