  • #459 - Unlawful Carnal Consistency - Kendal "Tiny" Pinder
    May 6 2025

    This week, we look at a man who was born in The Bahamas, went to college in the US, and played basketball, all over the world, before finally settling into Australia, as his home. The problem is, sexual assaults, and attacks on women follow him, wherever he goes. He is repeatedly caught, for the same exact things, for decades, and always ends up back out on the street. Even when he's a little older, he's still at it. Will Australia ever put him away for good??


    Fall through a window, causing you to have the brain of a child, seemingly try to assault every woman on the continent of Australia, and try to unravel the mess that is Kendal "Tiny" Pinder!!


    Check us out, every Tuesday!


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

  • #458 - Busted, Disgusted & Can't Be Trusted - Evel Knievel - Part 10
    Apr 29 2025

    This week, we finish up our epic Evel Knievel series with the IRS breathing down Evel's neck. He decides that he's an artist, painting pictures, but that's not exactly the truth. He tries to rule his son's career "with an iron fist". He also owes someone $100 million dollars, and he needs a new liver. He also has a new, VERY young wife, and a string of arrests, for everything from domestic battery, to gun violations. Finally, the death on an icon!!


    Find yourself a wife who is less than half your age, pretend to paint, as some sort of new career, and get a new liver from someone who died in the most ironic way possible with Evel Knievel - Part 10!!

  • #457 - Down To His Last Yacht - Evel Knievel - Part 9
    Apr 15 2025

    This week, Evel is in hot water, after beating a Fox executive with a baseball bat. He is sentenced to jail, but like Evel always does, he figures out a way to make it a spectacle, and a show. How does he do that? By renting limos for all the prisoners, and causing a major traffic jam, while angering everyone in the jail system. He also claims he's going to jump out of a plane, with no parachute, and that he's near broke, and "down to his last yacht"!!


    Check yourself into jail, get out out of jail on work furlough & spend your days, drinking, in Beverly Hills, and tell everyone that you're going to jump from 40,000 feet with no parachute with Evel Knievel - Part 9!!

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.
