all week what about but fuck it let's do this I had a bad week last week
no you didn't get a good year look at your fucking malukia okay why is it
always a good week but you were Miami it's always a good week if you're six
days above any fucking day that you wake up on the other side that fucking dirt
it's a good fucking day all right true how was your week I went to Vegas you
were gonna be fucking yeah I learned I learned an $800 lesson Jimmy the Jew
and still a Jimmy the Greek Jimmy the Jew you like that one I did you you jinx
me cuz you call me see don't come home broke and I was I was like only down
like a hundred blame me yeah and then I and then fucking did you do any sports
back yeah yeah I did no I did I did I killed that no I actually came I came
on head sports betting cuz I did what was that killed you it was blackjack
cuz I every day I would go I would take a hundred but I'll take a hundred bucks
and I would turn into like 200 300 every day I would always yeah I'd always end up
on top and I'd go have lunch and I come back and every day I lost money after
lunch I don't know what it was lunch was a fucking jinx you probably went to
McDonald's a burger fuck you then all McDonald's on the strip sure they do
in hotels in some hotels have McDonald's no I didn't go to Mandalay Bay as a
McDonald's no I stayed in the Venetian piece of places did you stay in the
village no I didn't stay I gambled there I didn't stay there so as your dream of a
professional gamble done or you're gonna get better and go back and get back on
your fucking horse you really don't like losing money that puts you in a
fucking oh when you lose a hand of black I'm not Jewish and when I lose
anything like that drives me fucking crazy the hands don't bother me it's like
because and I it runs in my family to have an addiction to gambling and it's
just when I keep going into my ball and keep throwing at hundreds and that's
what killed me but it made me feel better because I paid a hundred bucks to
get an earlier fight out and no one's leaving Vegas at 8 8 30 on Friday night
so the only guy behind me and security I just looked at him I said you lose all
your money too he's like I lost seven grand I said I feel better and he said
you want to go get a drink I said yep so we went to the bar it was full of
people like us we all got drunk and talked about the Boston thing and it was
a good lesson to learn like I'm not gonna fucking be homeless or anything but
like I it fucking it kicked me in the pants for a couple days so does your
gambling dream over with or was just a detour that's my question cuz I don't
want you to give up on your dream it's not a dream I just I it was kind of it
was a laziness the thing I was like if I could gamble and then just do this with
you I wouldn't have to work so now I have to keep working it's called a mind
fuck yeah so it wasn't you because I was thinking about when you get back on
the horse now listen like anything else on my gambling what other fuck you want
to do a roof but you know it sucks but when you get to gambling I always tell
people like if you sold coke for a living or you sold weed and you made
let's say 3,000 a week it wouldn't hurt you as much to lose 2,000 or listen
doesn't hurt me as much as to lose it and you have to get up and actually work
for your money yeah I don't know how the fucking people work for their money and
get up and want to give it to a bookmaker legit people that's when it kills me
housewise father's people who are coaches you know and make you know the
bell fucking belly scale minimum how you gamble I tried gambling yeah Leon as a
kid and I fucking didn't like it and that's what I didn't like paying a
motherfucking on a Thursday didn't fucking like it didn't even work for me and
in Vegas you have to pay them before right when you make the bet you know
until you don't get the chance to wait no it's it's it's really rough and you
know I God bless you people every we say we make money we do this God bless you
you know I know a lot of communities don't make money and then we'll make
money on the other side as a comic even just doing sets a long time I first
got to people say you don't make no money in LA I made money I made money to
snorkel yeah that's you know and speaking of that you're in Miami I was in
Miami not snorkel I know that the comedy festival I had a great time I want to
thank everybody who came out they put us in the back of the fucking Jack Lee
Gleason theater but it was still cool it meant something to me to perform in
Miami you know let's face it my second home growing up was Miami yeah it's a
shame of the events that happened with my family and whatnot down there and how
that always fucked me up because that's what always what happened to my
uncle down there my slash godfather always fucked me for the rest of my life
because I couldn't imagine going to prisoners this age right now prison is
built for guys that are young to you fuck up like what you did last weekend
like in other societies if you lose 800 you go to jail for fucking you smack
you around a little bit and I didn't want to go to jail at a late age I always
fucking despised that I don't know how the fuck these mafia dons live the full
life I think it should be opposite I think you should live your life when
you're young and then when you're old you with your grandchildren you your
head's turning white you fucking doing different things you know yeah it's so
weird how when we had Calandrilla on I've been thinking about Danny all weekend
and I tell you he was always an old soul you know he always I don't remember
Danny being out drinking or parties when I was in and that's what made you're a
little more to him that he had control a lot of young kids don't have control I
was watching the movie the other day and the girl said something about the
murder whoever did this was older and the guy said why he goes because he was
controlled he had more of his and I was the same way I knew how to I didn't like
fucking paying them yeah I don't like pain and that's why one of the things you
always want a vice at an 18 from seeing people at my mother's bar I always knew
people gonna have a vice and I knew I was gonna have a vice so when I was
gambling losing money I said if I'm gonna lose money I'm gonna take this money
and snort coke instead yeah that was the math I did my head you know it
listeningly whatever you want to do I support you a lot of people came up to
me and said how the fuck did you let them go down there what's the matter with
you and I'm like hey at 24 who the fuck was gonna tell me what the fuck I was
and was not gonna do I didn't listen to people 24 I didn't listen to people when
they talked to me nevermind advice yeah I thought I had the world by the balls I
know you're not that type of person that you think you have the world by the
balls you just wanted to try it if you came home with 800 you wouldn't have me
oh yeah so I mean it just didn't work they clean you out it's just it's fucking
traumatizing yeah and it's just you start doing stupid things and I knew I
was cuz I talked to a professional gambler the last time I was there he
said don't ever you have to have like a hundred times your minimum bet really to
do do well in blackjack so I went from the $15 table and the where I lost it
was I went first to the $25 table just to try it cuz like and then right when
I was down to like 300 bucks I was fucking and I went to the high limit
table went to $50 and I was just like just give me one black chip and the
first hand I got it was a 10 well I put a hundred down I got that I took the last
hundred all bill out of my wallet double down and I won I turned that
