124. FBI Informant | Mark Whitacre

  • Summary

  • Mark Whitacre is the highest-level executive to ever turn whistleblower in U.S. history. His undercover work with the FBI during the ADM scandal inspired the major motion picture, "The Informant," starring Matt Damon as Mark Whitacre. And was the inspiration for the Discovery Channel Documentary, titled "Undercover" which is linked below.

    In this podcast, Mark recounts his early years, education, career, and time with Archer Daniels Midland. He shares how his life was transformed when he found faith in prison and has since dedicated his life to serving others and spreading the message of redemption through Jesus Christ.
