Frank Lucas experiences a rough ride in the second half of the 1980s, and he hits rock bottom in the early 1990s. But when he is at his lowest point, one of his brothers throws him a lifeline. Frank finally leaves the heroin business, but he still struggles in the legitimate world… until he achieves worldwide fame as the subject of the Hollywood film “American Gangster,” though the movie stirs up nearly as much controversy as it does money at the box office.

Hard times arrive for Frank Lucas's heroin business. In the early 1970s, Harlem gangsters start dying, disappearing, or going to prison as a DEA-NYPD task force rounds up the leading players. Frank is forced to resort to desperate – and macabre – measures to keep his heroin pipeline intact. A rival gangster named Nicky Barnes asks Frank to join a Harlem syndicate called “The Council,” but Frank stays away even as his Thailand connections crumble.

After Bumpy Johnson dies, Frank Lucas travels to Bangkok, Thailand and sets up a powerful heroin operation. Frank's new gang, nicknamed the Country Boys, makes millions selling heroin in New York and New Jersey. Frank makes multiple trips to Thailand, and he claims he survives an ambush by gunmen in the jungle when he travels to the source of his heroin. As Frank's wealth and power grow, he shows off at the epic Muhammed Ali-Joe Frazier fight in 1971, and he soon regrets his decision to step into the spotlight.

Before Frank Lucas is a household name in Harlem, Ellsworth “Bumpy” Johnson runs the city. During the Prohibition and Depression eras, Bumpy rises through the ranks of Stephanie St. Clair's gang. Bumpy leads the gang in a war against Dutch Schultz's gang, but Bumpy needs the help of mob boss Lucky Luciano to win. When Bumpy becomes the Godfather of Harlem, he places his trust in a young man called Flash Walker. The decision costs Bumpy dearly.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Acceso anticipado para Fans - Hay películas que retratan el crimen. Y hay películas que cambian para siempre la forma de filmarlo. En este nuevo episodio de Criterio Cero nos sumergimos en The French Connection, el thriller seco, sucio y revolucionario que redefinió el cine policial en los años 70. Pero para entender la película… primero había que entender la realidad. En el programa viajamos al origen del caso real: La conexión marsellesa. El imperio de la heroína ligado a las mafias italianas. Su expansión en Nueva York y la posterior sucesión criminal en Harlem con figuras como Frank Lucas. Hablamos del entramado internacional de narcotráfico que inspiró la historia y del contexto social de una América marcada por la droga, la corrupción y la desconfianza institucional. Después nos adentramos en la película. Analizamos su producción al detalle: – Las complicadas y casi improbables contrataciones del reparto. – La elección de Hackman como Popeye Doyle cuando no era la opción obvia. – El estilo casi documental impuesto por Friedkin. Repasamos cómo se rodaron sus escenas más míticas: – La persecución bajo el tren elevado, filmada sin permisos completos y con riesgo real para peatones y conductores. – El uso de cámaras ocultas y luz natural. – Las decisiones técnicas que dieron al film su tono crudo e irrepetible. Y, por supuesto, desgranamos la película escena por escena, analizando: La obsesión de Popeye Doyle. La construcción del antagonista Alain Charnier. ️ La ciudad de Nueva York como personaje. ⚖️ El final anticlimático y su carga moral. Un estudio completo sobre un film que no glorifica al héroe, que no ofrece cierre cómodo y que convirtió la persecución en arte cinematográfico. En este programa participan Luis y Salva Vargas, en una conversación profunda sobre cine, historia criminal y el nacimiento del thriller moderno. Porque antes de los policías estilizados y las coreografías imposibles… hubo sudor, asfalto, improvisación y una obsesión llamada Popeye Doyle. Dale al play y entra en la conexión. Este programa cuenta con la producción ejecutiva de nuestr@s mecenas, l@s grandes, l@s únicos Kamy, Lobo Columbus, Enfermera en Mordor, Javier Ramírez, La Casa del Acantilado, Shinyoru, Lestat, Kal-el__80, Cohaggen, Elena Gómez, Olgafies, José Ángel Sanz, Rudy Ayose, Ian Pérez, Ed Salas, Mario López, Miguel Ángel, People Truelove Tellers, Sergio, Cristina AR, Danilo, Arnau VF, Bichodiablo. ¿Quieres ayudarnos a seguir mejorando y creciendo?

