This recap episode unpacks a complex discussion about escalating violence in Mexico, focusing on the historical and contemporary operations of drug cartels. It highlights the brutal tactics employed by cartels, including torture and sophisticated body disposal methods, and examines the normalisation of this violence within Mexican society. The conversation also unpacks the deep infiltration of cartels into Mexican politics and law enforcement, and discusses the US's historical involvement in destabilising the region, including past operations that inadvertently armed cartels. Finally, it considers the potential for increased US military intervention and the broader geopolitical implications of the ongoing conflict, suggesting a future where both nations must cooperate to find a resolution.

We all love The Joe Rogan Experience and much prefer the real thing, but sometimes it's not possible to listen to an entire episode or you just want to recap an episode you've previously listened to. The Joe Rogan Recap uses Google's NotebookLM to create a conversational podcast that recaps episodes of JRE into a more manageable listen.
On that note, for those that would like it, here's the public access link to the Google Notebook to look at the mind map, timeline and briefing doc - https://notebooklm.google.com/notebook/9040544e-1396-4579-83a9-d490659aeea6 - Please note, you must have a Google account to access.
