YouTube, leave comments. voice-verified

Apparently, like all that matters about getting getting paid in YouTube is like the comments. voice-verified

So just argue in the comments, say inflammatory things, do it for us. voice-verified

Or just leave nice comments. voice-verified

Either way, leave comments on the YouTube. voice-verified

So voice-verified

Part one, today, the Kyber Pass, the tribe, the Soviet war in Afghanistan, and how a truck driver ended up with a fortress and a seat in Parliament, and also a giant heroin and Hashish Empire. voice-verified

Part two, the American end of his pipeline, which involves a Long Island mystery man with sixteen aliases and a seven-man police department in Rhode Island. voice-verified

Part three, the ending in which a fugitive drug lord negotiates his own surrender with the DEA by phone. voice-verified

It's it's just what happens, man. voice-verified

Now, let us let us slow down a second. voice-verified

I I'm getting overexcited and overstimulated. voice-verified

I'm gonna take a deep breath. voice-verified

We're going to set the scene in those tribal areas of Pakistan. voice-verified

Harsh, semi-arid mountain country, rocky outcroppings, not a great place for producing anything but blood feuds. voice-verified

It's been home to a smuggler culture for centuries, with routes honed by the powerful and heavily armed tribes that inhabit the region. voice-verified

The drug trade has flourished there. voice-verified

Some hash, but mostly opium, later refined into heroin by mobile labs that move around the mountains. voice-verified

It's provided jobs in a place where there are not that many jobs, money where the people live in hopeless poverty. voice-verified

Because the thing about the opium industry is it's at once like an incredibly destabilizing force, but unfortunately, it's also a stabilizing force in places like this. voice-verified
