And one of the things I'll never forget, he says, if you're taking a Delta flight from the West Coast to the East Coast, I guarantee that there's a very high chance that somebody is carrying drugs on one of those flights.

Strippers, yeah.

Because people don't suspect.

It's a woman, so people are less suspicious of women, and there's a higher chance that they'll make it, and they are more likely to take the money to do this.

I mean, at least those are the people that he found would agree to do this.

I mean, I don't want to say anything bad about strippers.

Yeah.

It's obviously a terrible idea.

Yeah.

So this guy, El Gringo, decided to talk to me.

And he was the one who contacted me.

He contacted me initially.

And when telling me that he had a story he wanted to share, that he was involved with the cartel.

And then when we started doing the story about the cartel, I reached back out to him and said, actually, I'm doing a story about cartel presence here.

Would you want to?

You know, be on the show.

And he agreed, and he traveled out to me, and we met.

And he said, look, I've been dying to tell this story because if I get whacked, which he thought he might, he wanted his story to be out there.

He wanted somebody to have heard his whole story.
