This episode will take us to Peru and the Amazon forest to meet with two ex-cocaleros detailing the production process and distribution network they have known for years, with rarely seen footage showing a record seizure of 300kg of pure cocaine and a special interview of the Peruvian antidrug police chief. We will see at the end of the production chain how the drug is sold in London and other parts of Europe in small delicatessen stores where discretion is the key. One owner will give us insights into the way his ยซ shop ยป operates, while Europol and IMF experts and Doctor Johns Collins from the London School of Economics will share their expertise about the cocaine business and money laundering, providing the larger context.

Or we could just be adults and legalize drugs and mind our own businesses and let people deal with the pros and cons of drug usage.

Itโs funny that judges are cocaine customers, but yet they sentence you to prison for cocaine possession. How ironicโฆ.hahaha ๐!!!

As am American businessman in the 1970s, I can say that underground businesses were honorable. Dealers didn't screw each other. Competition was stable and sufficient enough to create a real laissez faire system. ย I took advantage of this by NOT adulterating the product. I had the most economically established clientele. When the business cycle turned down it rarely affected my trade. On the other side of the coin, I wasn't dealing to children or even people that did. I was the boutique supplier. A person could order in advance or buy on the spot. All trades were backed by a money back guarantee. Bring half or more back and 100% refund was given. That happened once. Such was my quality assurance programme. Our motto: No hits, runs, or errors. My transition to legal trade was very difficult. Liars, cheaters, stealers, hucksters, and so much more. There are few if any honorable people in legal business. There is no incentive for quality. I soon lost interest and went to work for a manufacturing sector where, at least some of the time, quality was a necessity.

Loved the guy at the end who said "Why don't we outlaw tax havens then." Thank you. You said that in front of god and everybody. We know why, and we know who funds most of the drug production like any other investment. But it was nice to finally hear somebody put that out there.

To all the dealers out there, please stop cutting it so dam much

Fun fact.The Netherlands was ones the biggest producer of cocaine in the world.They brought the coca plant to their colony of Indonesia to grow it there and they made coke out of the leaves in a factory in Amsterdam.They supplied the army's with cocaine during WW1 and after cocaine became illegal they started producing amphetamines and supplied the army's during WW2 with this.

This is the cocaine documentary Iโve been looking for. Somehow vastly better than the countless number of docs Nat Geo has made over the years- that are all pretty much the same. A reporter wandering around the rainforest telling you shit you already know. Reporting on one area or one aspect of the entire supply chain. And pretending to interview anonymous ppl involved who are probably just paid actors. Nat Geo has made some series I enjoy like Narco Wars and Drug Lords the Takedown. But in terms of a single show telling you everything from start to finish? This one is the best.

I could remember several years ago cocaine addiction actually destroyed my life. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