204 I played until I got 500 and then I should have left but I just kept playing
and then fucking went it when it went gone like you're not supposed to make
hundred dollar bets if you can't make a thousand hundred dollar bets so but it's
it's alright it's a listen man the more you know somebody wrote me yesterday
said Joey I'm 20 I'm 20 something and I want advice on my life to put me on the
right track I want you know you tell stories and 19 I don't have any of
these fucking stories you have to live a little bit you have to take a chance yeah

your nuts and some of them like they toss your salad eat your ass and stick a tongue in your
fucking prostate and massage your fucking prostate you should have seen Lee's face he nearly died but
let me tell you who's just as much of a prude as Lee is I am I'm even a bigger fucking prude I was
thinking of my and I was thinking about leafism one night I was at my friend's house I must have
been about 15 my mother was still alive early 15 late 14 and I wanted my dick to get sucked but I
didn't want to check to suck it like that's I took that if a girl sucked your dick it was disgusting
okay but there was this girl at my friend's house that she had sucked everybody's dick
and I was flirting with her a little bit and then she wanted to make out with me and while she was
making out with me I was having a nervous breakdown thinking of all the dicks she sucked while we
were kissing I went home and I put peroxide in my mouth spit it out and then I put listerine in
my mouth it was on fire I almost had to go to the fucking dentist for two fucking days it was like
putting that stuff I put on my dick to beat the blood test that's how prudish I was didn't let
her suck my dick I didn't get my dick sucked I was out of high school Jesus like I didn't
really get a good legitimate blow job it was at Louis Donato's massage parlor he got one of the
chicks to suck all our dicks like a couple chicks I didn't lay down the massage bed he just did
us a fucking favor I was about 18 and 19 but that's how much of a prude I was but I was telling you
that and this is a sad fucking statement the best and the most pussy I got was when I got
left back in the seventh grade to freshman year that was when I got like all this weird pussy
thrown at me that was young in high school I was telling him this morning I remember I was the
finger bang this junior and she had so much hair in the pussy I didn't even know what the pussy
of my hand would get caught in the fucking ass it was a talent delicious delicious it smelled like
fucking garlic bread I like when that little monk has that wing to it so it was so weird how
I was prudish I was very prudish but I thought I was good in bed I would eat your pussy and suck
your tits and suck your neck and that was it and I wouldn't let a girl suck my pipe and then I
graduated high school and I moved to Colorado and I was I didn't I wasn't getting no pussy when
I graduated high school I would get my yearly stabbing or two broads but not like guys that I
ran with that we're getting chicks every fucking weekend I'd pick the victim up here and yeah yeah
we could all pick a victim up if you throw enough spaghetti on the wall you're bumping to a chick
though confused girl so I moved to Colorado and I was 19 yeah and the neighbor girl was delicious
she was 29 or 30 and they were standing and she was from Milwaukee and she worked at a wine
shop and she had a sister named Tina and they were both Italian like old school time yeah Tina
with sunbathe and you could see the pussy on her head through her bikini uh things like the yeah
would come out of the sides like she was bald like when you're bald but you let your head grow
that way that's how much hair she had on her fucking monkey and I had a little affair like a
summer long affair with a 29 year old and Lee everything I was prudish against she flipped it
like she's the girl that turned me on that's what I'm saying you know I think there's a difference
between being prudish I mean like you gotta make a puke and then no fucking with your butt she also
she goes you got a lot of endurance and you you you're a big strong guy but you're not fucking
me right she goes you're gonna go through a thousand lives because they're all gonna leave
that's what it got she goes you gotta do certain shit pull my hand I wouldn't pull her hair I remember
it took me fucking three weeks to pull her hair and she's like no I want you to pull my hand like
fucking and then finally she pulled my hand I almost punched it and she was like I'm gonna
fucking pull my hair like that and I didn't I couldn't believe it and she wanted me to smack her
and fucking pick up her legs and through rip her clothes off and I would I could never rip
a fucking girl's clothes off I used to rip her bra off then she'd make me tie her up and shit and
fucking fuck her and take my dick out like she broke it down for me like you have to torment me
if not chicks ain't gonna call again they want a guy to fucking torment them and run them in bed
and I'm telling you this yesterday he's looking at me like I remember her saying to me like listen
when I was 19 or 20 I had an idea what I was my limitations were gonna be in bed and what
I wasn't what I wasn't gonna do just for the things I had heard growing up that's happened in bed
one thing I was never gonna have happened was a chick put two fingers up her ass or a dildo
or whatever I'm 50 fucking years old nobody's put a dildo in my ass but I have had a couple
fingers on my little puke walk and I'll tell you why it's not bad if the chick does it correctly
again that girl there we got a call coming in there you go I'll finish this part too all right
what's up baby top of the morning to you top of the morning to you on the line is
fucking director extorting there tremendous kid all around my man billy corbin what's happening baby
I've never been described as fucking director before that that was an outstanding introduction
you never been what never been described as fucking director tremendous tremendous dog cocaine
it's funny because you meet people like we were supposed to we were supposed to meet on the
rogan podcast you got caught up doing something I didn't get to meet you and all of a sudden we
meet last weekend in Miami and it's like we've known each other for 15 fucking years
dude you bailed me out on on rogan is what happened if you remember correctly you bailed me out I
sold rogan out not intentionally but I was shooting in in uh in hollywood on this new project we have
listen to me I'm so hollywood all of a sudden um the only hollywood I've ever known my life is
hollywood florida right with the old people getting sun and all of a sudden I'm shooting a
a documentary in a in a studio in hollywood California and I never get out there and Joe
said you know when you get out there call me and you'll come on the podcast so I'm out there he
books me on the podcast and of course what is it like you know three four o'clock in the afternoon
and I gotta drive to Pasadena right because that's convenient so so I realized there's no way I can
make it because we're interviewing these really incredibly spectacular cool and famous people
on this documentary all of whom are more important than I am and are more important in my podcast
schedule and I totally screw up and I'm blowing up Joe's phone texting him I'm like I can't make
it I can't make it and I'm so sorry and uh you always looked at that was like the highlight of
my trip was going to be you know on the show with Joe and he gets it so late that he's all ready
to go you know he blasted out on twitter that he's got this podcast that I'm coming on the show
