What does it really take to live a double life inside the mafia—and survive?

On this episode of the AJ Buckley Show, we sit down with retired ATF Special Agent Lou Valoze, one of the most decorated undercover agents in American history. For 26 years, Lou lived a life few could imagine—deep undercover inside the Chicago mafia, outlaw biker gangs, and domestic terror networks.

Lou Valoze helped remove over 1,000 illegal firearms from the streets and played a key role in convicting 300+ violent criminals. He also pioneered the infamous “storefront sting” operations—creating fake tattoo shops, head shops, and military surplus stores to lure in gun traffickers, hitmen, and organized crime figures.

His groundbreaking work has been featured on CNN, Discovery, and now in his hit series Operation Undercover on Discovery+ and ID. Lou is also the author of multiple books, including his newest release, Ray Khan: The Betrayal of an Informant.

In this powerful and unfiltered conversation, Lou reveals what it truly takes to infiltrate the darkest corners of crime—and the personal cost that comes with it.

A personal crisis that nearly broke him—and how he fought back
