He has been a guest on The Joe Rogan Experience and NPR Ben’s extensive research involved tapping into the history and stories of various chemists, drug makers, drug dealers and criminals in the field. He went so far as creating an online persona on the dark web and then managed to infiltrate a Chinese drug lab while posing as a drug dealer! Say what??!
