All right, how you guys doing? I'm back. I was on a little bit of a hiatus. I want to have this. I was actually on a trip. I want to

London for a few days, then I want to France for a few days, and then I want to Egypt for a few days. I got treated like a war criminal.

I should probably grab that. I've got a story to tell you guys about that. You know what? I'm gonna grab that real quick.

Okay, so this thing that you guys see right here, this is a normal drone. Okay, this is a DJI Mavic drone. I use it. I've used it for, I don't know for a long time.

I've had it for years. Now this thing also now has a really janky. It's a piece of cardboard

string and super glue. So this was that it's like my kids glue gun. I probably tune the morning. I landed inside of Egypt at midnight. Roughly midnight. I think it's like 11.30 actually. I landed there and kind of find out these or a legal inside of the country of Egypt. Apparently it's due to terrorism.

I tried to taper down or taper down on terrorism or terrorist acts that I'm looking at their military bases because for some odd reason they also put them directly in the center of these cities and they just have big ones. They're kind of terrible. I don't know why they did that. It's literally in the center of Cairo. There's military installations, which doesn't make any sense. But they did that. And I guess they don't want you flying them around their sites, which to be also you guys. That country reminded me of a another version of Iraq. I think it's just that.

That type of a culture, their culture, the Arabic culture. The treat stuff like it's trash. Literally. Like every street is still full of trash or just the same kind of thing. At least people were nice. They weren't trying to kill me like inside of Iraq or Afghanistan. But they did this. So this is the goofiest thing ever. My wife had no understanding of really this culture over there inside of I guess you'd say the Middle East. She didn't really understand the way they treat women over there.

And how they're like the dogs are about the equivalent of a girl. Yeah, it was one of the first questions I asked you was like how can we feel she did really understand what it was like.

And she's like, why is everybody ignoring me? No one yet. They didn't really want to acknowledge or talk to her. But the thing was, is this right here was cut off of a a piece of trash random box that was just sitting in the middle of their TSA area.

And they questioned me for about three-ish to four-ish hours. I went to seven different offices.

And I was having to have a conversation with with my with my police officer guy who was like, I got to see every single bit of the Cairo airport. I got to go down inside of a tunnel system to two different elevators.

And there's there's a lack of security there is indescribable. I guess I cannot. It's you can bribe your way through anywhere, which I found that out of the very end.

So I had to pay a bribe to actually get my drone back. Yeah, but I had to pay their government $210, which was $5 our money just to get my drone out of its really small little cage.

But the guy, the government official and my little handler who was holding on to my passport at the very end, they said, you're going to take care of us right into this. I had to literally pay them to bribe them to get my stuff back.

Did I ever tell you about me bribing the Ukrainian police force and having to like, yeah. I don't want to do that. Really? Oh, bro. Oh, it's so what I woke so I get woke up at like five o'clock in the morning, four o'clock in the morning.

We had just got these. Well, I call them attachments. Okay. So we had just got these attachments over there.

And apparently one of the dudes didn't have his international license or he had some problem, but he got in a car accident.

Right. And this dude gets in a car accident. Probably, I don't know, a couple of miles away from where we were staying. And they're like, yo, Matt, wake up. We need you like your Russian skills. Go go go use them. Right.

So go down to this intersection. I got this dude like in handcuffs in the back of a car. I asked the cop. I'm like, dude, what the hell is going on? Like, what are you doing with my guy over here? You know, there's my buddy. What are you doing with him?

He's like, oh, he, uh, he, it was really foggy out. Right. And he drove through an intersection in T-bone somebody, not fast. It like 10 miles an hour, but they arrested him because he didn't have a license.

And their question is paperwork and stuff. Right. I'm like, look, we're taking him back to the station. You're welcome to a company if you want. I was like, cool, man, I'll be there.