and he discovers I can't make it and you managed to I don't know how you did it
but you're a morning person so you're up all the time right yeah no and it's not even that like
one thing I understand about life and living out here most people cannot deal with
is that your life changes by the minute especially when your job you know you're working with artists
or talent as they call them and you're on their fucking schedule and these motherfuckers at that
range of talent they could show up anywhere from 20 minutes late to three hours late and it's acceptable
out of here me I fucking wrap everything up I put 15 minutes and tell you to go suck my dick but
people do that but I've always been a fan what's that well we we do docs usually in the world of
of athletes um or or in this case hip hop and that's a whole other schedule unto itself
now you grew up in Miami you're all the way Miami boy all the way I was born actually in a place
called Fort Myers Florida okay which is now famous for being called the Dunk City because it's it's
where Florida Gulf Coast Gulf Coastal University is where it's all of a sudden had a had a contender
this year in the NCAA tournament and so now people know it is Dunk City we used to call it
meth city because that's pretty much what it's known for um other than uh other than now a basketball
team but I was born there and my my grandfather was involved in building a one of the first like
you know suburban subdivisions there like a planned community and one of the first things
they did and I'm now like one two years old literally but one of the first things they did was
they they paved a grid so all that was out there before they broke ground on the first house was
out against perfectly yet he's perfectly paved roads no stop sign in the middle of the swamp
just this beautiful grid of streets and corners and intersections and so what he told me they used
to do is they would go out in the morning to a building site when they started to develop
the uh the property and they'd find airplanes abandoned on these stretches of road because
there was just this beautiful straightaway of paved road with nobody around or no lights or no
anything no patrol no police no nothing so drug smugglers used to use these roads as
uh landing pads and that was sort of my first exposure to to what was actually going on in
florida when i was growing up and then when i was about two three years old my family moved to
miami and i and i've been here that was 1980 81 and i've been here ever since my god my god
and i finally got i not only did i finally get to meet you in miami which is a beautiful thing
but i have a feeling you know there's probably a lot of people out there i mean obviously everybody
listening knows you but i don't know if they've all seen you live and i got the privilege to see
that happen this past weekend at the south beach comedy festival and it was a thing of beauty i told
you this already but i want to say it you know on the record that you know watching you work it was
like it was like watching a great jazz musician jam or watching a visual artist paint a masterpiece
you don't go up there until jokes not that i don't i love and admire all stand-up comics anybody
with the balls and the talent to get up there and put it all on the line in front of a a group of
people who are judging you and deciding whether or not you're funny or talented it takes a lot of
balls and i admire that a hundred percent from anybody in the game but you're not one of these
guys who just gets up and tells jokes which in of itself is a hard thing you get up and tell stories
or a raccoon tour and and and the the comedy comes from the storytelling and i just i don't know i
loved watching you work and i think anybody who hasn't seen you live has got to go somewhere and
and watch you do your thing as soon as possible because it's it's really it's really incredible
and just and and just my girlfriend was listening to the the bit about when you start the bit about
your cat and everything gets so melancholy and quiet in the theater i mean just just the risk of
that and just the the balls that it takes to say okay i'm gonna now fashion you know 15 minutes of
my actor however long it is around you know my cat who passed who we had to put down and passed away
it's just i don't know it for me it was like watching an artist at work and it was hilarious
obviously but still very touching and very moving and i i don't know i was really taken with the
whole show and i and i thank you for coming down to uh to miami beach and entertaining us all
man listen for starters you blew my mind with that because for starters i'm stoned and i can't handle
that type of shit when i'm straight and you're telling me this but thank you very much how'd
you do at the cannabis cup this weekend you know i didn't go i didn't go i came home and i just that's
in denver and uh but i'm trust me i've been stoned ever since i landed i was stoned the whole time
man somebody gave me a piece i thought maybe you were in competition with your new strain uh uh
what's it called caligula juice caligula juice no i'm not your new strain somebody gave me a
hash in miami i mean it was a great experience but i tell you i gotta i gotta point this out i i
looked at you know i watched cocaine cowboys i got the mark roberts book who was a fucking
interesting guy told you and your girlfriend that reading the first three chapters of my mark i
related he was in jersey he lost his parents and he had somebody that took him on the wrong side
of the tracks like cover his back while he was on the road so i related a lot to mark uh john
john roberts i'm sorry i'm like i said i'm fine but it's so weird that when i looked at the films
you had worked on you have uh you walk on a very tight line which i fucking love in a director
while i was down there on the radio i do the spiel about directors so they don't have any more balls
they all learn the same shit in fucking uh directing school and they think because they shoot
the guy flicking his his ash on the thing that's avant garde and that's what people want to see
know people want to see the fucking truth and that's what you did with cocaine cowboys
you know forget cocaine cowboys just the documentary the 30 30 on the u of n i was blown the fuck away
i knew what was going on and you left shit out you left the fucking shit that you couldn't fucking
say out but you walk such a fine line with it and that's what art is about that's why i don't like
soft art i want your shit to push something i want to go to bed and go you know what fuck billy
you know i have an idea for cocaine cow he missed this or i missed this in my act and that's
what i love about you with your films man that is fucking amazing a few things to say about it the
first thing is i think you're right about as you put a directing school you know film school trains
auctuers which essentially means i don't like to borrow that line um the vincent price said in
it auto premises laura from 1944 the class he said he said i don't know a lot about anything
but i know a little about everything and while that's kind of helpful in this world of you know
technology and you know being able to to shoot a little bit and to edit a little bit and to
upload to the internet a little bit while while that's helpful it still doesn't necessarily create
the most well-rounded or educated or uh artistically inclined uh kind of director and i think
you're right people look for the tricks or the shortcuts and our company we need our company
raconteur uh phonetically r-a-k-o-n-t-u-r because you know it's a french word that means one who
