    O.J. Simpson: Stolen Memorabilia, Armed Robbery, and Fake Gangsters

    O.J. Simpson: Stolen Memorabilia, Armed Robbery, and Fake Gangsters

    This is not the O.J. Simpson story you were expecting. This is the story of what happened after the former running back was acquitted of the murder of his ex-wife and her friend. It’s an insane story that involves sports memorabilia, ex-cons, a gun, a simple plan gone horribly wrong, and one of the most unbelievable armed robberies in Las Vegas’s sordid history.
    This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including domestic violence and graphic depictions of violence.

    REWIND - XXXTentacion: Mellow Beats and Ultra Violence

    REWIND - XXXTentacion: Mellow Beats and Ultra Violence

    XXXTentacion was one of Generation Z’s most talented hip hop stars but his ascent was marked by violence and drama; beatdowns, beefs (what’s up, Drake?) and abuse. XXXTentacion’s music quickly rose from Soundcloud to the top of the charts due in part to the relative loneliness and alienation he repped in his lyrics, sentiments his audience quickly latched onto. XXXTentacion’s connection to his audience was (and still is even in death) unique and powerful. Their connection via social media-fueled him, inspired him and ironically alienated him, just like his penchant for violence. What, if any of it, all led to his untimely demise?

    Jose Canseco: SWAT Teams, Smuggled Drugs, and 'Roid Rage

    Jose Canseco: SWAT Teams, Smuggled Drugs, and 'Roid Rage

    Jose Canseco was a big league slugger who gave the people what they wanted. Not just massive home runs and a whole lot of stolen bases. He provided entertainment. And his audience, not just baseball fans but the world, ate it up. The private encounter with Madonna in her apartment that nearly cost him a spot on the roster. The obsession with performance enhancing drugs that made him the self-proclaimed godfather of steroids. But entertaining quickly spun out of control. Car crashes. SWAT teams. Smuggled drugs. Before too long, Jose Canseco found himself blacklisted, behind bars, and the focal point of a congressional hearing.

    REWIND - Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes: Hit Me Again and I'll Burn Your House Down

    REWIND - Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes: Hit Me Again and I'll Burn Your House Down

    TLC’s Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes was known as “the crazy one.” She did, after all, burn down the mansion of her boyfriend, NFL player Andre Rison. But given the fact that it was done after one of many domestic assaults, Disgraceland sees Left Eye as a badass—and not “the crazy one.” This episode digs into what really happened that night, who Lisa Lopes really was as a person, and the details surrounding her own premature death.
