in case anyone is interested, the episodes are coming out on Spotify. Seems like it would have been more professional, or at least courteous, to let people know that in their description or something but whatever.

Curious about why Harrelson's sons aren't reaching out to Catherine Chagra(Jimmy Chagra's daughter)to make a movie based on the true story of Catherine Chagra's book based on her father Jimmy Chagra, along with this podcast. Catherine is the author of a true story based on the life of her father Jimmy Chagra who was accused of hiring Harrelson, and the biggest drug smuggler of marijuana in the United States of America! Jimmy was also a high stakes gambler who made his millions in a world of luxury in Las Vegas! A film about risking it all with whatever hand you are dealt.
