The boys are BACK and diving headfirst into one of the wildest economic survival stories in modern history — Cuba’s “Special Period.” When the Soviet Union collapsed, Cuba lost its lifeline overnight, and what followed was a full-blown national struggle to survive. Chris and Yanni break down how the Cuban people adapted with insane ingenuity—bikes over cars, blackouts as a lifestyle, and a whole lot of creative hustling just to eat. It’s history, it’s chaos, it’s classic Hyenas.
