Yeahhhh right buddy@@tuckerbugeater
@@tuckerbugeateryou’re so smart
Coyote: "You cannot let the fear consume you"
Andrew: "Ooh cows"
You kinda forget you're watching channel 5 news and then he does shit like that lmao
@@ABadGamblelmaoo exactly, i be like wtf goin on. then it hits me💀
Dude he’s so wholesome
vacas
What does that even mean
Andrew's happiness from seeing free cows was so amazing to watch 😂 "VACAS, Vacas, vacas..."
The fact that he kept mumbling it into the mic all breathy and weird was pure art.
THIS is real journalism. Not that oversensationalized bullshit on TV. Thank you Andrew!
there are a few options in between and proper journalism is still being done everywhere...
i'm not saying mr Andrew's efforts and intentions shouldn't be recognized (the more we understand what's going on the better for everyone) but we're acting a bit silly :)
(someone like Maria Hinojosa covering this very topic for over 30yrs for example, following migrants, caravans, smugglers, etc.. or Julieta Martinelli, another award winner who's been reporting on the ground on this subject and many more related since at least 2018...)
@@duroxkilooh I am sure there are still reputable journalists out there. From what I can gather online Maria Hinojosa only recently got into the tv game with her own broadcasting company playing on pbs. I believe Andrew is also independent (self funded) and not backed by huge media conglomerates. My comment was more aimed at the ilk of fox, cnn, etc. that produce nothing but rage bait and will not do any actual reporting as it goes against their donors wallets. Andrew just reaches a wider audience than the examples you provided and most certainly in a younger age demographic. Thank you for providing more reporters though that everyone can look into to gain more information on the subject.
You know he just woke up one day and said I’m a journalist 😅
@@duroxkiloexactly
i understand...
i'm pleasantly surprised each time i encounter a constructive interaction in the comments' section...
i wish mr Andrew and other young folks w/ great intentions would find ways to collaborate in some form w/ seasoned journalists because it's super difficult to properly do this job.
just 'jumping in' has it's merits and can be impactful but i'm afraid complex topics require something more and this is as complex of a topic as it gets.
ps: there;s a voice included in each and every documentary montage on 'exotic social topics', we've all heard that voice reporting the news in the background... Amy Goodman is a queen of journalism, she's a week late on most 'hot topics' :) but if she covers something, it's pretty much a guarantee the subject is an important one for the society...
she and her team was on the border yrs ago, but they constantly cover this subject. i may be mistaken but i think it was at the time that ASU professor was being charged/harassed by the previous administration for basically not letting migrants die of dehydration in the desert. @@CudiPeakedatMOTM
A 19 year old reassuring you they "know what's up" is always comforting lol
Well, when that 19 year old has been through what he has been through, i am preatty sure you can trust him
@@alou_1169Not sure about that
@@Cabbage7Patchnobody says that though, everyone knows what people like the top are lIke, and Rtj is commie degenerate propaganda to mislead kids by using catchy beats and lyrics…. Like always
Lol it sounds crazy but I'll take the word of an 18 yo who knows life and struggles over that of a sheltered 30 yo any day. Experience > age
When you live in your moms basement, in a first world country, you would understand how stupid this particular comment is
Andrew: "You can't build a wall in a river"
Dams: Am I a joke to you‽
Beavers give no fucks.
Dam: I am so expensive
ever tried sailing a boat up a dam?
Give bro a break he went to college
Chain link fence now identifies as wall
Larry Susan is a legend for this. Taking that risk just to film for this video is so admirable. He went through everything that Andrew did plus having to focus on framing shots and taking audio. So much respect to that guy for doing this.
24/7 news is just bad for everyone involved. But this? This is journalism and you're doing what too many others with the title wont. Thanks for that Andrew and the Channel 5 crew.
Do not be fooled… border patrol are horrible people snd feds… they are not here to help
Yeap no stupid speculation or "expert" opinions. The guy just actually goes there.
Granted its closer to propaganda than actual news, but sure.
