    The fact that the bank manager still
    A) was the bank manager
    B) kept the agent's card
    C) knew the person he was waiting for
    is amazing.
    Different time and place.

      I honestly felt the same way, not so much that he had to go to prison for what he did since he was guilty, but for me it was more so to the fact that they outright deceived him to get him back there. I couldn’t help but wonder if that was illegal even, something like false pretenses but idk much about that sort of thing so no clue. 😅

    • @WarLoard2013
      @WarLoard2013 2 місяці тому

      @CheeferSutherland oh yeah absolutely what he did was wrong moral and legally speaking. But he didn't even get anything no monetary value was lost, he got caught and posted ball. Then he left the country never even came back to get his ssi money. He accepted his defeat. FBI just pulled a con on a con man at be it morally questionable however legal. Personally clever way to get him back but allot of time resources and money to put him in prison I think a waste of time tax payer money for what we know not even a repeat offender. But great story. 👍

They found out while we were briefing at the gate, waiting for everyone to come out of the plane."

      Tom can come back as many times as he wants. I think he is absolutely great. And I love my conversations with him.
      I don't know if it comes across in the interviews, but he's actually very structured and goal oriented. So he walks in the door with an agenda. Obviously, I am flying by the seat of my pants on these interviews. The combination is very funny to me. Also, he's super frustrated by my joking around. Which makes it even more funny to me. 🤣

You go off on tangents, and try to take him with you. He keeps trying to reel you back in. You both have vast experience in the world of criminal justice, but it’s from very different perspectives. You clearly have a great deal of respect for each other. The chemistry is great. Your videos together are not interviews. They’re educated discussions. They’re informative, and a ton of fun.

    So nice to talk to the FBI! when can you talk to someone that chased you?

    19:19 This is excellent. Honestly feels like an episode of 60 minutes. Great job Matt and Tom. Feels weird to like Tom😂😂 Like he's on the other side because he was an FBI agent but i know i need to keep an open mind. Crazy how something like watching a podcast can have an effect on you like that

    I could just listen to this guy on an audiobook. He tells stories so well. Was just a fascinating listen.
