Roger flew me from Mexico to Bastrop Texas back in 1972. I won't go into details but this man saved my life. I always wondered what happened to him. Glad to see he's still alive and doing well.
I was in jail with this man in West Australia andnwe share the same last name worked in the same workshop in Casuarina Prison in the print shop. He was such a gentleman. I feel privileged to have met and conversated with this great man
Too bad the other two need to step it up... They should be a lot more respectful..making jokes about someone been tortured.. These two immature wannabe Rogans would have died as soon as they saw that hotpepper
Powerful quote “a bird doesn’t have the child before it prepares a nest.” Very true. There are many with no guidance or role model to guide them for this. Christ prepares a home before we enter heaven, he prepared himself for the cross before we may have penance, he prepared a plan before the world was made. We need to teach responsibility and consequences.
Just saw the end, that was my idea, make the petty crime criminals into tradesmen, carpenters, etc. they should move cities never to return their old neighborhood to avoid the crowd that brought them down too.
Ive been listening to podcast from day 1 but this episode is in the top 5. Daaammnnn I could listen to his stories whole day.. It’s even the first time that pat en Adam barely asked questions bc of his stories..
Wow wow!!! What an interview with this gentleman Roger Reaves. That goes to show you the mercy of God its never too late to turn your life around no matter what you have done and no matter how old you are. I'm listening to Roger and its like he was directing a movie straight out of Hollywood. God Bless you Roger and Thank you PBD for such awesome interviews you have done. Please bring back to finish the 90% of his story lol.😀😉👍👍
I like Rogers idea of Prison Reform. When I did my prison time I spent every day working on myself. Spiritually, Mentally, Physically. Studying, Working out and figuring out who I was, and where I wanted to go. I refused to allow the state to take this time from me, and instead used it to work on myself.
@@joelbest5491 I've seen it. Best thing about Shawn is he's not scared to sit down and do a 6 hour interview. He doesn't rush his guests let's them tell their story how they want to tell it.
THIS IS WHY THIS IS THE BEST SHOW OUT THERE I DIDNT THINK IT WOULD BE THIS GOOD BUT WOW THIS COULD BE THE BEST SHOW YOU GUYS HAVE DONE YET KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!
Check out lex Friedmans interview it’s better. The problem with Patrick is he knows all the facts all the story’s and pushes people keeps interrupting he might as well sit there by him self and tell the story completely unnatural
He's a monster 👻 👽. U see a baby 👶 get eaten by mountain 🦁. That don't effect your humanity. Yep u are of Satan. And he say he's a Christian ✝️ 🙄. I must say Yahweh spare his life. He should be telling people about YAH MERCY 🥺. TELLING PEOPLE TO REPENT AND BE BAPTIZED IN JESUS CHRIST. ACTS 2:38
Best episode ever!!! I could listen to him all day. Fascinating stories!! You should bring him back and just let him tell more of things that happened to him for 2 or 3 hours.
1:23:15 - I fired my parents. For gross negligence. When I realised that nothing I did would ever be good enough for them, life began. Now, I focus on pleasing Yehovah and I'm pretty sure I'm on the right path.
I grew up in Baton Rouge during this time , Barry was highly regarded in the community. “ Double Crossed “ is a much more accurate account of the Barry Seal story played by Dennis Hopper. It was an older HBO film I believe.
Once again another AMAZING podcast thank you so much , I particularly liked when he said family planning is important , “a bird builds a nest before laying a egg but humans don’t do the same”
Just popped in to say I miss the old style of podcast, I never missed an episode. Now I only watch when there is a guest that interests me, which is very rare.
Same here. Used to look forward to every podcast with the old crew in the garage, debating and discussing. This will be the first PBD podcast I’ll watch in months, only because of the guest.
This should have been an old Valuetainment episode like Sammy The Bull. Rodgers interview on the Lex Friedman podcast is 100% better. Lex let's him talk to 2.5 hours straight without interrupting him.
I have watched other interviews of this man! Great man! I have a similarish/issshh story myself. Thank god it didn’t pan out the way things ended..!! Bless this man!!!
Terrific interview with such an interesting American ! Loved it ! What a hell of an adventure! How can one not like/love Roger ? Bring him back ! Make a better movie than American Made about Rogers life and it will be a smash hit ! Cheers guys and Roger ….!