@@libidinousbear4563propaganda for what or whom I pray ask? In my opinion this is propaganda in the direction of humanization
I mean to be fair if andrew didn't have his rep this wouldn't be possible.
Dawg 7 vids of this quality in one month is insane. Bless up u guys are an inspiration to me
I know, I wish he would spend more time on the sex crimes, this journalism is just a distraction
@@lauriemtaylor Andrew has never been accused of a sex crime.
I love how people come into places with baseless accusations
@@lauriemtayloroh brother

The best journalist America has seen In 25 years. I’m not kidding.
What about all the "I don't ask questions, but I push the narrative that I want to"?
dudes gonna get himself kidnapped for ransom
Not even top 500. Real reporters are unbiased and don't push a narrative.
@@spammerscammer nobody is unbiased. He does a good job of just reporting the honest facts and keeping his personal biases out of it. Sorry that you can't stand to see anything that doesn't cater to your own biased views.
@@spammerscammerwhen reporting the facts is considered pushing a narrative you know your worldview is cooked lmao
Andrew's so deft at showing us the human side of issues, of people who are often dehumanized for a headline or for outrage in mainstream media. This is what journalism is supposed to be.
I really liked the "vacas" segment in the middle of the conversation with the coyotes at 21:49
Your excitement seeing the cows was so endearing
@@Cabbage7Patchwhat bro
@@Cabbage7Patchare you ok?
vacas!
¡vacas!
Relax
Maybey Eagle Pass is a remote small town that nobody has heard of, but you still managed to find a rapper in there. Once again proving your incredible hiphop-based investigation technique.
I think its actually genius. Most underground rappers are rather in tune with the streets of where they live. At least thats what most of them portray.
I’ve seen him in a few different CZcamsrs doing interviews like this even though his a rapper.
90% of people under 25 are 'rappers'
@@pipeline8554that gotta be racis-…
@@pipeline8554 and the other 10% are all "DJs"🤣😂😁
You never miss. No one can touch Channel 5 right now. You guys are the real MVPs.
RIP APETOR one of my favorite CZcamsrs to watch!!! Thanks for honoring his legacy in that clip you posted of him.
Y'know what's crazy? Andrew and Channel 5 seem so DIFFERENT from traditional media. It's like he's interested in portraying a real reality, and not a partisan reality. And it's RARE.
Ye fr its just "what is actually happening" with zero spin.
I mean I watch your American news sometimes and it’s legit. Unless you are referring to fox which is mostly false. Americans just don’t trust anyone because their gov is such a mess from trump and other people from both sides like Schumer, McConnell, Taylor Greene etc.
What a unique observation
Wow, what a unique comment. I’m certain I’ve never seen anything like that before on any of his other videos!
Copy paste template comment
"i felt like i was trapped working"
Crazy how true this is
La problema es capitalisimo
Seriously the best journalist in the US puts his stuff for free on CZcams
So many of our clueless congress members should watch this channel.
When the coyote said all Americans do is work and sleep that hit home for me.
this is such an overworked nation, it's in fact difficult to explain it to people...
i know two guys who decided to return to europe realizing how insane working in the US is.
one's in france, one's in spain, it's not heaven in either place but they seem Much more relaxed since they left
@@duroxkilo many in France work 4 day weeks, 10 hours a day. So it makes sense
Also Spain has their notorious siestas
I hope gen Z and alpha is able to change things cause millennial are
@@angelirizarry2666 it's horrible that the 40 hours work week is ingrained like a religion in American culture ever since the early 1900s
@@HaloDude557 It's funny that in the early 1900's, the 40H work and the 9-5 were progressive ideas, because many people were working even crazier hours such as 12 hours/day, 6 days/week. One extra challenge of modern work culture that I feel people don't pay enough attention to is that although we work less hours per week than the average worker in the 50s-80s, you're now expected to do a lot of extra work that's not accounted for in official numbers (such as responding to work emails and texts from your boss outside work). Also, the number of unpaid overtime hours has risen, so you're getting less bang for your buck. There's some studies on a 32H work week, and although that may not be feasible for all industries, numerous studies show it can quite noticeably increase productivity, resulting in little loss or even potential gain for business, while obviously providing great mental and/or physicial benefits for the workers.
