Hey, overheard listeners, it's Amy Briggs.

We'll be back with another brand new episode of Overhurt next week.

But in the meantime, I want to share an episode of a new podcast series.

It's called Traffic and is hosted by National Geographic Channels, Mariana Vanzeller.

Each episode features raw and provocative conversations that pull back the curtain on the people

operating trafficking rings and shadow economies.

In the first episode, Mariana sits down with Country Rapper Struggle Jennings.

He talks about his drug addiction, his boom and bust,

and how opioids have sparked one of the deadliest drug crises in American history.

This episode features some strong language and drug references,

so if your kids are around, you might want to check out another one of our episodes.

Mariana takes it from here.

There's a boat that I think might be the people we're meeting.

So a few months ago, I was in a Mazatlán, Mexico in Cinaloa, actually.

It's a nice little beach town full of tourists.

There are cruise ships out in the ocean.

There are beaches packed with beach goers.

You look at it and it just looks like a totally normal fishing boat.

So my journey actually started about a mile offshore,

where there was a boat full of men fishing barrels out of the water.

There were about 10 barrels, white barrels that were thrown out to sea.

I'd never seen anything like it.
