    Ep 58: OJ Simpson Flees The Crime Scene! 

    On the night of June 12, 1994, OJ Simpson, in his white Bronco with his lights off, was frantically speeding away from the scene of the crime. At that exact same moment,  single mom Jill Shively was trying to get to a restaurant before it closed. Their paths crossed on San Vicente Blvd in Brentwood blocks from Nicole Brown Simpson's condo.  Simpson almost wipes out Jill's Volkswagen Bug and barks at her to move. Thinking an intoxicated former NFL star had almost sideswiped her, Jill calls the LAPD and sets off a series of events too incredible to be made up. 

    What happened in those moments, days, and weeks after this improbable encounter is discussed in dramatic detail, leaving you on the edge of your seat. Why was Jill Shively never called to testify in the Trial of the Century? What happened to her life in the past 30 years? 

    Tom Zenner and Kato Kaelin guide you through a scintillating, chilling, and phenomenal one-hour conversation with Jill sitting in the studio with them that True Crime fans will be hanging on every single word. It's a hot new One Degree of Scandalous episode with Tom Zenner and Kato Kaelin.

    Ep 53: Famous but fraudulent surgeon Paolo Macchiarini's lab-made plastic trachea is a diagnosis of death.

    Paolo Macchiarini became world famous as a charismatic Italian surgeon who developed an artificial trachea made out of plastic and soaked in stem cells that he claimed would give patients a new lease on life. Instead, it killed them in a horrific fashion. Along the way, he conned women into falling in love with him and had four separate families scattered all over the world. The woman that brought him down is Benita Alexander, an accomplished journalist and the star of the Netflix docuseries called "Bad Surgeon," and another documentary called "He Lied About Everything." Is Macchiarini in prison? Are there more secrets out there? Watch this episode and go back to watch Benita's earlier appearance on the podcast as well. You will not believe how narcissistic and evil this former winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine was. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGfAUK9V6UM.

Tone it down a bit

Interesting topics, but Tom needs to lay off the caffeine before the show. He's loud and intrusive. Please Tom, just take it down a notch.
