Remi Adeleke on Black Market Organ Harvesting, A SEAL Hunting the Traffickers | AJ BuckleyShow

Former Navy SEAL Remi Adeleke now hunts the people behind the illegal organ trade. In this episode of The AJ Buckley Show, he takes AJ inside that world: how the desperately poor are pressured to sell their organs to survive, and the film he made to expose it. From Nigeria to the Bronx, from the streets to the Navy SEAL Teams, Remi Adeleke's story is almost impossible to believe, and every word of it is real. AJ sits down with Remi, a former U.S. Navy SEAL, author, filmmaker, actor, and human trafficking activist. Born in Nigeria and later raised in the Bronx after his family lost everything, Remi opens up about the journey that took him from struggle, bad decisions, and survival mode to becoming one of America's elite warriors. He joined the Navy in 2002, became a SEAL, and used the discipline and pain of that world to completely transform his life. His memoir, Transformed: A Navy SEAL's Unlikely Journey from the Throne of Africa, to the Streets of the Bronx, to Defying All Odds, tells the story of his rise, fall, redemption, and reinvention. Beyond the military, Remi has built a career as a writer, filmmaker, and actor, appearing in Transformers: The Last Knight, 6 Underground, Ambulance, and Plane. He also wrote and directed The Unexpected, a short film exposing the dark reality of human trafficking and illegal organ harvesting. In this conversation, AJ and Remi get into the organ trade, fighting human trafficking, the Navy SEAL mindset, faith, fatherhood, discipline, redemption, growing up in the Bronx, and what it means to use your story to help others. This is a story about survival, transformation, and purpose, from losing everything to becoming everything he was meant to be.
