"If you go into someone's pocket, you're not climbing out". Brilliant.
I have so much respect for this man. Twelve years and he managed to stay clean and for that he gets to live daily with ptsd and a broken family. Xx
Nah, he was part of Cartel
i grew up in Guadalajara, when Chapo pretty much reigned the whole country, and to hear Ed's stories its just awesome. im glad we have somebody that can speak up and let the others know what Mexico is really like.
I thought El Chapo was just a fall guy or are you talking about someone else?
@@419buckeye7 early 2000's he was the main guy in all of Mexico
@@chilangua I just remember ed saying he was never the leader of Sinaloa and was kind of a fall guy but I'm not from Mexico so I have no idea except what I get from stuff like this
@@419buckeye7he said he was like the second or third man. Not the main guy but still he had to be pretty cruel to intimidate and inflict fear at such a high level.😰🤷🏽♀️
Arriba Jalisco!
I live in San Diego and regularly do business in Mexico. This is one of the best pieces I have ever seen that realistically breaks down both the enormous challenges and potential of the country.
This channel is seriously like REAL NEWS. It’s great, amazing job Pat and everyone at Valuetainment.
It's unbelievable really what he has accomplished. Putting out the most interesting content on the internet or in media in many ways.
You are so right Kurtis this is the best place to get information about true knowledge of all kinds except I am still trying to decide about the Aliens ,Lol !
Calderon is a CIA operative
@@elpatron7916 AFO's own Ed.. Wrong alphabets but close..;)
Facts
so glad you finally got to talk to Ed Calderon, this guy needs more exposure.
Thinking the same thing.
Ed is the man. Look up eds manifesto, libre fighting system
Exposure as the CIA operative that he is
Never heard of him till this interview
The incorruptible cops in Mexico are dead, Ed was a corrupt cop. He's been exposed by O.G shadow. It is what it is, death or take a bribe, I'd take a bribe too. The entire police force is paid from top to bottom. Ed a fraud.
🤯 Pat's interview style is fantastic coverage. I appreciate the ability to watch for an hour and not be bombarded with ads.
This man is truly brave speaking out about how things really are, people need to know the truth,and most cannot speak out.
A moment of respect for this hero Lieutenant Colonel Julián Leyzaola, who put his life at risk and became paralyzed so he can save his people from the cartels. 🥺🙏
Is he still a fugitive ?
@@RM-pg4js Fugitive? He has never been on the run last I'm aware. He has been investigated for brutal tactics, but in that world, you can't be nice guy.