tells stories with skill and that's what we wanted to do we didn't care what the format was whether
it was a a feature documentary or a short film or a podcast or whatever it is we just wanted to
to tell stories and mostly we were committed to nonfiction because as you well know uh with your
extraordinary life truth is always stranger than fiction and and if you can just tell people a story
that is what i mean that's literally the oldest art form is storytelling and that is what people
would gather around the fire to hear that's what people would paint on the side of fucking caves
i mean it was all about storytelling that's what art was that's what performance was that's what
visual art uh was and and to us that that is the that is the the form of art that will endure
forever no matter how the technology changes no matter how the world changes around us people
want to hear stories true or or fiction you're a beautiful man you caught me rolling
but no no but even with cocaine cowboys like when i first watched that here i am you know
off coke uh four years i didn't really give a fuck about it anymore i knew what i had bought
into 30 years ago and i'm watching your documentary eddie bravo dear friend the big fan of your
documentary calls me and tells me how i gotta watch this and i'm watching this and i do remember
the dayland shit you know and i didn't know i didn't know who that woman ever was i didn't
know who she was and just to watch you guys talk about this and i'm sitting there i knew all about
miami from like i said i was telling uh lili lili the flying jew my co-host and producer how
you know i watched uh i used to go to miami as a young kid so for me going home this last weekend
it means a little more than me going to miami i just don't let it out i'm sentimental the whole
time because i could have ended up living in miami later on when my when my mom passed so
here you come how do you how do you feel out of curiosity when you come to miami today i mean
it's changed so much right since your childhood i mean how do you feel coming your in terms of
seriously seeing the new skyline and everything and and how it's changed
there's two sides of my story one i like what as a as a cuban american i like what they've done
down there when i used to go down there as a kid it gave me pride that i was cuban that they had
put together this beautiful little city this is what it was before 1980 it was a community of cuban
people my mom didn't like it because she said that she didn't want to hear the cubans crying about
what had happened she wanted a new life me i like that i still like going down to kaya ocho and seeing
the old cuban guys playing dominoes it's become like little idly now in a sense but the thing is
still there you know on the other side of the coin i'm always excited to go to miami but i tell you
what i have pain in those words billy because like i told you yesterday i had a godfather who i love
dearly dearly dearly uh and he you know raised me a little bit till i was about 10 or 11 you
know i would spend summers with him and uh then he ended up getting locked up for something he had
done 10 years earlier so it was a big lesson to me in life i never wanted to get locked up at a later
age and when he came out he basically lost everything but he lost himself and i remember when uh the
hurricane in 91 what was it or 91 andrew andrew i contacted him after being embarrassed and uh
because he found that i was doing drugs and shit and he told me never to call him again
and i remember doing andrew i contacted him and he was living in a fucking trailer
and i hung up the phone and bawled for hours because i remember the home he had
he was like your grandfather he took communities of alligators and swamp you know broke him down
with a fucking caterpillar and then built five houses on a block once he would build the five
houses he'd sell them and we'd move into another a new subdivision you know so that's what miami
offers me i don't let the last time i performed their kids showed up the daughter jackwell and
who my mother baptized and then he's gina this time i didn't make real contact with them and i
think it was because of the pain i still have that's what i have when i go to miami reminds me
of a painful time like if that guy was still alive i would have probably spent the weekend at his house
even though he would have probably been 80 by now well i i think that's really the the the
interesting impact of of and the legacy of drugs uh in this country is that it not only ruined lives
from the standpoint of addicts and now by the way i mean when when cocaine with that was at its peak
we had about two deaths a week in miami dade county from cocaine now we're seeing as many as seven
deaths a day from oxy and that really affects you know young people and and uh and and people who
are getting hooked on a drug that they're not getting into for for party purposes or recreational
purposes but because they're addicted to these terrible drugs and and you see people's lives
not only get ruined by that but you know we did a documentary called square grouper
the godfathers of ganja which is kind of an unofficial prequel to cocaine cowboys it's about
you know the the more jimmy buffett laid back priority pot hauling uh smuggling days of miami
of the 70s when shit wasn't so real you know like it got with the columbians in the 80s but
but what you saw was lives and families american families being destroyed by the prohibition
of marijuana you know that's in that's in a way what you're also talking about is that you know
what when when your godfather went away um that was really the destruction in a way or the breakdown
of of above an important element of your family and i think that's really where america's got
to look at itself in the mirror uh and and and start talking seriously about how we are how we
are free and how we protect ourselves and and and what's really important about how we fill our
jails uh what for at at great expense not only to the taxpayers as far as the uh the economic
impact of the of of the prison system but what we're doing what we do to the american family
and what we do to uh you know these millions of people that we lock up who for victimless crimes
for nonviolent offenses over uh weed or or or some drugs that that recreational users that
that essentially responsible consenting adults are voluntarily purchasing and putting into their
into their bodies i mean it's it's a it's a scary it's a scary thing when i think when i go back
through you know just recent past and and my lifetime i mean three decades at plus
uh and and and you see just the lives that have been destroyed not just by drug use but by prohibition
by the families that have been that have been torn apart for no reason over over what and and and
for what and i think that's i think that's uh you know along with this you know the gay rights issue
that's going on right now these are sort of the contemporary civil rights issues of our time right
now i think that's what it is are we gonna start treating people fairly unjustly in a system that
are that our forefathers had had designed and intended or are we gonna say fuck it and continue
to put our heads in the sand and start seizing people's properties and and liberties and freedom
over some weed yeah what i think i think we're the real crossroads in this country about that
because it's it's demographic i think the way people think about this kind of stuff and and i
think we're getting to a point where you know people are uh are dying off literally of a generation
that have these archaic beliefs that are literally like it's like neanderthal thinking like we're
