If I got a nickel every time I heard the word “Like”

This is by far the best podcast I’ve ever heard… And I’ve heard a lot😆 The way the twins told their story was like you were a fly on the wall, watching it all happen😱 So good!

I seen 50 post this on his ig I loved it can we get a new season on someone else’s we waiting

So good

You can almost fast-forward all the parts where they talk about how they did it for their family. The interesting parts are the insider knowledge they have of the drug trade and their personal story as twins, but it’s hard to understand the way they talk so I’d suggest following with the accompanying transcript. I wish there had been more interviews of law enforcement because they seem to care more about themselves, their family than the lives and families their “business” has ruined and it desperately calls for perspective. Having said that, what a feat to have gotten interviews with them. I wish it were better edited but it’s still worth a listen.

The

I have heard both seasons at least 3 times each. I have like 100+ questions!Do you guys realize how far up these twins were in the cartel?! I mean the secrets they know about how Mexico’s government really works! All the corruption that is involved and how unfair it is. I mean they know exactly how the drug arrives in the US. They know who can be bought, border patrol officers, police officers, etc. Let that sink in for a minute. It crazy to think that after all that they were able to survive such a corrupt system. While I believe that 14 years was such a long sentence, the degree they both went to help the US government should have allowed them for a more reduced sentence, but it was all a part of God’s plan. While separation while incarcerated was hard for them both God knew it was best for each of them to truly find themselves. He was preparing both of them for their paths. Hearing their children is heartbreaking. They have lost so much time without them but they are now better father’s because of it.

I don’t think anything I listen to is gonna top this. Crazy good story.

Just finished season 1. It was so good. Can’t wait to listen to the second season!

Good story, but definitely needs to be condensed more.

Surviving, El Chapo remains my favorite podcast. I finished it months months ago but forgot to leave a review. This podcast is captivating and so well done that I feel like I know the twins and their families.

It’s riveting and is so much more than just true crime, and it’s certainly not glorifying drug trafficking. It’s honest, heartbreaking, shockingly brave, nuanced, human, emotional, WILD, and surprisingly warm at times. The pacing of the episodes and the way Peter & Jay & Val & Viv tell stories is masterful. 10/10

I enjoyed listening to this story every night walking my dog, crazy life to live

Enjoyed listening to both seasons. Thank you for speaking to the brothers and sharing their story. Wish them best of luck in life.

Great production but the twins and their wives really don’t seem that remorseful for the life they led at all. Still excellent podcast.

This is by far one of the best stories I’ve heard. Can’t stop listening and S2E2. It’s so well done and I’m hooked. What a crazy life man.

I think it was a good podcast. Enough details so that we can understand what was going on . The Flores brothers did what was best for their family & themselves. Best of luck to both families!

These guys are straight up snitches

Love the show but I've found I'm missing 15-20% of the dialogue, and that's listening closely. Every transcript I've found is missing at least 25-30%. I'd really like to be able to better understand what's going on!

Interesting, nail biting and informative on what really goes on the underground drug industry. Life , love and fast cruel money a must listen, I ordered the book . Good luck to everyone involved

This podcast is AMAZING! Every episode is so well done, so well laid out and so very good. I am almost through Season 2 and I’m hoping there might be a S3! I would love to produce this as a feature film, but I’m sure someone else has already purchased the rights and is currently developing it. Thank you, 50 Cent + Charlie! You two are excellent. And thank you, Jay + Pete, for opening up your life story for the world to hear. Much love + respect to you and your families!

The detail, narrated by the Flores Twins! I have heard both seasons several times ! I recommend you hear it!

Way too much filler about how the twins missed their family. Of course that is super important and totally understand but this is a podcast, we are listening to a story, we get it and dont need to hear how much they missed their family on repeat over and over and over and over. And its of course very obvious they miss their family cuz they are stuck in prison. And i think they way minimized how much they loved their lifestyle when they were livin large. I dont think they should have snitched.

I’m drawn to the narco genre but this pod infantilizes the twins & thus minimizes their actions. Imagine how many lives & families destroyed? …Generational trauma & destruction b/c of the actions of these two? This pod is way too sympathetic on dealers of societal death and destruction. 14yr wasn’t enough, at least 20yr. How many ppl od’d on their heroin? Lost decades of their lives to addiction? The hidden cost to families and the future cost to society b/c children suffering 2nd hand consequences? This pod is produced in a way in which it narrates an excuse story for two really bad dudes who did big time damage to the world.

Best podcast!!

Best podcast of the year. Excellent narrative that kept me listening for hours. Started to root for these twins and had to keep reminding myself what they choose to do for a career.

Very interesting story. I certainly hope for the best for this family. Especially their children.

What an amazing job you guys did with this podcast! It’s one of the best I have ever listened to! Thank you for sharing your story in such a powerful way! The twins have a way to story tell in such a detail way that I was able to literally envision everything! The details they would include along with the sound effects were so important to try and be there and try to feel what they were going through! I can’t wait for the Documentary on this! This should def win an award!!!!! Sending a huge Shout out from chi-town💨stay blessed. 🙏👏👏👏

The twins and wife’s are braver than I could ever be! I know they made horrible choices in the beginning of their life but making right choices now is what is important! I pray that your families can heal and be together! To the wife’s … man I am praying for you both 🩷 Stay strong ladies! You are loved and needed!!