He's on lex friedmans podcast. I encourage everyone to listen. His wife joins at the end and is just as described 💚 & if you enjoy and appreciate people like Roger you would love lex. Very unique person. A genius MIT scientist that believes in love and compassion above all else.
What Roger said about prison reform sounds spot on. If we want prisoners to be productive citizens, we need to give them the tools to do it (instead of the revolving door “for profit” system we have now). Excellent podcast!
I disagree. Roger had all kinds of different trades and made a decent living, BUT he decided to go full time smuggling drugs, and it didn't keep him out of jail or prison. Roger himself returned many times, so it didn't work.
Slavery is free and evil and still exists read the 13th and 14th amendment it’s only a paragraph!! He says that slavery is still legal so long as one person is duly convicted of a crime, which means you’re convicted of a crime slavery still legal literally as well as what constitutes a crime. What’s the definition that’s what’s also changed number one number two is the way they convict you by a jury is only, needing most of the people to say guilty and your convicted even if a few people or a couple people say not guilty they can still convict you. It is the most observed thing states if one person says not guilty you should be let off and not be tried again let alone be convicted , so they’ve added all that BS to the constitution 1865 that is pure. I don’t like to say Tierney because I know the world’s dangerous but a lot of stuff revolves around if you owe the government a few dollars they can take you to jail because you know, can’t pay ticket or , etc. etc. Driving license suspended, or being short on health care money so someone can’t get a prescription they need and you go to jail it’s all about money to much , you pay a doctor 150$ and you get a prescription card for marijuana, every 7 months in Florida or else you go to jail still over a 2$ worth of green yes 2$ dollars two dollars , and A lot of law still plants frames people for small stuff to go up in rank and no one believes people but I know because I’ve been framed from tiny stuff too , and officers been caught on camera doing it 50times recently a private Eye caught an officer dropping stuff in people cars finally gottem on camera thank GOD!!! !!! Look it up on YOUTUbE God watches over his people karma got him !! But anyway free Labor is still in affect literally Legal slavery , and even prescription concentrate ThC or orals is a Felony in Florida if prescription isn’t up to date , or 2nd degree felony for 3grams three grams of concentrate THC Even tho it’s in your family’s name In the bottle they’ll dump it out and put it in something else and claim no name was on it !!! This happens and happens more than y’all think on my nieces life For example , crooked But I just Pray for em that’s all you can do , Also planted other felony street drugs or meds on people on camera look it up on you tube look hard officer recently 👮 got caught like 50times doing it to people saw em one time and BOom that’s all it took to go back and look several times and kept catching him more and more , Yall stay safe and off the roads as much as possible tyranny and stay away from people they’re trouble don’t go out at night especially!!
Great podcast. The two men asking Roger questions was spot on as I am trying to understand why he would do it. Roger says prisoners should learn a trade, BUT Roger had different trades. Pilot, fireman, sold antiques, and etc. All those trades didn't keep Roger from smuggling cocaine, and returning to prison numerous times. Why? It didn't keep him from going back. Roger had a lot of different trades that other prisoners don't have, but it didn't work with Roger, now did it? I noticed the two men were trying to understand the same thing that I was trying to understand. Roger acts like smuggling cocaine is okay, and making millions is what mattered to him. The LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Roger talks like he is a nice christian family man, thinks he is a great parent, and never taking responsibility that he smuggled drugs that could hurt families, parents, or other children that destroys others lives. The story of the lion eating the baby didn't seem to phase Roger. To me it is strange, and something is way off about him. I do hope he has changed his life around, and helps others understand it's not ok to do that kind of work no matter how good the money is for doing it. Yes his story is facinating, but it was wrong what he did, and he is asked 3 times, but he skirted around it. I do hope Roger has changed his ways, and I do wish him well.
