    #435 - Criminal, Or Crazy Person? - Everson Griffen
    Nov 19 2024

    This week, we check out a Pro Bowl NFL player, who had so many physical tools, that he was nicknamed "The Freak", but things tended to fall apart in the brain area. He was always a bit wild, but they truly spiral out of control, by the time he's shirtless, and hiding in the bushes, after trying to break into a teammate's house because "God told him to"! Mental illness? Drugs? Too many blows to the head? All of the above???


    Be life of a Nantucket blow out party that old people hate, try to break into a teammate's house because "God told you to", and drive like you're legally blind with Everson Griffen!!


    Check us out, every Tuesday!


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

    This week, we find out all there is to know about a Portuguese soccer player, who hardly has any time for sports, because he spends most of his time getting arrested, and hanging out in jail. He beat the odds, coming from tough neighborhood, but he seems to take some of the neighborhood with him as he threatens, beats, robs, kidnaps, tortures, and allegedly rapes his to way to what may be a short career!!


    Make soccer your way to rise out of your circumstances, react extremely disproportionately to even the smallest slight, and be banned from an entire country with Ruben Semedo!!

    #433 - Boobs Out, Guns Down - Keith Appling
    Nov 5 2024

    This week, we look into a man who barely played in the NBA, but spent plenty of time upping his crime stats. From a very nasty allegation, from the first day of college, to a slew of charges, that become more fast & frequent. For one thing, he can't seem to go anywhere without a loaded weapon. He also feels that heroin is the way to go, for his post sports career & he tops the whole thing off with a cold blooded murder!!


    Be the best at your sport, in your entire state, dodge a rape allegation, that seems extremely true, and murder your uncle on the fron t lawn with Keith Appling!!

Entertaining even for non-sports-lovers

Excellent research, funny hosts, insane sportspeople who don't seem to think the law applies to them. Highly entertaining.

You’ll never be sorry you listened

Without a doubt the greatest podcast in the history of podcasts and if you disagree then, you sir may fuck off. Get to know about the crimes your favourite athletes have committed and even better the crazy stories of people you’ve never heard of, all with a funny twist. James and Jimmie have got podcasting down to a fine art and nothing is better than the original!!

The best way to learn nothing about sport!

Thought I’d listen to this to learn about US sports, haven’t learnt a thing but I’ve listened to every episode!

Favourite and go to podcast.

This is my favourite podcast, although I enjoy both Small town murder and Crime in sports, I enjoy the sports stories very much especially the wrestling ones.

Exactly What it Says

Hilariously funny, brilliantly researched, incredibly informative, and just fantastic. Sit back, listen to these comedians skip merrily through the daffodils of a sports personality's life, and try not to laugh too hard as said personality self-destructs in spectacular fashion right at the peak of their success.
Interest in sports absolutely not required, in fact it's just as funny if you are completely uninterested in sports. Almost as though it's about watching someone climb the heights of success only to throw themselves off, and not about the sports at all.
