2026/04/14
This week, we talk about a Brazilian soccer star, who ends up accused of one of the worst, most despicable things that human being could possibly be capable of. He came from a dirt poor neighborhood, never even thinking he could be a star. But he ends up famous, reasonably wealthy, and always looking for new women, despite being a married man. He impregnates an aspiring model, who had a 4 year run in porn, but he denies the baby isn't his. This woman disappears. Last seen heading to Bruno's farm. A surprise witness comes forward, and blows the case wide open!!   Grow up in the favella, wanting to get out, use your soccer skills to make a much better life for you, and your family, and have the entire Brazilian police force hunt for you on kidnapping & possible murder charges with Bruno Fernandes De Souza - Part 1!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Silence Of The Russian Lambs- Alex Galchenyuk
2026/04/07
This week, we discuss a man who followed in his father's footsteps into the world of hockey, becoming a prospect, who seemed to be the future of whatever lucky team ended up with him. But there were problems, not only with his on ice production, but with his immaturity. There was a domestic incident that he was quite embarrassed about, there was his alleged substance use, which sent rumors flying around the league, and finally, a wild incident, where he threatens to dismember police officers in a very creative way, even making up a new dish!!   Follow in your Belarusian father's hockey footsteps, have a thick Russian accent, even though you were born in Wisconsin, and come up with a whole new recipe, that includes parts of police officer's body with Alex Galchenyuk!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

The Gangster Golfer - Ryan Peake
2026/03/31
This week, we discuss an Aussie golfer, who had a very strange path to both golf, and crime. He grew up as a natural talent, but lacked some of the work ethic needed to become a star as a pro. So, he joined a criminally prominent biker gang, put the golf clubs aside. This continues until a very violent incident lands him in a terribly kept prison. Somehow, he turns it all around, and tries to continue in his golf journey. Will he stay out of trouble, and live up to his potential???   Have a naturally powerful left handed golf swing, hang out the local biker gang, until you become a full fledged member, then try to be the probably the only pro golfer with gang tats with Ryan Peake!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

A Most Diabolical Murder Plot - Felix "El Diamante" Verdejo
2026/03/24
This week, we talk about a boxer, who seemed to have unlimited potential. He was supposed to be the savior of his weight class & he wanted to bring his people together. Unfortunately for him, he did bring his people together, but they came together with hatred for him, after he is convicted of one of the most gutless, and horrific murders that a person could imagine. The sheer brutality of it, and the innocence of the victim make him eligible for the death penalty!   Become the guy who is supposed to be the next big champion at your weight, stupidly ride your motorcycle in a dangerous way, and almost kill yourself, and commit a murder so horrible that even the other prisoners want a piece of you with Felix "El Diamante" Verdejo!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Drink Away The Debt - Adrian Peterson - Part 3
2026/03/17
This week, we finish up with Adrian, as he is starting to get a little bit too old to be an effective running back, but he's just the right age to go into massive amounts of debt, and get arrested, about once a year. He drives poorly while drinking, causes a delay on an LA to Houston flight, after he has to be removed from the plane, and is charged with domestic violence. He also still claims to hit his kids with a belt, and is in so much debt, that interest alone is thousands of dollars, every day! Will he get it together, or is this his future???   Pile 4 more people into your car, after you've been drinking, open up a gym, when you're millions of dollars in debt, and make sure that everyone knows that you still hit your kids with Adrian Peterson - Part 3!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

The Child Whooping Paradox - Adrian Peterson - Part 2
2026/03/10
This week, we check back in with Adrian, as he recovers from losing a son. He also quickly gets in trouble for a "whooping" that he put on his 4 year old son. He tries to say that beatings are what made him the man he became, but this beating seems to go beyond the norms, even for Texas, even though plenty of people say that he did nothing wrong. Pictures of the injuries horrify both a judge, and the NFL commissioner, and there are consequences in both of those arenas. But will the punishment fit the crime?    Tell everyone that Jesus got you through the loss of your young son, as soon as you're done grieving one son, get in trouble for abusing another son, and make sure to never have a bit of remorse with Adrian Peterson - Part 2!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Dead Player Battleship - Adrian Peterson - Part 1
2026/03/03
This week, we celebrate episode 500!! We look at one of the greatest players to ever play his position, in NFL history. He has countless accolades, to attest to his football prowess. Only problem is, he also had quite the prowess for ending up in handcuffs. We start with his difficult, and sometimes tragic childhood, only to see him overcome these things. He also seems to believe that he's possibly above the law, which will make for crazy times!!   Choose a location, so you can play "Dead Player Battleship", featuring horrible quarterbacks, realize that seeing your brother be killed, in front of you, would mess anyone up, and decide to  NEVER hit a child, especially if it isn't even yours with Adrian Peterson - Part 1!!