Pretty much the only interviewer I’m not resentful of.. ie me thinking I can do their job but better. I love this dude like a cousin.
100% agree. Joe Rogan only has good guests like 1x per month
WURD UP!
@@colin9630 Agreed. Although, his podcast with Ed was good.
If you liked this interview with Ed, go check out his interview with ex navy seal Shawn Ryan on his channel vigilance elite...
Every time I think, “that was an excellent Valuetainment video,” there’s one I haven’t seen and tops it. Excellent, excellent interview subject...I’ve been to various parts of Mexico over 30 years and it’s a place that fascinates as well as terrifies me. As long as we gringos have an addiction and corrupt leaders who turn a blind eye to trafficking...this will never end.
Like you said.. never will end lolol
Did you just try to blame Gringos? 🖕🏻🤠🤦🏻♂️ #Tard
Supply follows demand 🆖🐓
Ed’s insight is beyond measurable. Glad he gets to tell his story
This UA-cam channel is one of the best on youtube.
It is. It just always gets at me that his name is Patrick. . from Iran?
Hell yeah. Love ❤️ it
I just found this channel yesterday randomly. One of the best ones recently that is "new to me" I'm already 6 interviews into the channel.
Yosef Cardoso Valuetainment is one of the best on YT
Since you already said this UA-cam channel, you dont say on UA-cam. It's either "this channel is one of the best on youtube" or "this youtube channel is one of the best"
"If you climb into anyone's pocket you ain't coming out" -Ed Calderon
Ain't that the truth in any situation.
That was said to Malcom X when he was gonna tell people to Nationalize from black to Moors. "Get yo hand out my pocket". Only by agreeing to be labeled blacks can they be legally taxed and their lands seized. Moors (from Morocco which stretched to America B4 Atlantis sunk) are protected in the Treaties signed along with the Constitution...but! As long as they agree to be black, shyyt lol. Why yall think ALL politicians become millionaires. Cuz they all sellouts
America style of living
@@joannaj.s.9745 there is no atlantis. everything you say is now suspect.
@@gwho it sunk. That's why an ocean is named after it. All religions call it the great floods. You sound suspect. You must be F.b.i., c.i.a., informant, ignorant, or all the above.
@@joannaj.s.9745 we dont need blacks in America
Great interview Patrick! fyi, I am a Culiacan Sinaloa native came to California since age 6 in 1980 and you are big motivational speaker for me. I have a small real-estate business here in Los Angeles and listening to your videos and feeding off your confidence, motivates me to expand.
I'm proud of you being a sinaloense that made it in California, it has been hard for me , I'm from mazatlan and it's hard because we are always put aside as either drug dealers and or contract killers , and not many times they want to give you big opportunities just for being from a state with such a fame, I'm in the house remodeling field and I have been trying hard to make it ever since I got here.
Good for you 👍 I applaud your success 🙌 👏
@@ManuelTorres-rq1iw Made it??? .. Too many illegals in USA!!! .. why would you leave beautiful mazatlan.. ? Because your people allow bad people .. (Zero Integrity) with no hope without US military intervention..
This is important information to be heard. Thank you both.
What Patrick said about us Mexicans at the end, made me tear up. He's been around Mexican people, he knows how we truly are. I have middle eastern friends, there's a reason we get along so well.
Mexico reminds me in many ways some of the middle eastern countries.
@@sambassil7825 Lol.
He's Persian. Also an accomplished U.S. soldier. Middle Eastern Arabs are rude, cold acting people. Mexican and most Hispanic people are a much more kind family oriented people.

