#331 - Style, Murder & Pee - The Flamboyantness of Hector "Macho" Camacho Nov 23, 2022

Show notes

This week, we check out one of the most flamboyant, wild, and successful boxers who has ever lived. His outfits. His crazy entrances. And even his in ring style was different from all the rest. Unfortunately, his style of getting arrested was also very different. Whether it's having sex, while driving a Ferrari on the freeway, or just dropping through an electronics store ceiling, to steal lap tops, and urinate in the fax machine. He fought cops, regular people, his wife, and his girlfriend, in the street. All of this while being on an insane amount of cocaine! In the end, the whole thing is a murder mystery, for the ages!!

Call going to Rikers Island "just having some fun", snort more cocaine by yourself than most mid sized cities, and have one of your girlfriends & your sister fight at your funeral with Hector "Macho" Camacho!!

#330 - All You Need Is Love... And Heroin - The Unenlightenedness of Reggie Harding Nov 15, 2022

Show notes

This week, we look at the first high school basketball player to be drafted by the NBA. The problem was, by that time, he was already accumulating a criminal record that would far surpass anything he would ever do on the basketball court. He was accused of awful things, including an allegedly doing one of those awful things to a future member of The Supremes. He never learned his lesson. Kept drinking, shooting heroin, and finally robbing drug dealers to make a living. This all ends as badly as you might think, but the story isn't over, because his son (a junior) has done even worse things!!

Go straight from high school to the NBA, knock a policeman's hat off his head, and turn into your local, neighborhood Omar with Reggie Harding!!

#329 - Drugs, Death Penalties & Shipping Fees - The Innovativeness of Reginald Spiers Nov 10, 2022

Show notes

This week, we check out one of the weirdest, craziest stories, ever! He was an Australian javelin thrower, but there isn't much sports to talk about here. Why? Because this guy did so much more. Including putting himself into a wooden box, and shipping himself COD from London, all the way to Australia. From there, he got deep into drug smuggling, with some pretty ingenious ideas. Only problem is, he keeps getting caught. Including being caught with heroin in Sri Lanka, and being sentenced to death! Did he survive to smuggle another day??

Throw things for international acclaim, ship yourself 13,000 miles, and start a smuggling ring with all of your best friends with Reginald Spiers!!

#328 - Gangs, Guns, Patriots & Prison - The Truculentness of Aaron Hernandez Nov 02, 2022

Show notes

This week, we look at one of the violent, aggressive, and disturbing individuals, to ever enter the NFL. And that's saying something. From his early, and ongoing gang ties, to the fact that he was pretty sure he could get away with anything. He almost did get away with anything, until the bullets started flying. His best friend accused him of shooting this friend in the eye, and he was tried for 3 different murders! His prison life was just as crazy, with fights, attacks, and eventually ending it all, in a horrific way, and leaving a few notes behind!

Be too crazy for football, shoot your best friend over a minor disagreement, and be convicted for the murder of another friend, while being tried for two more murders with Aaron Hernandez!!

#327 - Popeye, Superman, Or The Devil - The Unmanageableness of "Fast" Eddie Rothman Oct 25, 2022

Show notes

This week, we catch a huge wave... of crime, with a legend of the North Shore surf scene. He has had a lot to do with tournaments, and competitions, all around the islands, but he is best known for starting what could have definitely been called a gang, consisting of local surfers, using threats & physical force to keep the waves all to the locals. The group was also accused of being a crime ring, complete with drug trafficking, and the violence to back up those activities. A gruff, tough guy, with a dark past, and one of the most harrowing childhoods ever!!

Be at home on the waves, fight to keep tourists off of those waves, and beat several local, state, and federal charges, for drugs to violence with "Fast" Eddie Rothman!!

#326 - The Most Dangerous Man In The Mafia - The Mercilessness of Joe "The Animal" Barboza Oct 19, 2022

Show notes

This week, we look at a man who was born into terrible circumstances, and only made them worse. He had a brief boxing career, but this story is all about crime, murder, mayhem, and a man who will bite your face off! He was a loanshark, bookie, and general all around New England mob associate, who spread out into murder with such ferocity that the head of the FBI called him the most dangerous man in the United States. As you might imagine, this story doesn't end well for anyone, and it ends exactly the way the rest of the story was... violently!

Follow in your father's footsteps of being a violent lunatic, scare everyone from mobsters, to cops, to prison officials, and have 26 murders under your belt with Joe "The Animal" Barboza!!

#325 - Too Many Accusations, Not Enough Jail - The Slipperiness of "Jungle" Jim Rivera Oct 11, 2022

Show notes

This week, we go back in time to look at man man who grew up in an orphanage, during The Great Depression! He turned to street gangs, boxing & baseball, but WWII came calling before he could become a pro at anything. While in the Army, he was boxing champion, and convicted rapist, sentenced to life in military prison, but he gets another shot at the outside world, because he happens to be the star of the prison baseball team. A major league career, brings him some World Series glory, a cool nickname, and more sexually deviant charges. Even retirement, and old age doesn't stop more very awful charges from coming his way!!

Grow up in an orphanage, even though your father is still alive, get thrown in prison, rather than fighting Hitler, and always slip out of truly disgusting accusations with "Jungle" Jim Rivera!!

#324 - The Most Beloved Hated Man - The Impetuousness of Allen "The Answer" Iverson Oct 04, 2022

Show notes

This week, we bask in the long, successful, and insane life of a guy who was as good as it gets, on the basketball court, but a little shaky, off it. He is always fearless, and that fearlessness also translates to police, and court proceedings, Whether it's telling a police officer to go ahead, and take his Lamborghini, because he "has 10 more", or allegedly throwing his naked wife out of the house... multiple times. Or, maybe it's just running into his cousin's apartment, armed, and angry, threatening to "make an example" of someone. Whatever he does, it's a party. But not a party at Bally's Casino, because he urinated into a garbage can there, and isn't allowed back on the property!!

Be a two sport superstar, get sent to prison over a tenuous charge, and blow $150 million with Allen "The Answer" Iverson!!

#323 - Mature... Or Whatever - The Destructiveness of Aldon Smith Sep 28, 2022

Show notes

This week, we look at an NFL player, who burst onto the scene with force, becoming one of the best defensive prospects in a generation. And that's exactly what happened... For a little while, anyway. Then he started getting arrested. And kept getting arrested. Booze, violence, drugs, terrible driving, jumping from windows while holding a tequila bottle, and with possible blood, dripping from his mouth. He's become a bit of a menace, not only to himself, but anyone who accepts his wedding proposal, or comes to his house for a party. This story is loaded with crime!

Be the next Lawrence Taylor, drink two bottles of tequila & bite your fiancee, then keep making fools of NFL General Managers with Aldon Smith!!
