When I use nicotine pouches, I don't want something that feels flat after 10 minutes,

0:03.7

and that's why I love Lucy Breakers. It's already a kick-ass flavor, but then they put this little capsule inside, and then you bite it with your teeth, and it refreshes the pouch and hydration all over again. Once you try it, there's really no going back to the other stuff. Lucy Breakers is perfect for me because I don't have to keep popping them because the pouch wore off. It's useful during long podcast and it doesn't interrupt the flow. Sometimes I bite down when it's fresh for a wake-up punch of flavor. Lately my go-toes are mango and the mint flavor. Lucy uses 100% pure nicotine and it's tobacco-free. And if you're like me and you don't want to think about restocking, make it a subscription. Lucy is the only pouch that gives you long-lasting on-demand flavor. Get 20% off your first order when you buy online at lucy.co slash Danny and use the code D-A-N-N-Y. And if you don't want to wait, just head to lucy.co slash stores to find a Lucy near you and grab it today. And here comes that fine print.

Lucy products are only for adults of legal age and every order is age verified. Warning,

1:00.2

this product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.

1:09.9

All right, David, thanks for coming, man. Yeah, thanks for having me incredibly huge fan of your work bro

1:15.6

uh i just watched the most the most recent one i watched was the uh the saskwatch movie which is

1:21.4

incredible we'll talk about it cool um but uh just right before we started we were talking about

1:25.7

the operation odessa movie yeah one of the most insane documentaries ever.

1:30.3

I was surprised because when I was doing some background research on you and I saw that, I was like, no shit.

1:37.1

I'm like, that was one of my top top 10 movies I've probably ever seen.

1:42.1

So why don't you explain that one real quick for people?

1:45.4

How did you get introduced to that one? Yeah, so Operation Odessa was directed by a really good

1:51.1

friend of mine, a longtime colleague, Tiller Russell. And he'd been working on that story for

1:56.9

about a year trying to get access to this Russian gangster named Ludwig Feinberg, aka Tarzan,

2:03.9

because Tiller and I had worked on a show together that actually I think never actually made it to air

2:10.5

that was about undercover agents, okay? And there was this one undercover agent that we interviewed

2:16.9

that was like the DEA's top Russian mob guy.

2:20.5

And off camera, Tiller asked him, okay, like, what's the craziest case that you ever worked?

2:24.9

And this guy was like, bar none, the first case I ever worked.

2:28.3

And he told us the story of Operation Odessa, which was that this Russian mobster Tarzan got connected with a Colombian

2:36.0

trafficker named Juan Almeida and a Cuban spy known by Tony Yester.