I disagree. Roger's story is fascinating, but they were trying to get to the root of why Roger kept going back to jail & prison himself when he had all kinds of trades to make a living. Unlike a lot of prisoners. Roger makes the suggestion at the end, but his answer is off. Roger had a private pilot license, he was a fireman, did contstruction work, and sold antiques on the side. Roger started just made a choice to do it full time smuggling cocaine. Why? It doesn't make sense, his trades didn't keep him out of prison and he went 20 something times. Think about it. Roger doesn't make sense. Something isn't right about it.They were trying to understand the reason just like myself. Something made him keep doing it, maybe it could just be he got greedy and loved money way too much
I agree with the parenting things , especially for those who didn’t have good fathers and are trying to be good fathers but are starting from 0 because they never experienced it , now that does not mean a father that didn’t have a father can only be a good father with help but it does having the help/advice it helps a lot
"A mountain lion ate the baby. Nothing left but a head and some diapers." I swear when he says it, there could be someone baking oatmeal cookies while it's happening.
Please bring him back I listened to this one 4 months later… Wow what a story. I never know Barry Seal worked for somebody. When I’ve herd Barry’s story it was always told as it he was a lone operator.
"End of the Spear" (2005) movie "Jungle Pilot: The Story of Nate Saint, Martyred Missionary to Ecuador" by Russell Hitt "Nate Saint: On a Wing and a Prayer" by Janet and George Benge (1998 - Christian Heroes: Then & Now)
What am I missing? This man has surely caused heartbreak and thousands of lives to be lost due to his activities flying guns and drugs across borders etc. His story is fascinating and he tells it well but shows no sign of regret for the resultant havoc and has become a living hero, please tell me where I have gone wrong.
Agree. Jesus Christ Pablo Escobar is the least interesting thing about his life but seems PBD was just on that or asking him questions he’d just answered 5 minutes earlier
I love and respect this man a lot. He's just so pleasant and thoughtful. If you liked this interview I encourage you to listen to him on lex Friedman, it's a bit longer and more in depth. Plus, his wife joins towards the end, & she's just as he described her. I wish there to be more people like them.
Imagine having this level of thrill-seeking and rugged doggedness against all odds. It's stubborn country boys like this why some used to say, "One rebel soldier could whip ten Yankees.".
Don’t glorify this jackass. You should se the legacy of Escobar on the city of Medellin. I have never seen so many child prostitutes, kids sniffing glue, broken people, crazed maniacs so high they charge at you, for no reason, it is unreal. This guy should be ashamed of himself.
...Unless those Yankees were Grant or Sherman, in which case, the slave-holding Southerners would fall dead by the wagon-load, or, more likely, they'd relinquish their rifles...like the bigoted cowards they were. Stonewall Jackson was a coward.
You don't think there's country boys up North? You Southern boys need to get outside the ten mile radius that you grew up in! I've lived in Texas and Georgia and they've got nothing on Wisconsin, Michigan or Pennsylvania ! There's more deer hunters per capita in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin than any state in the country!
Gotta say was excited to see Roger Reeve and will always listen to his stories, but Pat and Adam aren’t the guys to let him tell them. Anyone who hasn’t should listen to the Lex Friedman one.
BRING HIM BACK!!! PART 2 & 3 IS A MUST! GREAT EPISODE. I can listen to him speak ALL DAY LONG.
That’s the first thing I thought when it was over! Pat needs to bring him back on!
Check out lex Friedmans interview with him
@@martin8829 thanks I sure will.
Deadass
@@martin8829 that's the best one
Roger flew me from Mexico to Bastrop Texas back in 1972. I won't go into details but this man saved my life. I always wondered what happened to him. Glad to see he's still alive and doing well.
you cant say that without any context! you think whatever it is people will come after you 50 years later come on plz tell your story
@@juicy4joey it probably hurts him to speak on it in detail
Are you part of the family that he smuggled into the country? I feel like they were from Colombia tho...
Let’s hear the story?!?!?
Going loco,were we,ha ha?
I was in jail with this man in West Australia andnwe share the same last name worked in the same workshop in Casuarina Prison in the print shop. He was such a gentleman. I feel privileged to have met and conversated with this great man
My GOODNESS. Wow 😮 Beautiful.
Now THIS is a podcast. Completely hooked from the moment Roger started talking.
Me 2!!
Go listen to his Lex Friedman interview. It's 2.5 hours long and absolutely amazing!! Lex let's him talk the entire time!
That GA accent
Too bad the other two need to step it up... They should be a lot more respectful..making jokes about someone been tortured..
