    The Corpse Was Driving - Ricco "Suave" Rodriguez

    The Corpse Was Driving - Ricco "Suave" Rodriguez

    This week, we find out about a former UFC heavyweight champion, who let it all go downhill. He gained too much weight, did too much cocaine, and got a little full of himself. This lands him on the "Celebrity Rehab" show, but those lessons don't seem to stick. He readily admits to one of the most repulsive, uncaring things we've ever heard anyone do. Plus, he seems to like to drink, before driving, and before fighting cab drivers!




    Learn how to fight, so you can stop having to fight, all the time, hit the pinnacle of your profession, right before you throw it all away, and pull what you think is a corpse into the driver's seat, to save you from a DUI with Ricco "Suave" Rodriguez!!




    Check us out, every Tuesday!




    We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!

    Crashing Your Life - Hector Barbera

    Crashing Your Life - Hector Barbera

    This week, we check out a seemingly crazy guy, in a VERY crazy sport. This man races motorcycles at almost 200 MPH, and has the scars, steel plates & screws in his body, to prove it! Off the track, he beats up his girlfriend, sending her to jail, too. He also can't stop drinking while driving without a license, and finally begins his apparent next career as a thief, and fraudster!



    Come from Spain, all the way to Kentucky, follow your mom into the world of motorcycle racing, and do crazier things, in your everyday life than racing a motorcycle with Hector Barbera!!

    Lousy Driver, Honest Man - Dale Ellis

    Lousy Driver, Honest Man - Dale Ellis

    This week, we find out about a seemingly mild mannered, and upstanding NBA 3 point specialist. He was raised with military precision, and won't allow his emotions to overtake him. Even when he's 9, and his father dies. He does let his emotions take over, at least a couple times, when he's arrested for hitting his wife, in addition to being one of the worst drivers that has ever gotten behind the wheel. Plus, his middle name is one for the books!!




    Don't shed a tear, as a 9 year old, with a dead dad, tell people that you'e better than Michael Jordan, in the late 80s, and drive your car across several lanes of freeway, while insisting you're not drunk with Dale Ellis!!

    The Prolific Procreator - Travis Henry

    The Prolific Procreator - Travis Henry

    This week, we tell the wild tale of an NFL player, who couldn't get out of his own way. He did one thing well, and that's impregnating women. Even in the world of sports, his child output numbers are remarkable. Once he's suspended from football, he turns to another business to try to pay all that child support... Being a cocaine kingpin! But that also doesn't work out so well, and here he is, on this show!!




    Make Shawn Kemp jealous of your virility, tell everyone what a good dad you are, and threaten the lives of a man's family, over a coke deal gone awry with Travis Henry!!

    This week, we finish this crazy story with tales of getting Mickey Mantle stoned, having a woman stolen by Frank Sinatra, and being pushed out of baseball.

Plus, bar fights, and drunkenly crashing a car in an NY tunnel!




    Get Mickey Mantle so stoned that he can barely swing a bat, Have Frank Sinatra swoop in on the woman you've been talking to, and never be dull, a moment in your life with Joe Pepitone!!

Nothing good happens after 2am

Such a great show. It’s amazing how many athletes ruin their lives after 2am.

Not really into sports but I’m into this podcast

I’m decidedly not a sports fan. In fact I hate most sports. Which is exactly why I love this podcast. I got into this podcast because of Small Town Murder. They kept plugging this podcast. I was initially skeptical because of my aforementioned dislike of sports but I decided to try it and I am really glad I did. I could use more laughter and these two provide it in spades. PS, I love love love Shwarma Man! I like Mexican Pimp but I love Shwarma Man! I wish you would call back French Racer too!

I don’t even like sports but this show is awesome!

I love all 3 of your shows. Never miss a single episode! Thanks for being amazing!