@@HaloDude557 40 hours a week would be nice.I and most people I know work much more than that.
Andrew capturing all this while non of the mainstream media has even came close to this type of journalism work. Channel 5 is the best in the game. (Andrew speaking Spanish really threw me off but my respect for him went up)
You mean like all of those Chinese nationals that were coming over the border? There's people doing better you refuse to open your eyes tho
Glaze some more bro, mind if I can unzip too?
Must be a bot
dudes peddling the same bullshit the republicans are
Our politicians don't want to stop the border crisis or the drug crisis (which Reagan era started) because it brings in votes and attention that's why almost all politicians are talking about it but doing absolutely nothing, our political parties might aswell be companies that choose who can be president because the only difference between them is which elites and corporations they work and lobby for
Andrew you are more real than any journalist in America. We are lucky to have you

His Spanish is really good

More public informative value than 99.9% of other American media. Thank you 🙏
99.99999999999%
More informative, unbiased, and just plain showing reality
PBS is great, so is AP and NPR. Andrew is great, but he is an amateur.
@@evoliciouslmao
@evolicious npr is legitimately one of the most baised news sources out, its the left wings version of infowars. Lol.
I dont think andrew understands how much respect we got for him for learning Spanish
Bro this was educational as hell. I loved this and I genuinely appreciate the effort that your team and you put into these videos.
Unreal! Thanks for sharing this information, you and your crew are changing the course of history with this stuff. Best of luck and stay safe out there!
I don't know why I am still amazed that I didn't know that Andrew could speak Spanish pretty well despite watching the last few episodes
literally same hahah
Speaking and being able to listen and know what they're saying are much different and he seems to have both dialed in for a gringo. Much respect, indeed!
I think every know and then he does not understand the answers but continues the conversation regardless
@bigweedbandit1012 it is tough I can read a decent amount of Spanish words and understand their meaning but when someone speaking Spanish is speaking full paragraphs to me it gets kinda tough to keep up lol. I'm working on it though!
@@JosephWalker-ip7pdSame here brother, dating a mexican helps a lot
How you keep your finger on the pulse is insane. So much going on in Texas and with the border right now. Amazing work - just incredible!
It’s been national news for like a month buddy. lol, finger on the pulse.
@@Floodedaquatics you think they planned and filmed this all in the last week??? This trip and the arizona one too probably were planned a couple months ago at least, and filmed a few weeks ago at least. Takes time to edit these type of videos and put them out (unless they are super fast which they could be idk)
One simple way to determine that is to look at how long it takes for an upload after a major event.
@@Floodedaquatics Hey buddy, turns out all of this was in October! So, in fact, he was ahead of the media. Even ahead of Gov. Abbott! Just wanted to touch base and let you know that he was keeping his finger on the pulse.
@@ethanbowman3712 oh ya so he was sitting on this footage for 4 months?! No chance at all
Stay safe out there Andrew. You’re doing incredible work.
Love what you're doing! Keep up the amazing work.
Im from one of the most narco torn cities in Mexico, a border town in Tamaulipas to be precise. I have been, seen and heard of many different sketchy situations ever since I have memory, and seeing you do this without appearing nervous or scared… you have my respect.
Are you talking about Matamoros? that's where my dad's from I heard of dudes robbing people with ice picks back when I was a kid
@@6eight9yup shout out Matones , Tamaulipas
I think it's less bravery and more just not knowing the full risk. Although Andrew certainly is brave. I don't think I'd meet coyotes from internet messages and do this unless I had some sort of security.
he does have some safety , or it can go all bad, if streamed now that be something.. i am not on patron so i am not see full story..hate that some of what seem great is pay walled
@@rollerboogie It's called being a true journalist, which Andrew is, unlike MSM "journalists" who are fake news, frauds and liars that's beholden to who ever pays them. Thank GOD for citizen journalism, only way to get the truth today.
