150: Class Action Park Sep 22, 2020

Show notes

Here's the gist: During its 1980s and 1990s heyday, New Jersey’s Action Park earned a reputation as the most insane — and possibly the most dangerous — amusement park that ever existed.
It was known as a lawless land, ruled by drunk teenage employees and frequented by even drunker teenage guests. The rides were experimental and illogical, and seemed to ignore even the most basic notions of physics or common sense—not to mention safety.
Lying somewhere between Lord of the Flies and a Saw movie, Action Park is remembered as a place so insane and treacherous that, decades later, anybody who ever stepped foot in it is left wondering whether their memories could possibly be true. It became a nearly perfect breeding ground for urban legends and myths.

Rod "Blago" Blagojevich had a charmed path to the Governor's Mansion in Illinois: He married Patty Mell, the daughter of a powerful Democratic Alderman who helped him jump from state legislator to Governor in just 10 years. And then he F***ED it all up. When Obama (COME BACK, GIRL!) was elected President, and it was up to Blago to appoint a replacement, he went all over Chicago trying to SELL. THAT. SEAT. And the FBI has the tapes to prove it! OH OH OH!! And when he got caught and knew he was headed for trial, HE WENT ON THE CELEBRITY APPRENTICE to try to get too famous to send to jail. Thaaaaaaaaat didn't go as planned.