These two immature wannabe Rogans would have died as soon as they saw that hotpepper
Touché
The father part really touched me man, I grew up with out a father figure and shit….. it’s an important part of life that a lot of us miss out on.
Boys NEED their fathers. I wish I had one
YOU HAVE HIM IN YOUR SPRIT,HIS NAME IS GOD THE FATHER 🙏. THE FATHER,SON,AND HOLY SPIRIT MAKE YOU A MAN AS WHOLE💪🙏
This gentleman is the kind you’d enjoy sitting and chatting with everyday after work and every weekend
Powerful quote “a bird doesn’t have the child before it prepares a nest.” Very true. There are many with no guidance or role model to guide them for this.

I couldnt stop thinking of this quote either
Religious people can't see anything without putting a god somehow. Lol
I really thank all of yous 💯 this means a lot to me tuning in from Ontario 🇨🇦
You have to bring Roger back for part 2 & 3 !!! Awesome interview with over the top stories!!!
💯 This!!!!
Ive been listening to podcast from day 1 but this episode is in the top 5. Daaammnnn I could listen to his stories whole day.. It’s even the first time that pat en Adam barely asked questions bc of his stories..
This man, is a man's man. Genius on prison reform on teaching a trade. Blessings.
RR is a classy man!! He stood-up all 33 yrs..
THAT SPEAKS VOLUME!!
I could listen to this man talk all day
Roger is the definition of Integrity 🏆
Wow wow!!! What an interview with this gentleman Roger Reaves. That goes to show you the mercy of God its never too late to turn your life around no matter what you have done and no matter how old you are. I'm listening to Roger and its like he was directing a movie straight out of Hollywood. God Bless you Roger and Thank you PBD for such awesome interviews you have done.

'These teeth are not my own...I left THEM in a man's neck...'
Why?
'He was winning.' lol
I could listen to Old School's stories for days and never get bored!
One of the best episodes on PBD. Amazing story. I couldn’t stop listening.
Was one of the worst really Patrick was rushing him through the entire thing. This man's story's are fsr better then what you got here.
@@kick_then_shift Shawn Ryan just interviewed him on his show. It was better
@@joelbest5491 I've seen it. Best thing about Shawn is he's not scared to sit down and do a 6 hour interview. He doesn't rush his guests let's them tell their story how they want to tell it.

Thank you! Mr Reaves is such a wonderful guest!
Protect Reaves at all cost in this world such fascinating man really show how complex Life is and still he holds a big heart and smile ❤❤
He tells you what happened along his journeys but doesn't tell you about the journey itself. Smart man! He's extremely Disciplined in the mind
This guy is just incredible. Hits me in the heart every time I hear him tell his story.
Roger reeves is just a legit good guy and he always paints everyone in an honest light, other people just want to make everyone seem like monsters.
He's got class & he doesn't speak poorly of others. Good traits in that life.
He's a monster 👻 👽. U see a baby 👶 get eaten by mountain 🦁. That don't effect your humanity. Yep u are of Satan. And he say he's a Christian ✝️ 🙄. I must say Yahweh spare his life. He should be telling people about YAH MERCY 🥺. TELLING PEOPLE TO REPENT AND BE BAPTIZED IN JESUS CHRIST. ACTS 2:38
@Jesse Jones and this is why people are always so annoyed by Christians.
My favourite PBD podcast so far....amazing!
Best episode ever!!! I could listen to him all day. Fascinating stories!! You should bring him back and just let him tell more of things that happened to him for 2 or 3 hours.
This is the podcast that got me listening to PBD podcast. Good stuff.

Perfectly pronouncing Spanish words with a thick Georgian accent. Roger is 💯
This exactly why i love PBD. What an absolutely phenomenal story.
Netflix I can see making a series on this man God bless him 👏🏼
I could listen to him tell stories for a week! Great podcast PBD.
I’m reading his book Smuggler right now, it’s fantastic. Highly recommend.
I grew up in Baton Rouge during this time , Barry was highly regarded in the community.
“ Double Crossed “ is a much more accurate account of the Barry Seal story played by Dennis Hopper. It was an older HBO film I believe.