The parenthesis about swimming abilties being influenced by economics and Santa Muerte were great 👍 Hope you keep adding these history/socioeconomics bits.
Do you realize how silly you sound when you say swimming is based on social econmic policies?
@@jay1jayf Many studies have been done in countries around the world showing the link between socioeconomic status and swimming competence. You can call it silly, but facts don't care about your feelings.

Andrew is really out there putting in the work to let us all what real journalism is👏
Gonzo journalism drives views. That's what this is. He's very lightweight on anything else
His videos have been amazing lately.
On hood!
i hate your profile picture
@@Agigahergerhater detected 🧐
This is a great example of the the future of journalism as legacy and corporate media dies out! More courageous and interesting than anything I’ve seen on ABC, CNN, FOX, etc.
It's because those companies operate to make money, not state the news. Andrew is concerned with documenting reality while news corporations are concerned with making money.
Yeah, and the ultimate goal behind all of it, is to push an agenda which is to manipulate, brainwash, and destroy the country.
Well said amigo
NPR, The Guardian, The Atlantic, PBS, AP, and the BBC all have award-winning talented journalists, doing far higher quality research and journalism than Andrew is capable of.
Not every news org is like Fox and CNN.
The guardian and BBC 🤣🤣🤣
Andrew is the most important journalist of our day. Mainstream media would never interview a coyote nor document their process of entering the country illegally. Big massive ups
I feel like Vox back in the day would, not anymore tho they are way too corporatized now.
big respect to teh whole channel 5 crew for delivering such amazing content
The Patreon video was intense as hell. Literally the only Channel I’ve ever subscribed on Patreon to and so worth it just to get an accurate analysis on what’s really happening down there
Did he really get arrested ?!?
@@juanmagdaleno6679we are waiting on the final part but yeah the last video ended with him being caught. It’s one of the craziest videos I’ve ever seen and have mad respect for Andrew for doing this
yea, republicans causing issues to make everything bigger than it is
Same. First and only Patreon I've ever joined and supported. Worth the money!
nah still not paying for your patreon.
Coyote: Si no agarras el miedo, te come y...
Andrew: OwO vacas
Andrew said in the patreon comments that he wasn't fluent in Spanish enough to know what the coyote was saying at that moment, so he went with the cow diversion.
@@jeffp.9369 lmaaaoo had no idea haha that's crazy guess I'll have to subscribe to their patreon then
Allright Andrew this is what it’s all about great work ❤ good luck with you future interview work
ive been watching for years. your journalism radicalized me
what
I dunno if radicalization is what he’s shooting for but you do you
@@imterriblysorry4678right I think he’s trying to be non bias and just show what’s happening that’s it.
It’s nuts how him and his team can pump these out so fast with so much depth.
I haven't paid attention to the dates, are these actually posted after filming each one or did he film it all and edit it after at the same time?
Nothing beats authentic passion and faith. Can't be replicated. It can move mountains.
Calm down I can see Andrew’s ball imprint on your chin.

HOW HIUS MEAT TASTE LIL BRO
I still think it’s his sex crime work that’s most impressive, journalism, less so
They're all talking about fear then suddenly Andrew stops, starts staring at cows and whispering over and over again... If I were the two coyotes I might be thinking twice about who I was dealing with hahaha
not weird at all by mexican standards. i once went to a paid public bathroom and while i was pooping the guy i paid pulled out a karaoke machine and microphone and just started singing. and thats pretty common
so grateful for this content. always go with your gut dude ur crushing it
Amazing work Andrew! Subscribed to your patreon to support this incredible journalism. Inspiring and wonderful work, keep it up 👍
Thanks Andrew, glad someone is willing to actually get over there in person and show us what’s going on.
Thousands of people walk across the border, both ways, every day. You could too, all this shit is literally the fakest of fake news that has ever been created. There is no crisis at the border, there is no "migrant crisis".