just gonna lock everybody up it's like for what poison ivy is more dangerous than weed you know
how are we gonna how are we gonna continue to destroy people's lives in this country
over this and i think we're i think we're almost there i hope we're almost there you know i loved
about you that you weren't opposed or as a director if they if they show you you know if i saw a picture
of who i thought directed cocaine cowboys i i pictured a white dude with earrings and tattoos
and fucking spiked hair and he hung out with three black dudes who were thugs and you know
and here you walk in this uh very intelligent mild-mannered jewish-american kid that i love
to death and i look at you and i go what gave you the balls and the permission to shoot cocaine
cowboys what inspired you what made you say i got to get this fucking story out there because people
have to know it well same thing with the you it was my childhood uh that's what it was uh it was
my story it was a story did you ever do blow billy what is it have you ever done blow i had never
even taken a hit off a joint god fucking bless you i'm drug-free this is what i'm saying why would a
guy i you know i'm saying when if i expected the guy from cocaine cowboys coming sniffling
yeah like uh yeah i'm sorry i'm 35 minutes late but you showed up uh you know you're up early you
do the work what made you go after such a fucking controversial subject like i said it's it's this
it's the story of my community it it explains so much from from my childhood and memories that i have
of miami growing up that that uh i had questions about as a kid that your parents just can't answer
when the answer is drugs and drug money to every to every question that you have about the mysteries
of growing up in miami in the 1980s and and so as a kid uh in miami um i was aware of things
but not on the level obviously that i'm aware of now uh having asked questions having done
the research having worked on the movies uh but i remember my most distinct memory is money
when i say money i mean wealth i mean we were in a you know middle-class neighborhood in north
miami beach uh single-family homes uh hard-working people um but in the 80s in miami everybody had
a little bit more everybody had just a little bit more money you'd walk around or ride your bike
around this neighborhood and you would see in front of these modest homes there'd be a Porsche
there or there'd be someone working on building a second story on to the house everybody had
a little extra cash and so they were they were spending it in some way they were reinvesting
it actually in in in the community and these weren't people who are in the drug business mind you
but these this was definitely the trickle-down effect of the drug economy in miami because you
had people who were uh real estate uh developers or car dealers or they sold wine you know they
were grocers uh or they worked at luxury hotels as managers or bartenders or or bell hops and
everybody had a little bit extra cash and i i heard a story the girl who cuts my hair
um the woman who cuts my hair she she's been cutting hair for decades down here and she said
to remember back in the 80s you know how you get your hair cut and and on your way out the door
you kiss her goodbye and you put your tip and you know you put the tip in her pocket you know so
she would get home at the end of the night and she'd empty her pocket with pockets with all the
tips in it and she would find a little baggie of white powder and she said she was so naive at
first she had to ask her friend she was what the hell is this like you know what that is that's
worth more than gold that's better than a tip in in cash but that's what miami was like miami was
a town that was just was just pumping and the wheels were going round on this cocaine economy
on the wheel we had tourism which is the number one legitimate industry down a miami date that was
generating you know a billions of dollars a year but cocaine was generating billions more
than what tourism was generating in in the 1980s so this was a very real cash oriented
undeclared income economy that i remember i recognized everywhere around me i didn't know
what it meant because i was in single digits at that time but later on in life it was like well
well what is this all about and then you watch cocaine cowboys and you see all of that horrible
local news footage you know of the just the murder and the mayhem and that was the shit that i grew
up watching i mean i remember sitting at the kitchen table at you know five o'clock in the
afternoon on a weeknight which is the worst you know when mom's steaming the vegetable you
know making dinner and you're sitting there doing your homework you're like oh shit it's another
god damn weeknight i gotta go to school again tomorrow and and i just remember that feeling
in my stomach and what it smelled like and what it looked like and there was this little tv we
had a small tv in the corner of the kitchen that my mom would have on the local news and that was
those were the sights and sounds and images that i grew up with dead bodies on the streets you know
i mean 25 percent of the corpses in the date county medical examiner's office had automatic
bullet fire wounds in them i mean that was the level of carnage and warfare that was going on
on the streets here in miami you could really liken it to uh chicago today um were you know for
oakland uh today or really even little hady uh and parts of miami to this to this day but it
was a daily occurrence that you would see multiple uh corpses with multiple gunshot wounds often from
automatic gunfire and right away everybody knew what that was and everybody kind of
shrugged it off as just oh yeah another drug gang another drug war and uh when we put it all together
in the movie i'll never forget this we we obtained literally dozens of hours of local news footage
from you know for practically a decade in miami and i remember watching it all together because
it's one thing when you're watching it one night at a time consuming it as a kid you know in real
time you don't quite put it together you don't synthesize it so with the movie we're going to
synthesize this and and and put it into some historical perspective and i'm watching this
footage and it's just you know hour after hour of of of blood and carnage and drug wars and and
i'll never forget i called my mother up this is while we're working on on cooking cowboys
in like 2005 or so i called my mother up and i said what the fuck were you thinking raising
children here in miami in that time period and she kind of kind of chuckled and and said well
there was a certain disconnect uh from what was going on and and and uh uh that in terms of the
drug wars and and the neighborhood we were in uh and that's the thing about miami that people
don't realize is there's a misconception that miami is a melting pot and we're not a melting pot
at all i liken us much more to a tv dinner where sometimes the peas fall over into the mashed potatoes
but for the most part we are highly compartmentalized so there is the the jewish neighborhood the
the Haitian neighborhood the even on the beach you have a venezuela neighborhood a brazilian
neighborhood an argentinian neighborhood everybody separate of cuban communities all
all around but everybody's really separated here and and and feels this disconnect with what's
going on elsewhere in the community and that's really unhealthy uh because especially today
i mean in the last four years we've had about 99 kids under the age of 18 who have died
uh uh it had been shot and killed and that's like a new town connecticut massacre every
single year for four straight years and that's happening mostly in the inner city and african
