  • In this episode of the Wide Awake Podcast I spoke to former drug smuggler Tim Mcbride. Tim is a former Marijuana smuggler living on the edge of the Florida Everglades.

    What a cool guy, you can see he was made for this.
    And he seems pretty down to earth and chill for all that stuff he had and gone through, very inspirational. My favourite guest on the podcast so far.
    Keep up the great work

    Just saw your interview over on Mathew Cox channel so you’ve got a new subscriber. Can’t wait to watch the video right now of you interviewing your dad. You are very mature for your age and very well spoken. You’re doing a great job keep it up. Hugs from California

    Welcome back our Josh. I'm interested to know whether this man retired well and very financially stable or whether he lost it all? Fascinating story. Though if you look at the other side of the coin, while they were becoming wealthy, young people were getting hooked on gateway drugs.
