Fernando Puente grew up living between the US / Mexico border in the worst parts of Tijuana, and by the age of 18, he was already crossing immigrants over the US border illegally for one of Mexico’s most notorious cartels. Today Fernando writes stories, and hosts his own podcast @ElBordoMx with the aim to inspire & give hope to the disadvantaged youth in Mexico.

I love how this guy is so hard, yet he corrects his grammar the entire podcast as if he wants to have college level English. When you notice it, you can’t not notice it. Better than 99% of US Americans.
Flipping awesome episode. Epic stories.
I don’t think they watched Narcos Mexico. El mayo was a big character in it wasnt he the guy with the boat?
This is guy has a little piece of every Latino in him ! This was goldddd! 🔥🔥
It’s so good to hear someone who still understands and holds true to their values. Giving the grace that he does to his friends is what is missing in people nowadays. No judgement in how they choose to walk, embracing people for the good exchanges had. ❤ this conversation.
This guest sucks! Dude thinks he's way more important than he is.
Pingas!!
What a nothing of a story
Yeah he's a cop .
Came across this at about 2 am got sleep problems. Thought I would check it out. Glad I did this is one of the best I've watched so far. Watch yourself little brother. The dirt is better under your feet.
1:30:50 When he's tied up, head between his knees and say's "you should come be on my podcast"🤣
Mayo is 1000% in Narcos Mexico!!!!! he's the one with the shrimp boat
The content is excellent, but the intro song is quite off-putting.
Very intelligent guy! You can tell he’s a solid person.
Zika is a hell of a disease
Dam did you go Castle Park High????
9:04 vlad is that you 🤔
Listen to this. All I'm saying he speaks for mi. Mi jennte
If he really is cartel, then why is he showing his face? They don't talk to no one.
Good stuff I'm glad his friends family had that $3000 handy, when his friend had it handy at the swap meet to pay the $1000 for the computer when said friend whipped out $3000 before the police abduction. I guess they made "$6000" that day plus a clean gun. I'm moving to TJ tomorrow. Very interesting story teller though and I know for fact he's a great artist. Work on the story telling though. Peace
This dude sounds like a fraud…… sounds like he's making it up as he goes
Cannabis been legal in MA since 2016 and traditoonal market is alive and well still.
Just FYI El mayo is portrayed in Narcos: Mexico
W😮W, I am just listing for only a few minutes, but this dude is …. How can he smiling & laughing about human trafficking and what else he did…some dudes better spent their life behind bars, just WOW
Clonazapan is a generic benzo used for anxiety
2:15:47 "the wall not a problem we have i mean not we they have" 😂😂😂 bro had to catch himself
It's not 2AM, it's 0139
@ 2:07:28 Mayo was in narcos Mexico show he was a fisherman
I can really relate to Mr. Puente’s mom: as a single mother there was a point in my life where I was slanging drugs just to make ends meet. I wasn’t getting high or anything, but I ended up getting caught up and went straight. Ended up starting my own company and everything has been great since!
Great story man. This is fascinating 👏
They do mention him in narcos. He’s literally a fucking character. Do ur research BEFORE speaking.
Greatest intro for a podcast ever!!!
Great interview real reconisez real he "almost" exposed ed c.
What a Thumbnail!!!😂 the condescending smile.
Mayo not in Narcos? Who the F run the shrimp trawlers in Mazatlan?. Arellano Felix brothers set fire to one of them, before Mayo finally joined Sinaloa after being independent for years.
Tablazo is the act of get wiped with a wooden bed board…
Great video 👍🏽
tabla = paddle