american uh communities in miami and you go outside those neighborhoods and people don't care
and people don't seem to realize that that whatever's going on in miami reflects on all of us and
reflects on everybody just like the cocaine wars people people didn't go oh well that's only
happening in mainland or that's only happening in little hirvana or that nobody outside of
miami compartmentalizes like that they they hear anything palm beach or south and they just say
miami it's going on in miami and that's what gives us but you know this dangerous kind of
reputation which sometimes works in our favor and other times i think reflects really badly
on on you know the level of responsibility and corruption and safety general safety i think of
of tourists and and citizens here and and and it's tough to get people to care about that because
we have really what do they say they say uh los angeles is the place you go when you want to
be somebody new york's where you go where you when you are somebody and miami's where you go
when you want to be somebody else so that kind of mentality really informs us uh down here we
have a transient population with no institutional memory very little indigenous uh industry outside
of what's the next hustle you know we sell sunshine down here we sell a dream it's not really
anything real you know it's it's it's a lot like la in that way we sell uh you know we we just sell
a dream we sell sunshine and and uh it's not enough to say that we're a real a real place or a real
city um even though i think it's turning into that now it's starting to become a little bit
more legitimized but i think that's only true in in recent years not not in decades past to
take this back for a minute billy uh you know i used to go to miami from probably 70 on and i
really have to tell you this and i know you heard this during cocaine cowboys and you know when
you're uh investigating on what happened you know when i tell people now the cocaine surge that
came into this country is much like what i'm watching now in la with the medical marijuana
how you know there's putting two stores next to each other now on the same block
but what people have to Miami was a beautiful place billy billy yeah i loved going as a child
that we would go to the castaways and there was a string of beaches and you jump the fences and
went from pool to pool and you cross the street and went to the new port and across the street from
that were all these boats as a kid for me i lived on 205 west 88th street and i lived in
north bergen new jersey had come down there and i got to tell you something after 76 of some was
when uh it was whenever the eagles released one of these nights was my last summer down there
and i went back years later like maybe 82 i went back with some friends to go down there to go to
the beach and i'll never forget beside the sea what happened to south miami it wasn't just a
cocaine billy it was also the pack of cubans that came in in 79 you know uh scarface said they
released 125 000 and a percentage of them those people that came in eight in 79 that was a different
breed of human being i don't know what came in the on the fucking raps and i don't know what comes
in on a daily i'm telling you what came in 79 i remember a specific story of a guy i had grown
up with his name was andres garcia andres garcia ended up dying in a prison because he shot up uh
the galaxy towers and there was two children in there he was one of those guys that set up those
fake drug deals way before 84 he was doing this shit in the late 70s my mother was tight with him
and he had a brother poopy who had come up from cuba in that 79 thing and he had come up uh no he
came up before that and he had become a millionaire in miami selling coke but he also had an air
condition refrigeration guy and i guess he hired uh i guess he hired his nephews when they came from
cuba so the brother andres was living by me and his younger brother poopy was in miami well when
the nephews came they found that the guy was a millionaire not only did they shoot him they ran
over his fucking body with a car they lit him on fire i mean these people this was a different
breed of violence add the fucking columbia add the fucking cocaine to that animalism because i
remember running with those at that time i was as distant as a cuban as could ever be my mother
had been dead four years i was living with italians i was running with italians north bergen had a
couple of the cuban kids but i wasn't in contact with them it wasn't till 85 that i went to san
francisco where i met a bunch of cubans up there there was a small cuban community and they
were selling drugs and they were fucking they put h into the word hustle these guys were amazing
they were dark skin cubans i had never seen that these were darker than fucking black people in
atlanta and mempers i mean these were black fucking cubans and they were savages i gotta be
honest with you my people were savages well 1980 itself was absolutely devastating devastating
and then the country has to this is 32 years ago this was a complete different animal well you
had a heart i think from april to october i think is when the mario boat lift occurred you had about
125 000 people uh that came over many of them just freedom loving folks hardworking folks who
wanted to escape uh you know the horrendous conditions of the island and then you have
that as many as 25 percent maybe more maybe less were these hardened cold calculating criminals
and not just like people that had i don't know you know shoplifted no no no this was from bodega
this was the and where they had come from they had come from a prison called immoral they had come
from these prisons where it makes like the worst like attica look like a fucking daycare some of
these prisons do you know they had to walk around naked in some of these prisons right
with a whole dangerous of course they're fucking and i remember my mother hooked up with a guy that
was my stepfather in reality was my father to me this guy was the most dangerous cunning man i had
ever met in my life but he was in a cuban prison for years from being a young ego he was part of
an abaqua uh a little cuban uh secret long charming community they don't eat pussy you know they slice
your ass with a razor there's still a little amount of them left in uh miami but not the old
g's are gone you know at least you know what happened was immediately the mario letos as they
call them uh gravitated towards miami beach because ocean drive looked a lot like havana
you know it had that vibe you know you chill out on the on the broad walk by the seawall or you'd
be you know be by the beach so it had that same vibe so immediately all these mario letos started
showing up in miami beach which was mostly a community of old jewish retirees many of whom
were holocaust survivors living in these horrendous efficiencies you know for 125 bucks a week on a
fixed income from social security they would go to the to the shopping uh the center of the um
the market and they would deliberately bruise the fruit so they could go to the manager and ask
for a discount on the bruised fruit like this is what was going on in miami beach it's very much
like people remember from from scarface from the ocean drive scene and the next thing you know you
have these mario letos come in and suddenly vicious violent crimes this is robberies rapes and
murders practically quadruple in one year from you know from 80 to 81 to 82 you're talking about
the most horrible crimes not just you know petty crime but i'm talking about literally elderly
