Pubco cocaine is here: What does it mean, who’s in, and who’s real?
I recently listened to a podcast episode of Search Engine with PJ Vogt, and I REALLY got into it. The episode was titled, “Why are drug dealers putting fentanyl in everything?” I’d asked myself the same question many times – why kill your customers?