OG shadow Interview we need it.
Those who play with the devil's toys will be brought by degrees to wield his sword.
@@joseestrada8656 I was thinking of OG Shadow listening to this too. I would like to hear his feedback on this interview.
The movie he was talking about the cop not stealing money and getting ostracized is American gangster
@@mikelac2 or serpico
Ed is always such a great guest, hope you'd have it again. Great conversation
This interview is far superior to what I would call excellent.
We Americans hear thoughout our lives how bad it is in Mexico but an EXTREMELY HIGH percentage of us really don't have a clue.
This interview sheds a very bright spotlight on the realities of THE TRUTH of what these unfortunate human beings have to deal with every second of everyday.
Ed Calderon is an awesome presenter. I was able to attend a symposium with him this summer and it blew my mind. Patrick once again knocking the ball out of the park.
He's a crooked cop, all cops in Mexico are bent, but a cop like Ed who goes on joe rogan and is able to speak so freely about the cartels will 100% be involved in cartel work. Otherwise he wouldn't be breathing.... Unfortunately you can not trust him
His last interview on the Vigilance Elite podcast was real good!
Amazing
Well the earth is flat so idk
Same
"Wow". -Owen Wilson
That is by far the best interview Ed has ever done
Probably one of the most moving interviews I have seen... Thanks!
The man has cohones.. probably spelled wrong but most guys can’t and wouldn’t hold a candle to this guy.. I really hope he’s blessed and prospering
J pronounced like h........and h is silent. Cajones
Actually is COJONES.
It’s an expression used in Spain
Ed Calderon in my eyes you are a true Mexican hero , I live many miles away from you (England) but I have so much respect for you , even here in England there is so much corruption in the Police but listening to you gives me hope.
Jamie Robb
You didn’t just make a comparison With the UK police force and the Mexican police did you😳??
The scale of corruption over there is on a different level to ours here in the UK😂😂 there are cases of corruption here just like everywhere but you can’t compare the Corruption in Mexico to the UK that’s just silly
You're wrong. Ministers working for Calderon were corrupt, and it's impossible that Calderon was ignorant about this fact. His "war on drugs" was his way to legitimate his fraudulent election as president, but it was a complete failure. Drug kingpins were detained one day, and liberated the next one. Homicide rate grew exponentially. Violence and the cartels shootings began to be open on the streets. And the army began to kill and torture innocent people by mistake, or make extrajudicial killings of drug traffickers.
Well I'm Native American and growing up on the reservation especially on my reservation my mom had a fight all of the European American females because of their jealousy and their hatred towards Native American people so my mom beat their asses. And whenever my ex would come to the reservation he's half black and half native they always pulled him over just for the simple fact that he's half black. I had my own apartment on the west side of Omak Washington that's the county side not the reservation side and I remember I had this white boyfriend his name was f****** forgot his name but he came by my apartment one day and luckily he did because there was some corrupt police officers who came and tried to say that people were calling the police on me because of loud music and I didn't even have a radio in my apartment. If he wasn't there they probably would have did something to me. Okanogan County Police Department is racist AF and I intend on exposing their b*******
@@campbell3711 Entire police forces have covered for pedophiles in the UK… you’re saying that’s somehow less corrupt?
@@jmmone yeah, much less corrupt
Much respect to Ed. Thank you for your service to your country. Glad you’re here in the USA educating us. Again thanks!
warning us too
He’s brave but being use by the gri his and it’s not cool
@@OscarCastillo-kx3xlgri?
51:07 All of it is fueled by a large country: China.
So true, even during COVID, China was making fentanyl available to Mexico. Nothing illegal happens in China without their government’s control.
This guy is so smart and full of information. Love his interviews.
Ed is an amazingly humble, wise, experienced and mesmerizing guest on every show that he's done interviews on. This one was up there with the things he's done with Shawn Ryan-Vigilance Elite & that's a tremendous compliment! 👊🏼💙
"If you go into somebody's pocket your not climbing out" # China
Right on target 🎯
Fuck China!
Found the trump supporter
@JFK good luck when that happens if they kill there own people what they going to do to the rest.....americans like being free they will kills to keep it that way
China tried to invade Mexico in past history. Not to mention that Mexico has Uranium that isn't being used that much by nuclear sources.
I have always wondered how many of our politicians in the US are on the cartel's payrolls.
Probably none in the sense that you're thinking of, they just turn a blind eye to it all, then when a big enough fish comes along or they catch wind of a big shipment crossing the boarder, they start fishing.....because drug money that gets seized is automatically property of the state.
Why end a drug war when at the end of the day, you can just take someone's millions and turn around and say "this money is now ours.... You're off to prison"
I have a theory that the U.S. goverment supports the Sinaloa Cartel or at least dosent go after them as hard as other cartels in order to mantain some type of control in the neighboring nation. The Sinaloa Cartel is the biggest and the only cartel that promotes and actively seeks order and peace in the territoy it controls.
Pelosi and fienstien were against the wall because they get $$$$$ from the cartel.
Have you been under a rock? 😆
Research the following topics: CIA cocaine trafficking, Gary Webb, Freeway Rick Ross etc.
@@justcause7521 any proof or are you just talking out your ass?
This was an amazing interview and your guest Ed I have only mad respect for him. Listening to Ed talk about the cartels and about his experiences of policing in Mexico was way better than any movie I could watch or book I could read on a policeman's life in Mexico. Just fascinating.
He didn't mention the demand side of the problem. That's the biggest problem.
Fantastic and very enthralling podcast thank you 🙏
Life in Mexico for the people must be challenging
Thank you for speaking about this, I am a Mexican that lives in the US and this still affects us. My cousin was brutally murder by the cartel, it's really sad.
Condolences for your loss...
Was he involved in “dirty” business and his death was a result of that? Or was he an honest man who just got caught in a cartel crossfire ?
@ben yosep you can say that about every body in America who is not indigenous. All of you either didn't clean your own nations and ran from your own problems OR are descendants of people who did run. I swear the hypocrisy of people is astounding.
@@southernarawak5699 I am the first to bring this to light what year did you start expressing this perspective? Do you have anything published?
@@fjsgte678 Virtue signal much?
I love this guy , really gives you a sence of how thing are in mexico.
Want to know what Mexico is like, come to los angeles
@@alfredoromero3243 not even close man gtfo lol are you even from LA or have you even been to Mexico please don’t compare the two.
Scary. This happens when Police are not paid enough so they work for the cartel. Because the cartel pays better. Defund the Police, no bueno.
@@therealone4113 obviously you don't seem to be familiar with what la looks like now. I've lived here most of my life (decades). Have you walked through 6th street from McArthur Park to union Ave, Vermont ave 9th street, Pico union, downtown (where you're forced to play hop scotch because you're scared of stepping on crap, pee or needless) how about the fashion district? I suggest take a trip there first before commenting. And yes I've been to Mexico and Central America which are very similar.
@@lovev9904 soon America will 100% end up like Mexico, our Politictions are all Corrupt allready.
"What corrupts the most? Need. Need corrupts the most."
That line stood out to my ears.
I always love to hear from Ed Calderon. You did a great job, thank you!
Holy crap. This channel has more newsworthy topics than any other news agency I've ever seen. Genuinely amazing work. Please keep it up!
I like this guy Ed Calderon.He put his moral values on top of thiese short lived cartel dreams.
God Bless HIm!
i like cartel leaders i'd snitch on 4 the million dollar bounties.
I'm sure he's ashamed of plenty, hence the early retirement...
Go to Vigilance Elite pod cast an watch his interviews there. Ed is such a cool human being an such a wealth of general knowledge an street knowledge an his stories are incredible. I have so much respect for that man. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@Aj_470 before you pass judgment you should take the time to watch the rest of his podcast's else were. That man has a set of Morales an principles an principalities you'll never be able to fathom.
I always enjoy your interviews. Always fascinating. This was my second time watching this episode. I have family there. And it is so different going to certain areas that are so beautiful and peaceful unlike cartel activities that never existed Back In The Day. It's hard to believe all of this is going on now.
The cartels have existed since the 1920 it's just that they were just trafficking heroin and marijuana mainly the woman in Mexico city was like the queen pin of like the drug trafficking in the 40s and they didn't catch her till like the 70s when she goes to Canada and came back to Mexico... It's just that they weren't as prevalent as they are today
Valutainment is - without a doubt - the BEST podcast on the internet. SUPER.
I feel really sorry for the genuinely good people of mexico being governed by a massively corrupt government.
Likewise the good people of Estados Unidos being governed by a ma$$ively corrupt government.
The U.S government work for big tech Corp and the military industrial complex .

