A billion-dollar rivalry, a spy on the inside, and a sting operation for the history books. This isn’t a Netflix drama — it’s a real lawsuit.
In this episode, GTC dives into the explosive case of Rippling vs. Deel, where Rippling alleges Deel deployed a corporate spy in their ranks.
This case has it all and is the exact kind of story that you might not hear about if you’re outside of the cyber security industry. But with a phone being flushed down the toilet and entire building pipes dismantled to find it, trust us it's an exceptional one.

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