Cocaine In My Shoes, Needles In My Veins - Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 2
2026/02/17
This week, we finish up this wild story with Steve, getting back into the NHL, only to barely play, and end up unemployed. He fills in this employment gap by going down to Bolivia, and trying to smuggle cocaine into Canada, with a wild & fun excuse. He does his prison time, only to get back into drugs, and end up in more trouble, including running an "escort service" that definitely wasn't legal. All of this, and his sad, pitiful ending!   Keep telling NHL teams that you're ready to stop getting in trouble, tell a judge that you didn't know there was a lot of cocaine, in your shoes, and destroy your body with drugs with Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 2!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Bald & Belligerent - Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 1
2026/02/10
This week, we look at a hockey player, who was a little too violent & short tempered, even for hockey. He never had a goal, other than playing hockey, and he achieved that by being drafted in the 1st round. But the only potential he ever lived up to was his potential for violence. He attacked opposing players, fans, coaches, trianers, timekeepers, and even the police! This temper leads to obvious arrests, and a big future of crime, ahead of him!!   Be terrified of your overinvolved father... until you beat him up, use your hockey stick as just an extension of your hand & hit people with it, and tell everyone that you're on your best behavior, then try to start a riot with Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 1!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

On Top Of Creep Mountain - Charles Barrett
2026/02/03
This week, we look at an absolutely horrible human being, who competed in a sport that we've never talked about! Rock climbing! He was an idol of other climbers, as he made his own routes up mountains, and published several books about climbing. But under the surface, there was a violent sexual predator. He beat women, then threatened them if they dared report it. He sexually attacked women, and stalked them into hiding. He may have even assaulted dozens more, while climbing. Did he get what he deserved??   Compete in a sport, where getting stoned before participating in it seems standard, turn into a different, violent person, with just a pause, and be the menace of an entire region's women with Charles Barrett!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Not Consensual - Jim Krakouer
2026/01/27
This week, we look at an Autralian football player, who came from hard times, and only made things worse for himself. He was an aggressive player, at a time when it was perfectly acceptable to hurl racial slurs upon a field of play. But none of that holds an answer to why he did the things he did. From a youthful conviction, for a reprehensible crime, to having an ongoing sexual "relationship" with a 14 year old girl, to having enough meth to keep all of Australia hyper, he couldn't have gone more wrong!   Be on a football team with your brother, claim your sexual relationship with a 14 year old was "consensual", and never take a bit of responsibility for anything with Jim Krakouer!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Don't Care About No Drugs - Daniel Straus
2026/01/20
This week, we look at an MMA fighter, who had it rough & practically raised himself. He was a champion wrestler in high school, but didn't start his MMA career, until after a stint in prison. He also had a stint at Steak & Shake, making getting punched in the face sound like a good option. His career was decent, but he could never get out from under his legal problems. From robbery, to drug charges, to terrible driving, and a horrific alleged attack on his ex-girlfriend, he's a bit of a mess!!   Fight your way out of Steak & Shake, be thrown from a moving motorcycle & almost killed, and make sure to blame anybody but yourself for your problems with Danny Straus!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

The Staircase Romantic - Wayne "Big Money" Simmons - Part 2
2026/01/13
This week, we finish off this story with Wayne, starting his NFL career, but it doesn't work out quite like he wanted. He's shuffled around the league, even picking up a Super Bowl ring, but always seems to do something to get him on the wrong side of his team, and the law. Most of his legal problems happen at 3 AM. This includes bad driving, a lot of punching, and a horrible accusation, from a young lady, on her graduation night. It all ends with a giant bang, as Wayne's 3 AM problems eventually get the best of him!!   Entertain your teammates, while annoying your coaches, earn a Super Bowl ring, and be accused of a horrible crime, while claiming the whole thing was consenual with Wayne Simmons - Part 2!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

His Own Worst Enemy - Wayne Simmons - Part 1
2026/01/06
This week, we we start a two parter on a man who came from absolutely nothing, watching his mother cry, because she couldn't provide. This gives him the motivation to work hard enough to be drafted in the NFL, by the Green Bay Packers, but also the motivation to apparently be a huge, violent jerk. He attacks exchange student pizza delivery men, bouncers, people trying to stop him from fighting, and a college girl! And thats's only the beginning. Will he get it together, ort go further downhill?   Have a want to make your mother stop crying, have no idea who any of your teammates are, and beat up peop,e who are much smaller than you with Wayne Simmons - Part 1!   Check us out, every Tuesday!