jewish women who survived Auschwitz being raped and left for dead in alleyways of what we now
know is south beach you know one of the hottest destinations and and and tourist uh traps in
this is what was going on there you had flop houses uh that the police would show up to they'd
be called to show up to seven eight nine times a day where they would come in and two mario letos
got into a fight one guy stabbed the other and the police would show up then 45 minutes after
the police left they'd get another call another guy got stabbed and killed i heard a story that
never made any of the cocaine cowboys movies but from a guy who was working as a as an er doctor at
jackson memorial at the time i believe was the only trauma center in south florida so that's
where all the you know that the gunshot wounds and and and the victims would go and he had a mario
leto come in uh in late 1980 early 81 and the guy had been shot a single gunshot wound and he
said to the to the guy in the er he said my god man if this bullet had hit you literally centimeter
or so uh further up you would have died instantly and and then the next day the guy was gone from
the hospital and that night another mario leto comes in shot in exactly the spot where this
er doctor told the other guy that he would die instantly if he was shot there so it was his
belief that the mario leto who who he had treated the day before and saved that this guy went out
in retaliation and shot his his uh you know the guy who had shot him in exactly the spot that the
doctor had essentially recommended in an effort to cause instant death and this is just this was
just part for the course this was just a typical night i mean if you were a lawyer or a homicide
detective or a medical examiner or an emergency room doctor or nurse miami was ground zero you
could not get any better on the job training in those line in that line of those lines of work
um then then you could in in uh in miami florida and and you know what happened was is that in the
1960s late 50s early 60s the president had signed an order that said that the purposes
we all know cia is supposed to operate internationally and the fbi is because the domestic
you know federal police department in those days so you know we didn't have homeland security and all
that stuff so the president signed an order that declared miami foreign soil for the president cia
operation and now it's spot on stuff i'm losing you i'm losing you are you moving around i didn't
i thought you it sounds like you're moving around oh yeah i'm always moving around should i
stop yeah stop moving around yeah it was great you were going on a they signed an order in 1950
yeah it declared the president declared miami foreign soil for the purpose of cia operations
and that's what justified you know operation mongoose all of the uh training camps out in the
everglades and on elliott key uh that jm wave jm wave was the largest uh cia station outside of
langley it was located by by what is now zoom miami used to be metro zoo what they call the
university of miami south campus that was cia's largest base outside of langley and the cia in
miami miami dade county was called just date or metro date in those days they were the number one
employer in the county nobody no organization or company employed more people in dade county
in the sixties than the cia did and they owned everything your front front businesses store
fronts anything you can imagine that people were employed quote unquote unofficially or
officially by and the cia was training cubans to go back into cuba as we know what resulted
really in the disastrous bay of pigs invasion but the cia was miami dade miami dade was the the
cia uh through the 1960s and then what you had happened was uh after uh john f kennedy's assassination
you started to have that that program those programs wind down and then you had a lot of
uh cubans who were out of work who had been trained by the cia in myriad skills uh none of which were
really helpful in the job force unless you wanted to become wallah a drug smuggler so a lot of the
cubans who had been trained by the cia moved immediately into marijuana smuggling initially
because they had boats they were trained in in in night operations in all sorts of cloak and
dagger type stuff to go in and out of cuba uh under the cover of night uh to infiltrate uh to set up
uh you know to liaise with the rebels and set up various uh kinds of operations that that
that ultimately led to uh to the bay of pigs and so these guys become marijuana smugglers
and marijuana gives away to to cocaine of course because if you're going to take that kind of risk
uh you might as well uh profit uh from it because you know the marijuana was not nearly
smuggling it was not nearly as profitable as uh as cocaine was at that time just based on supply
demand of course the size of the product the weight of the product the the cost uh uh of the
product i mean you had uh at that time what the columbians realized is that they were
trading off to the cubans the cubans would were the the transportation guys who are smuggling it
in and out of columbia and bringing it to miami and you could get a kilo of cocaine in columbia
in late 70s early 80s for about five thousand dollars uh you know standing in a in a marina
or in a uh a some dirt road pseudo uh landing strip in in in columbia but the problem was
is that not the problem or the thing was is once you got that kilo to miami it was worth fifty thousand
dollars how much the same kilo that was five grand in columbia was fifty grand over here so the
plummet alone holy shit what are we what are we doing we need to get to the transportation business
we'll pay uh some third party uh some independent contractor like monkey monday for example for
cocaine cowboys we'll pay these guys you know a thousand dollars fifteen hundred two grand a kilo
to smuggle it over here and turn it over to our guys that we put there on the ground which is
basically like fedex or ups or dhl delivering from you know apple in china to apples retail stores
in america that they set up all over the place and that's what the columbians that the columbians
oh opened and operated a multi-billion dollar court international corporation with with uh retail
or why should they wholesale outlets all over america and florida was the major uh the major
point of entry obviously because for the most part you could get away with uh with anything
you want to know they say the great thing about miami is it's so close to the united states
so they were able to function in miami as an offshoot of south america really of you know cuba
north or or or columbia north and and they were able to to really while the dea was distracted
with marijuana and heroin they were able to build an infrastructure for a multi-billion
dollar as i said multinational corporation based on a product that was 100 against against the law
it's really a remarkable unbelievable we talked about that yesterday made a point of that that you
were like they did all this but it was illegal yeah i mean imagine you're a businessman you've
created your product you know you've got this great invention where you think that you know people
are going to love this invention because it's it's widgets whatever the hell you it's an ipod
an ipad whatever it is but your challenge as a great you know because you know you can have
all the great ideas you want if you can't market it effectively if you can't distribute it effectively
get it into the right stores get into the hands of the of the taste makers who will uh who will
basically encourage other people to say well shit if i want to be cool i got to have an ipod if i