Thanks for everything you do Andrew
Utterly amazed by this incredible gonzo journalism. Loving the photography direction and edition. Please keep it up.
This is the best and most insightful journalism I’ve ever seen and i am now on the patreon
You make journalism be a truly heartfelt and powerful thing.
Thank you Andrew for all you do!
great video as always from one andrew to another u rock
Andrew you are the GOAT. No one is doing it like you.
Man I've been in sketchy situations in Mexico, but this one goes beyond how comfortable I would feel, the moment you got in this "taxi" was actually quite worrying. Amazing content man! Thank you for covering it!
Since we are seeing this video I guess a spoiler warning was afoot :D
Seriously, anything could’ve happened.
I hope Andrew filmed all these Latin America videos before calling out the cartels in his streets series because damn man I can't imagine they'd look kindly on 6 million people seeing him talk about their fentanyl business with the Hondos and how they deal Tranq and assassinate people in Philly
Illegality remains illegality. So - everyone remigrates again. ALL OF THEM! Without exception. Economic hardship is NOT a reason for asylum!
yall some bitches
I'm so glad you are down there doing real journalism! Thanks, Andrew and team!
It’s disappointing that the multi-million dollar media conglomerates that survive off of reporting “news” in America are blown away by some independent CZcamsr. Any number of the MSM outlets have the capability to provide this level of journalism on one of the most divisive issues facing the nation, but simply choose not to. Anyway, it’s nice to see Andrew humanize some of the most pressing issues our nation faces.
Bro the work you're doing is the best on CZcams! Keep it up
This is the type of journalism we need, unbiased and showing all sides. Thank you!
Definitely biased but he gives us amazing footage.
Regardless of what folks think about you brother, your boots on the ground journalism has become second to none. You really are doing good work partner
The insider perspectives are so important for understanding context, thank you for the work you do.
You guys are absolutely fearless .
Thank you for making this bit here free
Thanks for being out there! Channel 5 world wide!
15:41 just a small correction on the captions in this frame. The price used to be $8,000 USD, not pesos.
Loving the series so far. Awesome work
Love your work dude! Keep it up!
you guys are the best, thanks for showcasing this
the vacas break was much needed
Andrew you are the best at what you do and thank you for bringing light into this. These kids doing this kind of work is not good on them, but the necessity to provide for their families is what drives good people to extremities like this, most of us don’t understand what real poverty is and it’s very sad. it’s sometimes over look that These kids are still good people. I feel for them, my family comes from this and I’m very glad to be here. Anyways thank you so much for bringing awareness to this and seeing what it takes to get here and how difficult it is. I hope we can come together and figure a way to make this path easier for those who do want to work here and live here.
I hope the next part becomes public eventually! Can't afford to support right now but absolutely admire your content
Thank you for documenting and reporting on these issues in a real and honest way.
Im happy andrew didnt quit making videos. Dudes a legend
All gas no brakes baby channel 5 “Andrew” you’re legendary broski
This is what we need to see this is beautiful thank you for showing this side of journalism.
been watching your channel for a minute man, so glad to see this kind of journalism shared. unfiltered and just the straight facts. thank you for the work you do.
Must be really good if you say that after a mere 60 seconds.

Please be safe Andrew and crew! Keep up the great work, guys!
you forgot to highlight the fact that Marilyn Monroe's mom was born in Piedras Negras. We only have 3 cool facts. the nachos, Marilyn Monroe's moms birthplace, and the scene in No Country for Old Men (where the detective is sitting in a plaza in front of a church). those projects you referred to are part of Mexico's social housing programs by CONAVI (national commission of housing)

Great video once again. Made me sad tho especially hearing how the coyote described battling fear. He has to have such a crazy strong sense of self just to keep going and even reflecting on his experiences must of been something I can’t even describe
Honestly appreciate you putting yourself in uncomfortable situations to bring us what is really going on. Bravo to you 👏
