grilling us, asking us questions, interrupting the filming, not wanting us filming it. I don't want to say too much to get the guys back there in trouble. Obviously, they have to deal with a lot of corruption as well.

And we were sitting around this fireplace just being idiots. We were drinking the local moonshine. So I thought that'd be a cool experience, but it basically tasted like gasoline. The local guy was like, I'm going to go get you guys some of the moonshine. I was like, fuck, sick. Let's get drunk.