Lead • Respect • Improve • Love
Once again another AMAZING podcast thank you so much , I particularly liked when he said family planning is important , “a bird builds a nest before laying a egg but humans don’t do the same”
It’s usually a 2 hour show. We want the full 2 hours minimum
Dude should have his own podcast
7 minutes in and i love this guy lol he's awesome
Ole Roger..this dude was born to be an OutLaw..what a character..could you just imagine him being your Grandpa even?!
This is more entertaining than watching a movie. This might be my favorite episode.
DEFINITELY NEED MORE EPISODES WITH THIS LEGEND
Just popped in to say I miss the old style of podcast, I never missed an episode. Now I only watch when there is a guest that interests me, which is very rare.
I agree with you. Smugglers, murders, cartel, CIA …
Same here. Used to look forward to every podcast with the old crew in the garage, debating and discussing. This will be the first PBD podcast I’ll watch in months, only because of the guest.
You nailed it. The old crew was awesome.
This should have been an old Valuetainment episode like Sammy The Bull. Rodgers interview on the Lex Friedman podcast is 100% better. Lex let's him talk to 2.5 hours straight without interrupting him.
Agreed, I miss that cozy huddled feel of the old studio.
Obsessed! Amazing story telling with a smooth and silky voice.
Please have Roger back! He’s a very interesting person.
As I was listening I thought this guy is awesome! And just a treat to listen to.
Then saw the comments and probably the most liked ever!
Man getting ride motorcycles with Pablo is crazy 🔥🔥🔥
I have watched other interviews of this man! Great man! I have a similarish/issshh story myself. Thank god it didn’t pan out the way things ended..!! Bless this man!!!
An interview with Carlos Lehder would be sick!!!! He was released from prison last year
Fire useless adam.
Imagine the stories he would tell if he could still remember them
Yea thats what were missing
Most incredible INTERVIEW I have ever heard… I wish I could meet Roger… We have much in common and KNOW the GRACE of God.
Roger needs to be a repeat guest on the show. Fly him back
Pat has a funny sense of humor, liked the part where he asked the guest if he ever tried to introduce Jesus to Pablo Escobar...LOL
Patrick you are the best interviewer and , always have a message in your podcast.. Thank You
Seriously this is the BEST interview I've seen from PBD
💯♥️
What a powerful interview !!! Love it
Great podCast i wish it was longer i seen Roger on a podcast of Lex Fridmans it went longer and had more details anyway great one i love this guy
A true ICON, English hero, leader and captain, what a legend!
Terrific interview with such an interesting American ! Loved it ! What a hell of an adventure! How can one not like/love Roger ? Bring him back ! Make a better movie than American Made about Rogers life and it will be a smash hit ! Cheers guys and Roger ….!
This should of been a 3 hour podcast... 💯
This was a good interview choice Pat! Really enjoyed his story
What a interview,PBD you WOW,the smuggler absolute LEGEND...
What a story is an understatement!
He really is a great story teller. Wish I had that ability, I could’ve listened to him for another 2 or 3 hours more.
Maybe he's not a great story teller. Maybe he has great stories to tell?
He's on lex friedmans podcast. I encourage everyone to listen. His wife joins at the end and is just as described 💚 & if you enjoy and appreciate people like Roger you would love lex. Very unique person. A genius MIT scientist that believes in love and compassion above all else.
Stop wishing and start doing! I’m actively reading about and applying good storytelling techniques. There’s a lot of content on the subject.
He does the narration on the audiobook format, and that alone, is all I needed to know.
It’s hard to be a bad story when it’s your own. can’t fuck it up that bad. his ability to paint a picture is on another level.
What Roger said about prison reform sounds spot on. If we want prisoners to be productive citizens, we need to give them the tools to do it (instead of the revolving door “for profit” system we have now). Excellent podcast!
unfortunately I dont think it will ever change , just like curing cancer - too much $$$ to be made.
I disagree. Roger had all kinds of different trades and made a decent living, BUT he decided to go full time smuggling drugs, and it didn't keep him out of jail or prison. Roger himself returned many times, so it didn't work.

Great podcast. The two men asking Roger questions was spot on as I am trying to understand why he would do it. Roger says prisoners should learn a trade, BUT Roger had different trades.

This guy needs his own show! Wow, what a cool dude!
We went from Roger telling a crazy story to Pat getting emotional talking about how important it is to raise kid for a 10 minute rant.