It was an amazing interview, I was glued to my phone. He is describes things so clearly, he is well spoken and as you said great storyteller.👍👍👍
I can't get enough of Ed. Dude is such a wealth of knowledge. I have a doctorate in Eds youtube videos.
No me esperaba ésta entrevista, verdaderamente impactante, la realidad supera la ficción.

I just found this channel yesterday randomly. One of the best ones recently that is "new to me" I'm already 6 interviews into the channel. I love it.
Straight from the street of Tijuana, Mexico. My man Ed Calderon knows whats up. Joe Rogan has 2 really good podcasts with this gentlemen I recommend.
Saludos!
Try listening to anabel hernandez. Ed just seems like he picks up information from her...
Ed was part of an organized crime. 🤦
@@webtheweb I have, I've read 2 of her books. The recent one about Vicente Zambada Niebla diary. He explains how involved the government was with several cartels. Its crazy, I like her work, she is straight forward. No wonder she was gonna get killed, she knows a lot.
Ed is a fraud he worked for the Tijuana cartel
Es de Tijuana? No escuche todo el video
Great interview. My travels in Baja suggests a proud, gracious and incredibly beautiful people. Viva la Mexico says a Kentucky Hillbilly.
Calderon is a gift to us all. What an eye opening interview thank you for braving us with your knowledge and perspective!!
Great interview. This man seems authentic, honest and full of information and insight!
I've spent much time in Mexico and love the country and people. This story is heartbreaking. Thank you for bring this very brave man on to bring this story to the public. We pray for you.
Is it dangerous to go over there? I want to go but I'm scared of the police over there
@@TheSpynerd yes! Its always been the "police" (policy agents) who have been the major problem. Just like in the U.S.

Excellent interview. Very articulate guest. Crazy sad reality he sheds light on.
Great interviews, great, interesting, fascinating guests. Keep it up Patrick!
Excellent interview Patrick! I've watched Ed Calderon's interview with Joe Rogan too, incredible! Thank you for sharing! Yes Meyer Lansky, Carlo Gambino and Tony Accardo were the quiet ones behind the scenes but arguably the most powerful of the Crime Bosses of New York and Chicago
Just found this channel yesterday and I love these interviews.
The interviewer is courteous and inquisitive to his guests and what I find most refreshing is that he seems unbiased
Another high standard interview. Great talk Patrick.
Forgot how much I liked this channel I’m not a capitalist anymore but damn this guy knows how to conduct an interview !
1:03:16 Oregon did not legalize everything. They decriminalized it. There is a BIG difference.
I love this guy’s interviews. Hes been on JRE too.

you must believe in Santa Claus too
I’m not taking his word seriously.
His vigilance elite interview was awesome too!
@@tonym6193 lol. I mean regardless, his interviews are informative, and enjoyable.

