Tiger Woods lit the golf world on fire in the mid 90’s and his meteoric rise to the top of golf was something the sport hadn’t seen before.  He brought a completely new audience to the game and kickstarted a renaissance that golf is still reaping the benefits of today.  He maintained a squeaky-clean public image, until that all came crashing down in one of the most publicized, extra-marital affair...

If you don’t recognize the name, don’t let that deter you from listening to this episode.  If you do recognize the name, you’ll definitely understand why he’s in the courtroom today.  David Duke was an influencer before the internet, and the brand that he was promoting and platform he was trying to gain followers on, is not what the world needed (or needs).   Duke tried his best to bring the KKK f...

The world we live in now is much different than the one we all knew 30 years ago, all thanks to the internet.  The number of ways to make a living online these days is astounding, but the subject of this show made his mark long ago and seems determined to dominate YouTube.  Jimmy “MrBeast” Donaldson started out a young age, but quicky figured out the right way to captivate audiences and use the Yo...

There are some celebrities that seem to stay in front of viewers and listeners for decades.  For many, you understand why that person remains relevant, and others, we’re often left saying, “how did they get this gig again”.  Enter the subject of this episode, Nick Cannon.  Nick hit the music scene long ago but branched out quickly to expand his brand.  Between marrying Mariah Carey and fathering e...

Rockstars seem to find ways to hit headlines in some of the wildest ways. The bands of the 80’s seemed to really take things to the next level, and one of the bands leading the way was Van Halen and their frontman, Eddie Van Halen.  Eddie’s incredible talent on the guitar made him a legend to anyone who was reading Guitar World in the 90’s, but as you could imagine there were wild times to go alon...

Everyone knows that the older a person gets, the more their verbal filter wears off.  But the filter of Katt Williams has always been Virginia Slim 120 light, and recently he’s just letting it all fly.  The accusations made against some of the biggest names in comedy had many of them reeling, but also quickly defending themselves.  How much truth is there behind the craziness Katt is speaking?  Ho...

So, the original idea for the show was going to be about another accused pedophile, and honestly, we just wanted to talk about something else. So what better topic to discuss with 40-something year-old white guys, than the history or diss tracks and rap battles? This show just isn't a revisit of Biggie vs. Tupac, it's breakdown of the history of the rap battle. Did you know the public, verbal "dis...

The British have seemed to corner the market for celebrity TV personalities that can be more or less classified, as pric*s.  We’ve already done a show on Gordon Ramsey, I’ve heard that the second-best Bond, Pierce Brosnan, can be a bit of a jerk, and today’ show subject has made a name for himself not only in the music business but with his snarky putdowns.  Simon Cowell was a star in the UK befor...

We’ve seen a few of our courtroom contestants meet their maker, as we all will one day, after we release the episode where they are the subject.  Just recently, OJ Simpson, passed away and lots of people made one final dig at The Juice.  Many would say it was well-deserved for what most view as him “getting off” for killing his ex-wife and her friend, but some still say that if the glove doesn’t f...

Once we got done with our Update Show a couple months ago, we thought we had done a good job of getting everyone caught up on some of shenanigans our subjects had gotten into since we did their show. And I mean, we couldn’t leave Steven Seagal sitting where he was in our final ratings. But then came the absolutely insane stories about Sean “P Diddy” Combs just weeks after our Update Show.  The sto...

Howard Stern has been at the top of the radio world for decades, making headlines with his crazy antics and intriguing interviews. His shows have remained at the top of the ratings, but as both he and his antics have aged, the show isn’t quite as insane as it once was.  And it was those older shows that made the headlines and Howard a pile of money in the meantime.  But how far is too far?  Has Ho...

Have you ever had a friend or someone you know recommend a movie that you’ve never heard of, and they “swear it’s unbelievable”, and it really is terrific?  What if someone told you that the coolest person that ever lived, passed away before America even became a country?  Many would say, “no chance”, but they may not have heard the story of John Law.  Law was like a 17-century gambler and economi...