He loves listening to himself talk

Go listen to his Lex Friedman interview. 2.5 hours of non stop uninterrupted stories by Rodger.
I will! thank you
Absolutely riveting interview! Fantastic show guys!!!
The PBD podcast is underrated
Nope. With adam this place is like VladTV.
This is amazing. I want to see this guy live.
His story/book are going to be a BANGER series on Netflix. Looking forward to it! #RangeMediaPartners
I agree with the parenting things , especially for those who didn’t have good fathers and are trying to be good fathers but are starting from 0 because they never experienced it , now that does not mean a father that didn’t have a father can only be a good father with help but it does having the help/advice it helps a lot
Yes Biggie did say never get high on your own supply, but that was 1997. It was stated in movie Scarface in 1982.
That's so true
"A mountain lion ate the baby. Nothing left but a head and some diapers." I swear when he says it, there could be someone baking oatmeal cookies while it's happening.
Absolutely love what you're doing Patrick keep up the good work.👍
Can’t wait for the series
Invest and get this man a podcast , he will make you millions !
The co host is a vibe killer
Totally!
100%
100 percent what a douche
This one is great!
This one was super dope! I have no money, so I’ll try to smuggle his book somewhere. But YNFM bought 2 versions❤❤
Great episode! Really enjoyed the stories
Please bring him back I listened to this one 4 months later…
Wow what a story. I never know Barry Seal worked for somebody. When I’ve herd Barry’s story it was always told as it he was a lone operator.
Awesome interview !
This is a guy I would want to meet at a bar while all my boring friends and girlfriend left while I’m there listening to every detail
We live in the most best times to see these interviews
"End of the Spear" (2005) movie

Man,i can't remember when i enjoyed so much listening podcast. Great job Patrick, amazing guest and great questions. 👌👌👏
Roger is awesome his interview on the Lex Friedman was amazing. More of his story without dumb questions
Agree. Jesus Christ Pablo Escobar is the least interesting thing about his life but seems PBD was just on that or asking him questions he’d just answered 5 minutes earlier
This was absolutely terrible. Roger as always is a very polite and respectful man. They don't have a clue
I love and respect this man a lot. He's just so pleasant and thoughtful. If you liked this interview I encourage you to listen to him on lex Friedman, it's a bit longer and more in depth. Plus, his wife joins towards the end, & she's just as he described her. I wish there to be more people like them.
That particular episode is a must for a long distant driving.
Love and respect a former drug smuggler???
Imagine having this level of thrill-seeking and rugged doggedness against all odds. It's stubborn country boys like this why some used to say, "One rebel soldier could whip ten Yankees.".
Haha he is stubborn
Don’t glorify this jackass. You should se the legacy of Escobar on the city of Medellin. I have never seen so many child prostitutes, kids sniffing glue, broken people, crazed maniacs so high they charge at you, for no reason, it is unreal. This guy should be ashamed of himself.
Times have changed. It's a suicide mission now make no mistakes
...Unless those Yankees were Grant or Sherman, in which case, the slave-holding Southerners would fall dead by the wagon-load, or, more likely, they'd relinquish their rifles...like the bigoted cowards they were. Stonewall Jackson was a coward.
You don't think there's country boys up North? You Southern boys need to get outside the ten mile radius that you grew up in!
I've lived in Texas and Georgia and they've got nothing on Wisconsin, Michigan or Pennsylvania ! There's more deer hunters per capita in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin than any state in the country!
LOVE this conversation. So interesting. Love your views on fatherhood and parenting. Please have Roger back. He’s the coolest.
Gotta say was excited to see Roger Reeve and will always listen to his stories, but Pat and Adam aren’t the guys to let him tell them.
Anyone who hasn’t should listen to the Lex Friedman one.
Trying to fix the product after it's been broken for 18 years. I felt that so much man. It's exhausting 😪
Fuck yes! Seen Roger on a couple of other Podcasts.. His story and the way he tells it for his age, is amazing. Very interesting!
Fatherhood, boys to men, dialog was precious. Respect, Thank you.
And sooooo we’ve come to the end of the road.
Please bring him back! Amazing man
My brother was in Perth jail with him in Australia.
Got his book...epic tail.
Super sweet dude.
