Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger. As always, I'm here with Feedback Friday producer, the can of compressed air, clearing out the crusty detritus from the cracks in this keyboard of life advice, Gabriel Mizrahi. Hitting those K's hard at the top. That's right.
Man, you know, I wish I had a soundbite of, remember that girl who was on My Strange Addiction and she used to inhale the air duster? Yeah.
she's like i'm walking on sunshine what makes you think of that because she was in that can of compressed air she used to inhale all that duster oh was it duster or was it the um whipped cream from the supermarket no it was like keyboard duster oh yeah and she would just inhale it and like her mom i think filmed her to like show her what she looked like when she was high it was really tragic actually though she made a full recovery and is like happily married now from what i understand so so we can laugh about this unexpectedly happy ending to that story yeah
Yeah, yeah, she straightened her ish out. I mean, it's crazy to see people using stuff like inhalants. I don't know how we got on this topic so early in the show. It's going to get heavy later. That's not what the beginning is for.
On the Jordan Harbinger Show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills of the world's most fascinating people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around you. Our mission is to help you become a better informed, more critical thinker.
During the week, we have long-form conversations with a variety of amazing folks, former jihadis, arms traffickers, mafia enforcers, astronauts, neuroscientists. This week, we had Scott Galloway, author of Algebra of Wealth, not just on investing, but how wealth actually builds, career advice, great for anyone at any age, any stage of their career.
Scott and I often go well off book, off the book that he writes, because I always have great questions for him. We always have a great conversation. Always a good episode with Scott Galloway. Also, we had a Skeptical Sunday last Sunday on fluoride. Fluoride in the water, namely.
On Fridays, though, we take your letters, offer advice, dredge up super weird stories from our highly questionable pasts. Speaking of which, Gabe, did I ever tell you I witnessed a double murder in Panama? I'm sorry, what? Yeah, it was, so this made national news. Double murder. Murder in Panama?
When I was working at the embassy in Panama, this is like in 2002. There's so many weird things and we haven't even gotten into the story.
So I had an internship there and I ended up working with like these anti-narco people. Sure. All that I did was book travel for Panamanian officials to go to Las Vegas and party and attend meetings, air quotes, with people from Washington, D.C. The whole thing was like, please cooperate with us because your country is a massive transit point for cocaine.
And they're like, cool, I think we should talk about this at a five-star hotel in Las Vegas for five days. And they're like, Jordan, book it.
So we can stop those dime bags from coming in. No, it's stop kilos of cocaine. And by stop, I mean do absolutely nothing to stem the flow of narcotics. But anyway. Yeah. There's an island, I want to say it's called Bocas del Toro or something like that. It was like a sort of vacation-y spot. And we went to these islands and we were just walking around.
We see this huge crowd of people outside our hotel, across the street. There was sort of like a local bar. And then I noticed like people are screaming. screaming. And then I saw people standing on the roof of our hotel and like leaning out the window and they're like, guys, get in the hotel quickly. You better get out of there.
And we were just like, okay, but you're just one floor up on the roof. So obviously it's not gunfire or anything. And we ran in our hotel and we ran up to where those guys were because they were like hanging out on the roof essentially that was accessible. And we're like, what's up?
and they were like, look down there, and there's people fighting, and this dude just busts out a knife and stabs these two dudes, and they just collapse into a massive puddle of blood. Everyone clears out, people are screaming. I go down there later, because I'm like, there's two dead guys or dying guys in the road. No one comes to help, of course.
And I just see these two dudes, they're just dead. They're dying, and they're bleeding out, and there's nothing anyone can do. It's this massive, massive trauma. So intense for everybody.
And then the police came overnight at some point and not even, they literally just drew chalk around the bodies like they would in a movie from 1945 or whatever. Yeah. And then they put like little flags of where stuff was, which is funny. Like, what are you flagging? There's no shell casings, nothing. And they put like a crappy barrier of tape, but they left all the blood, everything.
