Yes, that came across. He accepts all without excuses, the prison years, the betrayals, loss of family life; it was a job he did well, and a way of life. He admits it'2s not a good thing. The fact that he is alive to tell his story is a better ending than so many others.

It doesn't matter because people have a choice to buy coke or Crack or Mike's hard lemonade or 100% alcohol vodka. Whether something should be illegal or not is up for debate but when something is illegal people like Pablo can't stop at selling something that's illegal they have to do EVERYTHING illegal the second they get away with one thing

Listen...this was an intriguing story, the part that hit me the hardest was the wife. For a man to come home after running rampant left right and diagonal on dangerous missions, not being there when his kids grew old. Countless birthdays and graduations, wedding anniversaries, missed..and he comes home to a cooked meal, and his clothes still there. not to mention he's the reason why his wife is a felon, and she still stayed.. Listen, You could win the lottery. Get struck by lightning. Book a trip to north Korea and shoot rock paper scissors with Kim jong UN before you EVER...EVER...find a woman this loyal these days. Out of all the fortunes this man has earned throughout his life, she was the true prized possession.

This dude is a white man in the American criminal justice system. The cj system closed a blind eye to him and gave him the benefit of the doubt. I.e. the man had a bootlegging outfit going that exploded and he never faced cj consequences. It's alot easier for a white man to be able to tell this type of story than a man of color. Hell, his grandfather shot a man in cold blood in court and got pardoned by the Governor. I don't respect this guy as no OG. He benefitted by being a white man in a white man's world.

He’s a terrible interviewer. He doesn’t ask questions, he TELLS the interviewee about his own life. Instead of asking him something like: “how did you get started into the life, and at what age”. He says :” so you got into selling drugs at 12 when you lived in Georgia. You learned to fly at 19 right? But you were working with the fire department too. So you ended up switching to flying more, right?” “Yes” “And then you found out about the price difference in Mexico, right?” “Yes.” “So you brought it back north and made some money.” “Yes” He doesn’t even let the guy tell the story he wants to show off how much he knows about the guy, and thinks he knows everything and is the smartest guy in the room.”OK” “OK”

Truly a great guy huh? This man polluted countries with drugs, watched people killed before his very eyes, worked for tyrants who killed and tortured innocent families just to induce fear. Yeah such a great stand up guy he is. You see the men he worked next to at that fire department or farmers for 20k a year, those were great /stand-up guys. They worked hard for little money. But they went home every night to their wives and kids. Raised them with love, to be decent and respectful, to honor the values of hard work. How many people do you think died from the drugs this man brought into America and other countries? This man was a piece of shit who looked for the easy way to make a buck. Idiot's like you glorify these people, you are no different and will be judged one day just as he will. So till then, good luck in life, keep looking up to people like him and you one day spend eternity with him and all your other murdering heroes

Just listening to this man you realize the kind of nerves it would take to live this life is one in a billion. When asked how did your family take being on the run his answer was my wife loved traveling. 😆 now just imagine being on the run from the American government your partner was just assassinated and you and your wife just having the time of your life.

You guys… I was at work last night and this guy’s smiling at me and his wife is smiling at me, they loved my sparkly top. He kept singing Rhinestone Cowboy and then I stopped and looked at him and he goes “Lisa… I have been married to my wife for 60 years. 30 of them I was away for smuggling tons of drugs for Pablo Escobar. She stood by me the whole time.” I start crying and we all smile and it was THIS GUY. He’s got sparkly eyes and his wife is a gorgeous angel. They are coming back when I’m not so busy because I told them I’m not finished with this conversation but was super busy. I didn’t know this story but going to hold off and hear it from the horse’s mouth. Since he’s happy to share it, I’m all ears. I’ve clearly been through some pretty major shit too for anyone with the eyes to see and the ears to hear, and that wasn’t lost on them. His wife Marrie told me she feels my soul and I know she does.

It was illegal, he did his time, no need to dwell.

I’d love to know what VLAD pays these people to do these interviewees. And you have to admire VLAD’s preparation.

Vlad is one of the worst popular crime/hip hop journalists on KZbin. He does his background research incredibly well and then spends the entire interview telling their story for them, everytime. Never elaborating or asking more about an interesting story or remark, just moving on to the next research point, completely unrelated from one another. The amazing stories are what get this channel by, the interview technique is just painful to watch at times.

I think there's this narrative Vlad tries to push that all this is bad - and on some level it is. But at the same time this is the human story and it's really much more complex and gray than just a dual outcome. Roger's story represents this more clearly than I've ever heard before and I'm glad he (Roger) kept true to who he was and not get talked into a nice clean box of good or bad.

Why should he feel guilty? If a family members dies of obesity do you blame the farmer who grows the sugar, the person who transports it, the factory that refines it into cakes ect, the shop who sells you it or the person who eats it. Also you can't argue the destruction power of something while only sitting 1 eg when there's so many other factors involved like your friends health to begin with

1:15:12 this is the inevitable part of a Vlad interview where he thanks the person then proceeds to try and criticize their life story. Vlad always thinks he has to play mr. Moral high ground. He has to keep up this act so about ending on a “lesson” so that when he’s criticized about exploiting these dudes, he can say, “but I told this dude he did 30 years for his decisions.” This dude is unshakable though, he looks at Vlad like, “so what’s your point here buddy?”

Both my uncles flew for the Medellin cartel as well. They become pilots at 20 I believe. They would fly out of Miami airport when someone approached them to fly a plane to Columbia for x amount of money. They kept doing it until the feds swatted my grandmothers house. They did time in a Columbia prison after their plane crushed. The stories I’ve heard are nuts lol. They are in their late 60s now. They served their time and now do well for themselves

Seemed like you really only cared about Barry's story and not Rogers when Rogers story is a lot better than Barry's. His story on Konkrete here on KZbin is absolutely amazing and makes Barry's story seem boring. Roger is the one that needs a movie or series.
