Except for people who were abroad for work, everyone here has made really bad decisions.
gotta ask why u dident say ya at the start then rat them out at airport lol
how do u beleive in god when A NUN DID THIS TO YALL lol wow
she just sounds cocky she deserved to be locked up anyways lol
made me tear up when I found out he talked to his daughter first 😢
Jim from best case worst case!
I love it when scumbag drug users, traffickers, pushers get busted!! I think it's funny as hell
love the podcast, hate all the same freaking ads.
started strong but these stories get less believable as it goes from episode to episode. Entertaining to a point
this one sounds half real/ half bs
Horrible what he went through but he was a willing trafficker, knowing fully what the risk was 🤷🏻♂️
Fascinating insight. Thankyou
I call absolute BULLSHIT on this! My "stepmother" has been in Australia for about 22 years, her accent is 20 times stronger/thicker than this woman's. My "stepmother" Eyeroll.. . was pregnant with another man's kid too! They didn't have an ounce of trouble.
I don't think this episode works well as a podcast - too many characters involved and too much rapid switching between them.
whoever the main narrator is should be a writer or at least write a book about this situation. The vivid details and honest self assessments and walking us through each moment, feeling every feeling and thinking every thought right along with the storyteller
please bring this show back
from the sound of it Amanda's family wasn't doing much to secure their release, she's telling a story of how he mother worked "tirelessly "to get her released. so what's the truth?
Please reboot this show. I was watching the TV version of it on a plane, but I dont have Natl Geographic channel at home
Booo
no more new episodes?
