Guns, Drugs, and Hollywood Lies: David Packouz’s Untold "War Dogs" Confessions | Ep. 249 | Pt 1


Listen Later

This week we sit down with David Packouz—former arms dealer, the real story behind War Dogs. He breaks down how he landed huge U.S. defense contracts in his twenties, what the movie nailed, what it didn’t, and the parts Hollywood skipped.

It’s blunt talk about ambition, shortcuts, and fallout. Specifics, not fluff. After this, you won’t see the film—or that industry—the same way.
