I found this story yesterday and was quite confused as well, because in the YouTube video of him telling the story that they link, he just leaves that part out. But in the audio at the top of the page (and the transcript), he explains it.
It is covered if you hear the full podcast episode. Coincidentally, I heard the episode only last week and was one of my favourite episodes from this podcast so far.
> JASON: I accidentally robbed the wrong bank the last time I was in Beirut.
Right there in the article/podcast.
His second anecdote; after drinking too much soda pop, being distracted by looking for a bathroom.
It doesn't. He walked up to the door of the wrong bank and his driver alerted him.
My wife just shared this podcast with me. That’s in the first two-thirds - the last third is where he breaks in to the wrong bank.
That’s a different incident. There’s another, much more serious wrong-bank story near the end of the interview.
