Vault 7: The CIA Hacker Who Stole America’s Secret Cyber Weapons Joshua Schulte was one of the CIA’s most trusted systems engineers, with access to some of the agency’s most sensitive hacking tools and cyber capabilities. Then roughly 34 terabytes of classified CIA material ended up with WikiLeaks. In this episode of Deadly Intentions, Bubba and Pete break down the incredible Vault 7 case, from Schulte’s rise inside an elite CIA technical unit and the workplace conflicts that consumed him, to the theft of thousands of classified files and the massive investigation that followed. The story only gets stranger from there, with bail violations, a smuggled prison cellphone, attempts to leak information from behind bars, multiple federal trials, Schulte representing himself in court, and ultimately a 40-year prison sentence. This is the story of Joshua Schulte, WikiLeaks, Vault 7, and the breach the CIA described as the largest data loss in its history.

Bubba and Pete continue their deep dive into the rise of Mexico’s modern cartel system, tracing what happened after the old Guadalajara structure fractured and independent networks began competing for territory, routes and influence. The episode follows the evolution of Sinaloa, Tijuana, Juárez, the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas, including the air bridge that helped keep Sinaloa alive, tunnels beneath the border, large-scale smuggling operations, U.S. distribution hubs and the alliances that reshaped the drug trade. They also examine how the system became increasingly fragmented, with hundreds of organizations operating across Mexico, setting the stage for the emergence of Jalisco New Generation.

Chris, better known as “Black,” joins Bubba the Love Sponge to tell the remarkable story of growing up as the only white kid in an all-Black community on the rough side of St. Petersburg, Florida, where the nickname “Black” followed him for life. Chris opens up about fighting to survive as a kid, entering the drug trade at a young age, the choices that eventually led to federal prison, and serving 15 years behind bars. He also shares what prison life was really like, how those years changed him, and how he rebuilt his life after coming home. Today, Chris has turned his past into a purpose through Black Label and his podcast Pain and the Purpose, using his platform to share stories of people who have survived extreme circumstances and found a way forward. It’s a raw conversation about race, identity, the streets, prison, survival, redemption, and becoming something bigger than where you started.

Bubba and Pete trace the history of the North American drug trade from its earliest roots to the birth of the modern cartel era. The story begins with the Manila Galleons and centuries of trade between China and Mexico, then moves through opium production in Sinaloa, Chinese immigration, Civil War-era morphine demand, Prohibition and organized crime. From Bugsy Siegel and the mob to Operation Condor, Pablo Escobar, Kiki Camarena, Rafael Caro Quintero and the Guadalajara Cartel, they follow the people, politics and economic forces that transformed the trade. The journey ends in 1989, when the collapse of the Guadalajara network helped give rise to the cartel structure that would dominate the decades that followed.
