On this episode, Will sits down with former paramilitary law enforcement officer from Mexico, Ed Calderon, who draws on his first-hand experience taking on the vicious drug cartels of Mexico.

Ed goes deep inside how the cartel work and explains why the introduction of fentanyl to the drug market is killing thousands of Americans. Plus, Will and Ed break down the intricate geopolitics of who is involved with the Mexican drug cartels that turn the issue into something that goes far beyond just the southern border crisis.
