Pablo Escobar is a household name, known for his reign of terror in Colombia’s cocaine wars. But it wasn’t always that way. The leader of one of the world’s most infamous drug cartels fought his way to the top throughout the 1970s and 80s. Escobar’s Medellin cartel was determined to extinguish its main rival — the Cali cartel, but with billions of dollars at stake, trade disputes quickly turned into actual battles with body counts. The new season of Business Wars goes deep into the battles between the Cali and Medellin cartels, who will stop at nothing to win market dominance.