“Men want to be him, and women want to be with him”, that line couldn’t have been more fitting for the show subject in this episode, Hugh Hefner.  Hugh was a pioneer in the porno world and his creation, Playboy, was the introduction of naked women to many in the American public.  Hugh lived the life that many only dream of, and it seems as though all the stories have a ring of truth to them, both...

In the 4+ years we've been discussing the many subjects in our courtroom, it's very much come to our attention that some of our older scores may not align with where we are now. How we got to some of the earlier scores, we can't really explain, but we'll chalk it up to alcohol and inexperience. But we're here to make it right! In this episode, we are going to dive into updates on a number of peopl...

If you are a celebrity, I would imagine the goal for your career would be to ride out your prime years and then gracefully age out into Hollywood history.  There may be some bumps along the way, but if you can avoid that big blowup, it should be smooth sailing.  And then there are those that don’t quite have that made-for-tv ending.  Paul Reubens, aka Pee Wee Herman, was killing it career-wise whe...

Some of the subjects in our courtroom may require a little jog of the memory when you first hear of the person, others not so much.  And unless you’ve been living under a rock or in a coma for the last 10 years, Taylor Swift is a name you probably have heard much about, regardless of your taste in music.  The hardworking star has been topping the charts for about a decade, and probably the most re...

When you think of the “mastermind” behind successful things, you usually find someone with a high level of education, decent business sense, and most importantly, a good idea.  Al Capone ran the largest organized crime ring in Chicago in the 20’s with the education of a 6th grader, a penchant for violence, and an idea that’s been tried many times.  But there is something to be said about being in...

“Back in my day…” is a phrase we are staring to hear more and more as the advancement of society continues to move forward at breakneck speed.  Hearing stories of the “old days” when times were more simple and stresses were different, brings many folks back to the friendly days of childhood.  The phrase “times were different then” seem to be a common mask nowadays for culturally inappropriate beha...

It’s always sad when the world loses someone too soon, and the music world seems to lose people at the age of 27 in a freakishly odd rate. Many of these talents were generation and changed the landscape of the current time and this show’s subject is no exception.  Kurt Cobain was seemingly at the top of the world when the stress and fame seemed to unravel his life.  There are many conspiracies aro...

You’ve got to be dedicated to make the decision to go off the grid.  The reasons people go off the grid differ, most are pretty insane, but some are just looking for a place to hide. The subject of today’s show, Ted Kaczynski - The Unabomber, was a mixture of both.  The Unabomber’s randomness of targets and timing had America on edge and had Kaczynski at the top of the FBI’s Most Wanted list.  The...

The evolution of TV and media is moving rapidly and the number of viewing options we’ve got these days is just insane.  We’ve seen things change over time, some for bad, some for good, but the invention of trash TV is one thing that appears here to stay.  One of the figures that is on the Mt. Rushmore of trash TV, and the subject of today’s show, made paternity tests fun again and finally hung it...

There are many iconic images that stick with people over time, and the DeLorean DMC-12 whizzing through town to take Marty McFly Back to the Future is definitely one of those.  We didn’t see too much of the DeLorean automobile in general.  Why is that?  Who the heck is DeLorean anyway?  John DeLorean made his way through the automotive industry, gaining acclaim for his work at GM.  Once he went ou...

The title of “King” has been around awhile, and as time goes on, it seems to have definitely lost its luster.  Being the King of Rock and Roll, or the King of Pop, those seemed to have stuck.  But in the age of social media the desire to have followers and likes, it feels like the “King” title is getting thrown around a little loosely to gain attention.  Enter this show’s subject, The Liver King....

On this show, a person’s score is bound to be high when their image is what an entire generation of people think of when they hear the phrase, “bad guy”.  Saddam Hussein cemented his status in history as one of these bag guys, with his ruthless dictatorship of Iraq, including the murder and torture of many of his own people.  He made the mortal mistake of pushing the limit one too many times, and...

If you ask a small child what they want to be when they grow up, odds are you will get the answer from some, “the richest person in the world”.  Well, there can only be one of those people at any given time and the subject of today’s show is not only chart-topping rich, but he’s also changed the way the world buys things.  Jeff Bezos started Amazon from a garage in Seattle and has transformed it i...
