Meet Arthur Brand, the real-life Indiana Jones of the art world who's recovered 200+ stolen Picassos, Van Goghs, and Nazi-looted treasures.Full show notes and resources can be found here: <a href="https://jordanharbinger.com/1354" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">jordanharbinger.com/1354</a>What We Discuss with Arthur Brand:<ul><li>The Dr. No delusion: Why thieves keep stealing famous paintings they can never sell — chasing a mythical billionaire collector who exists only in James Bond films — and how police exploit that fantasy by posing as the fabled buyer to lure them out.</li><li>An eight-billion-euro underworld: How art crime quietly became the world's third-largest criminal money flow, entangling mafias, terrorists, corrupt states, and even figures who tried to fund attacks like September 11th.</li><li>The forgery epidemic: Why roughly a third of all art may be fake — with some museums closer to half — and how looters double their money by slipping convincing copies in beside the genuine antiquities they dug from the ground.</li><li>How stolen masterpieces come home: Why a hot Van Gogh becomes a worthless hot potato shuffled between drug lords, and how most recoveries begin with a jealous ex, a bragging Tinder date, or a criminal desperate to offload a cursed relic.</li><li>Trust the human element: Discover how patient curiosity and plain conversation — knocking on a door, catching an offhand brag, letting people quietly do the right thing — recover treasures that badges, warrants, and Fort Knox security never could.</li><li>And much more...</li></ul><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/id1344999619?mt=2&ls=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here</a> — even one sentence helps! <ul><li>Sign up for <a href="https://jordanharbinger.com/course" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Six-Minute Networking</a> — our free networking and relationship development mini course — at <a href="https://jordanharbinger.com/course" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">jordanharbinger.com/course</a>!</li><li>Subscribe to our once-a-week <a href="https://www.jordanharbinger.com/news/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Wee Bit Wiser</a> newsletter today and start filling your Wednesdays with wisdom!</li><li>Do you even Reddit, bro? <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanHarbinger/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join us at r/JordanHarbinger</a>!</li></ul>This Episode Is Brought To You By <a href="https://www.jordanharbinger.com/deals/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Our Fine Sponsors</a>: <ul><li>Ground News: <a href="https://groundnews.com/jordan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">40% off unlimited access Vantage subscription: groundnews.com/jordan</a></li><li>K12: <a href="https://k12.com/jordan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Learn more at k12.com/jordan</a></li><li>HomeServe: <a href="https://www.homeserve.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Find the plan that's right for you: homeserve.com</a></li><li>BetterHelp: <a href="https://www.betterhelp.com/jordan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">10% off first month: betterhelp.com/jordan</a></li></ul>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
