This is the content we need and want , Johnny ! You are climbing the charts fast with this type of amazing content and conversations. Congrats man you’re doing amazing.

[@Ryan-op4ii]

This is therapeutic to listen to as well! Johnny, please have George on for another long session. He could continue to elaborate on Previous stories and also roll back his memories and tell many new ones. . Come on back George. Real deal experience through Mexico. South america and the states. Let’s go back in time! Thanks

[@ImNotMeToday]

This was kinda hard to follow at times but I think dudes being honest. What a legend.

[@anaquintanar9606]

Hands down enjoy the interview best guest you have had by far!

[@Luckk1990]

Bring this man back again, great person.

[@Thunderpussy1234]

We a stole a plane. How much were you getting on board? Uh.. oh.. depends on the plane, This guy is a total faker

[@stevetaterus8303]

More smuggler interviews, i love this stuff!!!

[@HammerDownTime]

Love these interviews!!

[@jimbeam7160]

Great interview, one of the best. This channel is so good. Wonderful focus on the hidden history and colorful characters who flesh out the official straight version of history.

[@systemsandlogistics]

These stories are fascinating! Another excellent episode

[@jasonrogers8754]

The way that Johnny is asking questions like how much are they able to pack on one airplane and things like that are almost like how a federal agent would ask if he's trying to gather information to take somebody down or to build evidence on them.

[@WhatsupPattaya]

More like get all the important details for himself and then try to size up the persons operation to determine how much money they were making to determine how in his eyes successful they are or how big their hustle was

[@abigalanderson7494]

Its important to get these older marijuana prohibition stories before the story tellers pass away! Big up Johnny!😊

[@luckyb4541]

I remember the $650 elbows of brick weed in Edmonton. Took forever to clean the seeds out , get out a Led Zep album and a pack of zigzags and 45 degree angle and scoop scoop you remember right? Then the pot dried up and all you could get was green Morrocan hash, Afghani Black and my fav Blonde Lebanese .

[@charsibaba6960]

Nepalese temple ball was not opiated . If it had white swirls in it ,that was mould. Opium is like a dark grease ,never white . Unlikely to find it mixed into a piece of hash as the O is more expensive.

[@JamesJones-cl3dx]

100%

[@poserexposer718]

Bro!

[@joec024]

This guy knows

[@eliyurdana7960]

Nepalese fingers and there was allot of kinds this was old school

[@GreenIslandWoodworks]

You're right, they were not opiated. While it's possible those veins of white running through the ball could be mold...but mold usually occurs on the exterior if it's a solid mass and has been kept unsealed in a humid environment. These white swirls are probably sugars along with other parts of the resin that separates during the heat/sealed/fermentation/curing/storage stage and can also be on the outside of the block or ball...if the heat/moisture/pressure conditions are right. I don't know specifically how T balls were made, I guess they were fresh, expertly hand rubbed charas, that was formed into cricket balls, then cured with heat and pressure which probably consisted of keeping the ball of just rubbed resin very warm for a week or two to lose some moisture then wrapped/sealed up (or the skin of the ball hardens and acts as a seal?) for months and so that's why there were sometimes white veins or swirls in the ball and why you didn't see these '"swirls" on Afghani or Moroccan as they are dry sifted resin from plant material that has been dried for months. sifted then formed into blocks so there is zero moisture and so no fermentation and separation of the sugars occurs. A microscope or loupe will let you see if it's mold or sugars.

[@nickadams5048]

His story is my story in a different generation as far as from his parents to how he thinks.... This is crazy how similar I think like this guy

[@kimlavergne3822]

Omg …. Know for a fact he’s not lying …and is a good man 😮 Kinda hope he sees this and wonder if he will remember 😊😮😊 always so smart ❤

[@jeremyhula931]

The reason you imagine being a drug kingpin is because of the podcast that you do. You talk about it & listen to it so regularly, it's a part of your daily life.

[@dirtgaming6452]

I imagined getting there for years only ever meet one kingpin years after I wanted to be one

Man, you get the best guests. Thr guys I have never heard of but are unsung heros for all of us old pot dealers! Jesus christ what a fucking story, I love this guy! You can tell he isn't full of shit either.

[@FloridaWVBoy]

Acting like you know the answer to the question all interview long is so annoying and patronizing. Terrible interview habit. Wish Johnny would take a bite of humble pie and just be genuinely interested in Learning the details vs feeling like he’s got to match wits with every smuggler. Great guest.

[@Last_Chance.]

It's called being narcissistic. He doesn't want to seem like someone knows more than him or better than him in any way.

[@bairdseymour]

true

[@zkacyy]

He literally does this every single fucking episode he has people on and then tells their story for them

[@martinnesbitt1483]

Totally agree, patronising as all fek. He'd do better just to listen and then ask questions. Good call glad someone said

[@BenjyMaine]

He’s a former drug dealer and comedian. Why do you expect him to be a different person as an interviewer?

[@nicklewis8249]

......'you don't have anything to plug'......'ye I do!' 😂😂😂😂

[@jasonrogers8754]

Johnny you're really overdoing it on censoring out every single no no word. If you're doing that to get more people to pay for patreon then you just need to stop because it's not working. I've already tried out your patreon episodes and there are no different and there's not much more said then what's actually on your KZbin channel. So at the end of the day it's just a waste of money.

[@Andrew-bb4tf]

Wouldn’t he just be trying to keep ad revenue

[@daveyboy8907]

[@tradeyourselftowealth7149]

He's saying stuff that will get the IRS forensic accountants to come knocking. This shit is never over - and the Feds want money - just ask Mike Ritter - another multi-ton guy Johnny should have on.

[@systemsandlogistics]

There's statute of limitations for this stuff that happened 40-50 years ago. At the end he said it was therapeutic to talk about it

[@vKingLouie]

@@systemsandlogistics yeah but why open yourself up to who knows, the IRS coming after you and all that dumb shit, just because theres statue of limitations on the crime doesn’t mean they can’t get you other ways

If he wasn’t caught and did his time in jail can’t the Feds use his testimony on this show against him? Just curious 🧐.

Some crimes have a statute of limitations and they would need enough evidence beyond a reasonable doubt

So this dude George is netting millions per year in the 1970's. How is he making that money clean? What other cash businesses does he have on the go that he uses to launder all that dough?

[@GreenIslandWoodworks]

Exactly! I kept on waiting for the interviewer to ask what he did with all that money? How did he launder it? Where did he store it, count it? What other toys did he buy? ...but he never did which was frustrating.!

[@Last_Chance.]

As long as you don't spend large amounts you don't have to launder. Keep it in cash and live a normal simple life.