Who sound edited this? They sound like the mumble brothers plus they are way to long winded. Good story though

This is an amazing story from all sides. I do observe that US Government was clear as mud in what was offed to PnJ and family. Honestly these prosecutors appear to be shooting fish in a barrel by going after your wives as y’all get out. I truly believe there are others out there they could spend their time going after, such easy game getting your wives. Please don’t get me wrong, wrong is wrong. I’m sure a conversation could have happened regarding charges to your wives. To come at your house so aggressive when non of that has been reciprocated on your side, I mean really, our tax dollars at work, yes I’m annoyed. I wish you all well, life will bless you in the changes you have made. Be well all

So glad yall back. It’s crazy hearing other stories and they are still in the fold. I hope to get a Season 3!!! Also where can I write to their wives and hold them DOWN over these next 3 years?

This was sooo good! Can we get a season three??

I want these families to be together. This is a heartbreaking situation.

In the wives book it say he died at a car wash so why here is it at a hair salon, can’t believe what they say 🤬🙄

I’d heard of El Chapo of course, but I’d never heard of the twins. Listening to their story in their own words, in their own voices, is riveting. The twins are charismatic, honest, and a bit cocky, and they are also loving dads, brothers and husbands who do whatever they can to make it back home to their families. Their rollercoaster lives had me on the edge of my seat! Hearing the anguish in their voices and the voices of their wives and children’s of not just their their work and incarceration, but also their decision to turn on the most notorious drug lord in history is absolutely fascinating!

Growing up in the inner city I’ve seen first hand how someone can get caught up in the drug trade or organized crime in general. I applaud them for wanting a better life for their kids. After listening to the price they had to pay to become a voluntary US informant I would imagine they regret their decision and anyone who contemplates making that choice, upon hearing this podcast, wouldn’t chose it either.

I’ve listened to all of the episodes and just can’t anymore. They make these guys out to be some type of heroes, they are criminals and snitches. They are not good role models, not good parents, not good people. Man it is exhausting listening to them play victim over and over sort of ruins the story.

I think the government did them so wrong after what they did to bring down El Chapo die just goes to show you you can not trust our government

love this gives a different perspective I also love hearing from the twins wife, how they also basically were doing time with the kids visiting I know the struggle.!

Is like hearing a novela but is real life. Loveee

Over all it’s a interesting story to hear so people will listen. But this could have been way better if Charli would of asked something else besides “how did that make you feel” second season was not it we know jail is not a nice place and that it’s hard thanks for reminding us of that. Adding the kiddos was not it either.

AMAZING podcast! Great listen had my on my seat the entire show

Wish they wouldn’t play the victim in this story. They were cartel traffickers who screwed up probably thousands of lives. The woe is me act from them and their wives is too much. I can’t listen anymore

Real, raw, honest!

This series is riveting and absolutely incredible. The first person accounts are amazing. My only complaint is that ii is hard to understand the twins due to the way they speak. I wish there was close captioning! Otherwise great.

Amazing from start to finish. This absolutely deserves a DocuSeries and a TVSeries. Amazing

Pod cast is dope 50 nailed it. Great story and Background was dope as well.

Thank you for tuning in. I want to clarify that my intention isn't to justify my past mistakes, but rather to share my journey. As human beings, we all experience a spectrum of emotions - love, joy, pain, guilt, regret, and sorrow. These feelings are inherent to our nature, regardless of whether we're deemed 'good' or 'bad'. Even when our suffering is self-inflicted, it remains a genuine part of our experience. I'm grateful to have learned the truths behind a life many glamorize. Our decision to walk away stemmed from numerous valid reasons, including a desire to no longer be 'bad'. I hope our listeners understand that I wasn't born to be a podcaster or actor. My past life as a drug trafficker and businessman was mostly shrouded in secrecy, and it's not always easy to discuss openly. So forgive me if it’s not perfect . However, viewing it from the outside, I can appreciate different perspectives on it. I owe a heartfelt apology to my wife and children (I❤️u VLO) and I promise to dedicate my life to making positive choices and actions . My goal is to rewrite my story and create a legacy my family can be proud of. Our story has many untold chapters, and I invite you all to follow along and reserve judgment until the full story unfolds. To those still in the streets, I hope our journey – both the mistakes and successes – can serve as a lesson. The reality is, many won't reach the heights we did, and perhaps that's a blessing in disguise. Remember, it's never too late to change. In a game with no rules and no guaranteed victories, choosing a new path is always an option." May God keep you safe and give you the strength to make those hard decisions…

I believe they did the best they could and the government failed all of them. The twins should have gotten a sentence decrease and the wife’s should of never been charged. They were helping their husbands with the case they were placed to testify against el chapo. Like that’s another reason why I don’t believe in the justice system in the US they are just not right.
