À propos de ce contenu audio

This is the official podcast of Pursuit Magazine, an online community of private investigators, journalists, and truth-seekers of all stripes. In the podcast, we explore information sources, share tradecraft tips, and discuss ways to integrate new technology with old-school gumshoe know-how. We dig into myths about PI work and hear hard-won lessons from the field. And for the spy-curious outsider, we offer a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the lives of real spies and PIs. We CAN handle the truth.

  • Lost Assets Found
    Mar 3 2026

    Join Hal and his guest Eileen Moynahan to talk about a little-known resource for executors, private investigators, and anyone who thinks they might have money out there that they've completely forgotten about — or never knew existed.

    Moynahan is a New York PI with many years of experience as an intelligence analyst with the DEA, working drug-trafficking and money laundering cases. Now she runs her own firm, Legacy Estate Organizing & Investigations, which specializes in finding heirs and assets in estate and probate cases. And she's got a new course with PI Education that's all about turning unclaimed property databases into investigative gold mines.

  • Threat Intelligence and Investigations
    Jan 20 2026

    If Jennifer Mackovjak quit working tomorrow, she’d already have a fantastic investigative career under her belt. She worked as a senior detective investigator in the Manhattan DA’s office, before becoming a private investigator. She worked at Kroll, then became a senior VP for investigations at a big risk management firm. And over the years, she’s investigated wrongful convictions for the Innocence Project and Northwestern University’s Center for Wrongful Convictions.

    In 2020, she co-founded 221B Partners, a private investigations and intelligence firm in Chicago. 221B handles pretty high-level work: litigation consulting, fraud investigations, business and public affairs intel, and threat intelligence. In this episode, we'll talk about Mackovjak's career trajectory and find out what threat intelligence and investigations are all about.

  • The Beard and the Dome Talk Crime Fiction, Podcasts, TV, and Movies
    Dec 23 2025

    After a long hiatus, Hal Humphreys ("The Beard") and John Nardizzi ("The Dome") are back to catch up on PI work, wins, and losses, and to share what they love to read, watch, and listen to when they’re not uncovering malfeasance or defending clients. Most of these books, shows, movies, and podcasts are related to crime and investigations. Some only marginally so. Basically, it's stuff they enjoy — as investigators and writers who love a good yarn. We'll publish their full list and some bonus recommendations in Pursuit Magazine next week — keep an eye out for that. Most of all, happy holiday season to all!
