Lobbying has long been a powerful force in Washington, shaping policies and influencing decisions behind closed doors. But how deep does this influence go, and what are the consequences for national security? This week, host Elisa sits down with Brody Mullins, co-author of The Wolves of K Street, to discuss the murky world of lobbying, its historical roots, and the unprecedented power wielded by today’s lobbyists. Part 1 of this two-part episode examines the century-long evolution of lobbying, introduces the influential figures who reshaped the landscape, and reveals how foreign influence has turned lobbying into a high-stakes pursuit for immense financial gain.

Brody Mullins is a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter and co-author of The Wolves of K Street
