Boston George Dies at 78.PNG

Over the past few years, I (Kevin) got to spend a lot of time with the infamous cocaine smuggler, George Jung. Also known as Boston George and most famously known for being portrayed by Johnny Deep in the Movie "Blow." I was able to work closely with George when I worked on the documentary about George's life, his trials and tribulations as a drug smuggler, his life in and out of the prison system, and his time spent with infamous drug czars, Pablo Escobar and Carlos Lehder. In this episode, we will dive into my time spent with George and the weird times we had together while I shot this project. RIP Boston George you will be missed. Thanks to John LaConte for jogging my memory of the good times with George.