want to be cool i got to have a widget i got to do cocaine because that's all the cool kids
ask lee lastly we leased the producer of the podcast and i was telling him i did the joke
on the last podcast about how one of the one of the testicle testaments on how cocaine back then
was sunglasses to those uh lebron james glasses today that's it was it was something that you've
never saw before everything was two dollars like i told you yesterday weed was a nickel bag
thc crystal was ten dollars uh heroin was five dollars nickel bags were five dollars all of a
sudden this drug cocaine came and no fucking sample no nothing it was a hundred a gram and it
made you feel and look doing it like i'm not being a kid and but here's where you're correct
billy here's the beauty of it you're talking about homes and how this affected homes and families
somebody put a bullet and my my mom had that bar from 1964 on in 1966 my dad died remember my dad
was a cuban committee man the first cuban committee man and you didn't say in new jersey
i.e. he was selling heroin with the jews on the lower east side he got that heroin money and
opened up a cuban sandwich place in 55 at the time those people those politicians decided
that when you came into miami there was a big billboard that said unit city new jersey
number one in embroidery so the cubans that didn't stay in miami went to unit city
and it became this big cuban community of embroideries and then from uh seven street
in unit city to 48th street it was a cuban neighborhood you name it they had even the
movie theater was fucking cuban seen it don't he uh the movies were in spanish with english
subtitles fucking tremendous 1970 billy here's what the cubans had put together in unit city
my mother sold the cafe and opened up a bar after my dad passed uh from snorting the
fucking heroin in 66 and he was a cuban committee man uh they didn't sign his death certificate
he left a prudential policy for me which i never collected because the death certificate was never
signed the the guy in unit city they put him in a cask and they shipped him back to cuban
to fucking bury him before the word got out uh my mother opened up you know she kept the bar open
and she shut it because uh like you know later on the 70s cubans started to come up to violent
ones with the coke after my mother's bar closed she needed a way to make a different income
and i remember i would go to the basement we had a garage and then there was a stairway down
the basement in our house where there was like a little bar and i would do karate down there
and there was a boiler room and in the boiler room next thing you know started appearing
those bean sacks you know those coffee sacks coffee bean the big ones and i would look at them and
they'd be weed so for about six months there was always weed and i knew the guy that would come
over with his wife and they'd open up the garage and they'd close it and they'd do whatever they'd
do and i'd be upstairs making believe counting my chops because i would take that weed and sell it
at wholesale prices so every time the guy came my mom would come up to me a week later and go
did you were you downstairs no why weren't you you sure no and then she'd fucking scratch her head
and one day she finally told me the weed this guy's leaving always leaves here light you don't
smoke weed i'm like come on i don't do drugs i'm a jock but that weed like in the summer of 79
was in existence no more now that weed had become cocaine right i would go downstairs and it was
just bales of coke bales of coke and one day i finally yeah finally in october 79 i took some
i was petrified of it finally i took some and i brought it to high school and i did it at one
of the parties and again my mother came upstairs and said did you touch that fucking coke no i didn't
but that's what happened the weed went away it became it disappeared coke took over who the
fucks and i put a a bail of coke that you're gonna make a certain profit on to a little envelope
of coke which i'm gonna make the same fucking profit well it just made good business sense i mean
it really was just a natural evolution of the business and of course uh you know what happened
did uh did uh uh disco come first and then the drugs or did the drug trends uh change uh and then
the music changed but that's what also what happened is that the music the music changed and drug
trends are are cyclical you kind of have decades that are defined by certain drug trends you know
you have the psychedelics of of the uh of the sixties moving into to the more heroin age and
and marijuana age of the seventies the cocaine of the eighties the nineties it kind of came around
again to the sixties uh drugs i remember being in school you know kids were doing mushrooms and
acid and then of course ecstasy uh uh came up in the uh you know it was completely popularized and
in the nineties and then i just think it's interesting of course marijuana is a bit of
a perennial you know that marijuana is always it's a mainstay it's it's always a trend but but
financially in terms of where the business goes that there is a cyclical trend to to drugs that
i find really compelling you know we did a seventies marijuana documentary with square
grouper we did the eighties cocaine documentary with with cocaine cowboys and we did this
nineties ecstasy doc about the limelight uh i just saw that you know i used to go to the limelight
did you the the church in chelsea the church in chelsea i used to go there i went to a uh
xm i didn't know you did the limelight i just watched it with the guy with the fucking ipad
yeah i did that one yeah that's a great fucking thing too and and studio how studio cleaned up and
it became all those clubs and you know the underground and i used to always go to the
other one too webster hall you know i used to go to something i mean it wasn't my but you know
what's crazy i thought about the limelight i did think about copping there it was really easy to
cop there and in those days i was into ludes and the fucking bull i didn't know you did limelight
too you cuckuck i did yes it's been on showtime uh yeah i've been watching it's been it was on
yesterday and in the afternoon it was on yesterday and uh yeah we really was on yeah because square

now do me a favor email me the the uh the movie about the frat and i can have you back on i want
to talk about that with uh absolutely you gotta just mention it raw deal just mention it to me
mention it to people what it's about absolutely it's called raw deal a question of consent that
was our first movie we were 22 years old we were the youngest filmmakers in the history of sun dance
in those days uh and it was about the alleged rape of a stripper at a fraternity house at the
university of florida in gainsville and the entire night's events this was in the spring of 99
semester it was all caught on videotape by not one but two frat boys with video cameras and
the videotape footage wound up in the public record and we use it in the movie to reconstruct
the evening's events you hear from the stripper from the frat boys and then you see the video
footage and what makes it so compelling is that you've got reasonable people who watch the video
and watch the documentary and they disagree passionately about whether or not that the sexual
activity that that you witness in the movie is consensual or not i mean you'll literally split
the audience in half or half the people say that was a rape and the other half of the people go
bullshit that was consensual sex and everybody's watching the same the same footage it's a really
i think you know it's it's obviously our least known movie of all the other stuff the u and broke
