286: Who Killed Jam Master Jay? Feb 21, 2023

Show notes

As the DJ behind the iconic group RUN DMC, Jam Master Jay was a genius, a trailblazer, and for the people of Hollis, Queens, a hometown hero who never forgot where he came from. So how is it possible that when he was gunned down in his own recording studio--with four witnesses present--nobody saw a thing and, more than twenty years later, his murder is still unsolved. The answer is less complicated than you'd think.

285: The Real Bling Ring: Part 2 Feb 14, 2023

Show notes

Listen, in part 2, celebrities like Orlando Bloom are here to kick some freaking ass...so that's awesome.
Not to blame the victims here, but WHY DON'T CELEBRITIES LOCK THEIR DOORS? Anyway, meet Nick and Rachel, two bored, celebrity obsessed, high schoolers who decide it would be cool to break into the homes of celebrities like Paris Hilton, ORLANDO BLOOM, and Rachel Bilsion TO GO SHOPPING IN THEIR CLOSETS. They become self described "sexy bandits" as they steal from the rich and famous who, SOMEHOW, seem not to notice. MUST BE NICE. What will it take to bring these idiots down? And what kind of price will they even have to pay?
