This week, we slam our way into the new year with a wrestler, who almost made it to the top, but his personality set him back.

#388 - The Innovator Of Crime - Lewis Billups 19.12.2023

This week, we find out about a man, who always looked for the spotlight, and found it, in the NFL. He never liked to do what everyone else was doing, and that showed, when he was arrested for everything from pulling a gun on 2 cops, to beating a woman into a puddle, threatening Rex Chapman, participating in a team gang rape, and videotaping a horrible crime, that he committed, then trying to extor...

#387 - Frozen Toes & Industrial Hose - Luther Wright 13.12.2023

This week, we talk about a gentle giant, with a real liking of crack, and living in the streets. A first round NBA draft pick, who was in the streets, less than 10 years later. He went from a promising prospect, to screaming, bare chested during Utah winter, bashing in car windows, and swinging a prosthetic leg over his head. It only gets worse from there! Be so large that you don't have work very...

#386 - Disgusting, Horrific & Not Sorry - Chris Nelloms 05.12.2023

This week, we tell a terrible story. He overcame odds, and being a victim of "random" violence, to end up being one of the best sprinters that the United States could produce. Then, he repeatedly committed horrifying acts that set him up to possibly spend forever in prison. He doesn't admit it, even though it's obviously true, and that's what will make you hate him, even more! Set records for your...

#385 - The Real Housewives Of Drunk In Court - Matt Keough 28.11.2023

This week, we follow the life of a man, with many ups and downs. He was a rookie all star, and "Comeback Player of the Year", within 3 years.

Was a baseball to the head, requiring brain surgery what turned him into a man, who was so out of control that he showed up drunk t...

A member of the Super Bowl champion 1985 Chicago Bears defense, and "Super Bowl Shuffle" soloist, who quickly lost his career, and had his life unravel, and crash. He was arrested over 20 times. Many of those for selling/smoking crack, and other embarrassing issues. Just when it looks like it can'...

#383 - Dirty System, Dirty Country, Dirty People - Cedric "Spiderman" Marks - Part 2 14.11.2023

This week, we jump back into the story, with Cedric, being captured in a garbage can. From there, he taken to trial for a double murder, and is up for the death penalty. He makes the obviously bright choice of representing himself, and making the entire trial into complete circus! The details of the murders are just awful, and we find out that they may not be the only people he's killed!! Climb ou...

#382 - The Escalation Of A Psychopath - Cedric "Spiderman" Marks - Part 1 07.11.2023

This week, we look at a man who has done nothing, but fight. In the MMA octagon, or on the street, in his home... it doesn't matter. He's in prison, before he ever even starts his very mediocre fighting career. In this first part, he fights non fighters, his girlfriend has disappeared, he is wanted for a double murder, and he's hiding in a garbage can! Wall to wall crazy!! Be sentenced to prison b...

#381 - Too Drunk For Scotland - Scott "The Real McCoy" Harrison 31.10.2023

This week, we look at a boxer, with a familiar nickname, who came from a long line of boxers. His hard nosed style brought him all the way to championships, but seemingly overnight, everything changed. His drinking got out of control, and he seemed to punch everyone he met. This includes everyone from cops, to grocery store employees, to several people at a brothel, and many, many more. This makes...

#380 - A Confident, Conniving, Opportunist - Jack Molinas 24.10.2023

This week, we check out a guy who had one crazy life. He was a college basketball star, who got kicked out of the NBA, and became a lawyer. Then, after a prison term for running a gambling syndicate, with several well known mobsters, he does what every basketball player/lawyer/ex con does... he produces porn. In the end, the whole thing is a murder mystery, with the mafia looking like the culprits...

#379 - Big Mouth, Bigger Bankruptcy - Warren Sapp 17.10.2023

This week, we look at a man, who accomplished it all in the world of the NFL. He's a Super Bowl champ, defensive player of the year, and hall of famer. He also talked his way to being hated by a large percentage of fans, while taking some cheap shots, on the field. He also seems to be a little rough with the ladies, and apparently likes to renegotiate with escorts, which makes sense, since he some...

#378 - Olympian, Minister, Kid Toucher - Doug Northway 10.10.2023

This week, we look at a man, who appeared to have it all together. An Olympic medalist, who went on to somehow make some money in professional swimming.

What would cause his family to flee to New Zealand, to not b...

#377 - Feeling Pretty Good - Bernard Gilkey & A "Pacman" Jones Arrest Update!! 03.10.2023

This week, we check out a man who turned his back on basketball, and made it all the way to Major League Baseball.

He also got one of the craziest deferred contracts of all time!! Plus, an Adam "Pacman" Jones arrest upda...

#376 - Bumps, Brain Damage & Brutality - "Rockin' Rebel" Charles Williams 26.09.2023

This week, we look at an original member of the ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling) crew, who never quite broke through to the level that he wanted. He continued to wrestle on the independent circuit, until committing one of the worst acts anybody could commit. Apparent brain damage, mixed with a short temper, and penchant for manipulation all seemed to come together to make this guy a human nigh...

#374 - Delusions Of Competence - Bernard Randolph 19.09.2023

This week, we check out the exploits of a man, who grew up around a few other players, who also had interesting stories. His childhood was filled with tragedy, and it just kept coming, with his adult life. Laziness, delusions of greatness, strange behavior, and probable brain damage cause this potential star to circle the drain!! Have everyone around you drop dead, watch your pal be drafted number...

#373 - The Crack Smoking Waterboy - "Beautiful" Harvey Martin 12.09.2023

This week, we scope out the swinging 70s, through a key member of the "Doomsday Defense" of the Dallas Cowboys. Living the high life of fame, and fortune, all while business ventures fall apart, and he does enough cocaine to cover a South American mountain top. Even though he denies it for years, he eventually tells his secrets, after his life truly spins out of control!! Have your sister beat up...

#372 - A Dirty Old Man - Gene "The Snowman" Snow - Plus Aqib Talib & Sunny Updates!! 05.09.2023

This week, we look at a man who broke records for speed, and innovated ways to go faster, by helping invent engine components. He is one of the most respected drag racers in history. He also apparently liked the company of young boys. A little too much. He was repeatedly arrested for awful things, and let go with slaps on the wrist. The things he has been accused of as bad as they could be, but he...

#371 - A Dangerous Sexual Predator - Davey Hilton Jr 29.08.2023

This week, we fight our way through the story of a man, who came from at least 4 generations of boxers, who all seem to to have problems, outside of the ring. Between him, and his brothers, it's an avalanche of crime, and legal proceedings. But our guy has them all beat by committing one of the most hideous crimes, ever. He may seriously be the worst person we've ever covered! Start boxing at age...

#370 - Diamond Dick & The Whackstick - "Turkey" Mike Donlin 22.08.2023

This week, we go back in time to look into a man who was born in 1878! He played for the St Louis Cardinals, before they were called that. Famous for his strut, cockiness, and crazy things he did while drinking. Things like punching showgirls, and pulling guns on train conductors. He transitioned from baseball, into a film career that had him in some pretty wild circumstances. A wild guy, living a...

#369 - Everybody's Rival - Bill Romanowski 15.08.2023

This week, we cover a man who seemingly no one likes. He's the type of guy who you only like, if he plays for your team, but not necessarily if you play on his team. He attacked teammates, ended careers, took cheap shots, all while playing at a high level, and earning 4 rings, and causing a state & federal drug probe. Turns out, he may have had some chemical help with his accomplishments, but that...
