On this week's episode we have super heavy weight bodybuilder Connor Magee. During covid, Connor had a horrific accident when re-racking the bar of the smith machine. He broke his both ankles, shin bones and ruptured both knees. He spent time in a wheelchair, but his drive to lift and compete again kept him going. He's since bounced back, and will be competing in the Irish Nationals and in Sweden later in the year. I found his mentality, and his road to redemption story to be so incredibly inspiring, and I believe you will too.

We go deep on this one; His outlaw parents, impoverished youth, the golden glove medals, gunshot wounds, making music, DMT, and so much more. This is a fascinating episode, and remembered, if you're liking the podcast, please subscribe, rate, follow, and share it with others. Kail has lived an almost filimic life; full of highs and lows, strange characters and, finally, redemption. When he was a child his father ran out on him and his mother went to prison. He was raised by his grandfather. He came to know James Brown as a child as Brown was incarcerated in the same prison as his mother. They used to sing in the prison church. He learned guitar from a Haitian refugee in his hometown. He was a golden glove boxer who missed out on the Olympics due to a brush with the law. Both his parents died from drug overdoses and he made money digging graves at the local cemetery. He headed to LA with nothing but the shirt on his back and his guitar, living in an RV for two years whilst saving to record his first record. That record, ‘Heat Stroke / The Wind and The War' was nominated for album of the year by NPR.Kail's IG - https://www.instagram.com/kail_baxley/Kail's Music - https://open.spotify.com/artist/3fV14PAU0MWFaj0Kt8MDWx?si=OcGbHJS9SF6O8OGzcF3OBwDark Finds IG - https://www.instagram.com/dark.finds/Dark Finds Podcast IG - https://www.instagram.com/darkfindspodcast/Dark Finds YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCap737Yzv3XONh8GaARy5bwDark Finds TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@darkfindspageDark Finds book - https://www.amazon.com/Dark-Finds-Gary-Colton/dp/1805173634/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.6N0-FDOe6Y6ZwJ6J-Q3b3EGJhuWdAQhxQVQVrNcJ5eANal_GW9EPd1cHsnPY4q0ja4JBLEbVVqSmfU2GCHMQqLtdKsN060N6iR__zB5bkzd1hnf6dtWYuBrQEI995CDOH7d_SlBLFo_6w0gSFIXhmrgcl8Dg15lYoY5T_8PnTMillt6BGHRYQ65XNriQA_5ABwxP1WLNhicm0xIstJeTR27qEgKQIMofnWBaQ3GDXzw.o6RYip-cH-8ZxSnEBbt7AvM88EZXULqlSZ_TGcv1N_8&qid=1715675559&sr=1-1Support the podcast here - https://www.patreon.com/DarkFindsPodcast Hosted on Acast.