36:34 thru 37???? Hmm, don't get me wrong great interview I truly enjoyed the knowledge and perspective, but hey without having a long drawm out conv., All that mouth smacking an American just because there not aware, go ahead on with that dude, people chose the system they wanna become involved in, yes some are forced by whatever means yes we could go down that rabbit hole, but no, point being, it shouldn't just be and I hate say u, but just anyone that comes to this country with or without your knowledge I don't think should have the attitude that they just wanna push the fact that hey little American you don't know struggle you don t know pain etc. Right most don't and that's great wonderful we don't wanna exp it we're good the knowledge of it is a wonderful thing but to wanna always have the attitude that hey I gotta spread that message well don't spread it to the ones that conform to something that isn't for the better good that has an uneducated view or an egotistical approach to situations that are truly unknown, sorry it's early as hell and I may be losing focus and falling off point, so as a whole I'm not disagreeing but lol, I believe I'll finish this comment after work today, huh, this is strange I know feel as if I'm commenting to my own comment ??weird......
They need to make a Netflix series out of Ed Calderon’s life
He uses contradictory logic
@@davidb9779 do research on him you will hear many people say he is a fraud

This interview ranks up there with the mafioso interviews. Great Job and soooo entertaining. Hope PBD brings this guy back up for an update/additional dialogue.
Awesome interview, Ed Calderon was fabulous and very articulate, thanks Patrick
Patrick’s Spanish pronunciation is on point!! 👍👌
Maybe because he also has an accent from the Middle East. Good to hear hit though like it too.
He has lived in California and Texas most of the time
Arabic and farsi pronunciation uses the back of the throat like Spanish. It’s not impressive at all, he’s got practice.
This guy is very knowledgeable and very worth listening to. Very informative!
This was fascinating. I live on the border in West Texas, and this explained some things I wondered about.
When Ed talks. I listen. Great interview.
This mans Joe Rogans podcasts are amazing as well very great reporting that the media won’t speak on.
This man has a lot to offer, puts much in perspective.
Those boys had some serious fire power I counted about 27 M4/M203’s (40 mm Grenade Launcher “40 mike mike”). Couple of light machine guns, and it look like maybe a HK / MP-5 variant
This guy is a good interview he was on Joe Rogan a couple times...
ya

Ed Calderon is one of the most fascinating characters I have ever come across. Ed needs to write an autobiography! His bilingual English and Spanish skills are impressive as well. Great interview Patrick!
I got more information here than I would ever get anywhere else, what a fantastic guest, great work.
Try OG Shadow too man.
I love the visual edits on this podcast. Really paints a vivid picture for you while keeping your attention the whole way through. 👍
I grew up on the Texas border of Laredo! Life across the border in Mexico change over night! It turned into a battle zone and bodies and severed heads were everywhere!!
"If you go into someone's pocket, you're NOT climbing out - Ed Calderon" That one gave me chills. Shit!
Wow! I've been watching several of your interviews per day lately and this is an amazing informative interview.
Ed Calderon has been thru it, what he’s seen, done and lived through is on another level.
He does classes and I’d love to go through one of them.
This is a great podcast. Heard him on Rogan b4, clever guy with interesting perspectives and know-how on the mexican gangster world. Wish him all the best!
This guy has an amazing story. Much Respect ✊
Man Pat just keeps pushing out some of the best interviews you can watch! Awesome job man!
This was a great interview. He said the situation is hopeless. This is going to take a long time to solve. Viva Mexico!!!
Wasnt an interview., just two guys chatting. US should send military.. cause mexico is way too corrupt to fix itself. besides china owns mexican government
Hey Pat i never truely understood the level of what you are trying to achieve. Thank you so so much life changing work.
It is very interesting his perspective, he can bring to the table topics that we didn't notice in this situation