In this explosive episode of Game of Crimes, Murph sits down with Lew Rice, a legendary 26-year veteran of the DEA, to pull back the curtain on the brutal realities of America's drug war. Lew shares firsthand stories from the front lines of federal drug enforcement, revealing how drugs like heroin, opioids, meth, and fentanyl have devastated communities across the country. From the early days of the DEA—formed during the heroin crisis of the 1970s—to modern investigations battling fentanyl trafficking, Lew explains how the mission has evolved while the dangers have only intensified.The conversation also dives deep into groundbreaking cases, including the infamous Frank Lucas investigation, which helped establish key legal precedents still used by law enforcement today.

This week's Open Mic guest is Congressman Frank Lucas. The Oklahoma 3rd District representative says covid, global military conflicts and trade have heightened concern surrounding the size of the nation's debt. He believes it is right to question government spending with proper oversight and says the upcoming budget reconciliation process will be the "wildest political rodeo" voters have ever seen. Lucas guided the legislature into approving the 2014 farm bill and wants to see a new bill this year.

Send us a textEpisode 540"Godfather of Harlem" Actor: Rome Flynn | (Frank Lucas)Outside of being named MVP of the 2025 NBA All Star Celebrity Game, Rome Flynn is a terrific actor. Rome Flynn, known for his roles in "How to Get Away With Murder" and "With Love," joins the cast of "Godfather of Harlem" for season 4. He portrays the young Frank Lucas, a real-life gangster who becomes the right-hand man of Forest Whitaker's character, Bumpy Johnson.  Season 4 delves into Lucas's early years, exploring his arrival in Harlem and his initial interactions with Bumpy Johnson. While Denzel Washington portrayed Lucas in the film "American Gangster," "Godfather of Harlem" offers a different perspective, focusing on the period before Lucas's rise to prominence.  The series, inspired by the life of crime boss Bumpy Johnson, follows his attempts to regain control of Harlem after being released from prison.

Rep. Frank Lucas, the chair of a newly created Congressional task force on monetary policy, discusses the panel's agenda and upcoming hearings, the first of which takes place this week. The Ohio Republican grapples with two separate questions: should the Fed be independent and should it have a direct role in banking supervision? 

Mr. Untouchable, a 2007 documentary directed by Marc Levin, describes the rise and fall of former New York City drug kingpin, Leroy (“Nicky”) Barnes. In the early 1970s, Barnes formed “The Council,” an organized crime syndicate that controlled a significant part of the heroin trade in Harlem. Inspired by the Italian-American mafia, Barnes became one of the most powerful and notorious figures in New York City. A flashy and flamboyant fixture on the free-wheeling social scene of the period, Barnes quickly drew the attention of law enforcement. After several unsuccessful state prosecution attempts, Barnes, along with multiple other associates, was indicted by federal prosecutors in New York in 1977. Barnes was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment. Barnes, however, was released in 1998, in exchange for working as a government informant, and entered the Witness Protection Program, where he remained until his death in 2012.  Barnes was also depicted in Ridley Scott's 2007 film American Gangster, which starred Denzel Washington as Frank Lucas, another notorious drug kingpin from the era. Cuba Gooding Jr. portrayed Barnes in that film. Joining me to talk about Mr. Untouchable and the Nicky Barnes case is Robert B. Fiske, Jr., Senior Counsel at Davis Polk in New York, where he previously served as litigation partner for many years. Bob Fiske is one of the most prominent and respected trial lawyers in America. He has been involved in some of the most notable cases of the last half-century, including as special prosecutor in the Whitewater controversy and the death of White House counsel Vince Foster, the Three Mile Island nuclear disaster, the antitrust suit between the USFL and. NFL, the most contentious America's Cup ever, and the financial swindler Bernie Madoff.  Mr. Fiske also served as the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York from 1976 to 1980, during which time he led the prosecution of Nicky Barnes. Timestamps:0:00   Introduction3:18     Drug trafficking in Harlem and the South Bronx in the 1970s4:55    Who was Nicky Barnes6:27     Trying to bring Barnes to justice7:57      “Mr. Untouchable” and a call from Attorney General Griffin Bell13:08   A sequestered and anonymous jury17:22    Navigating credibility issues with key government witnesses29:25   An issue with a juror dubbed the “Marlboro Man”33:46   The guilty verdict against Barnes36:25   The larger implications of the Barnes case37:51    The depiction of Nicky Barnes on filmFurther reading:Barnes, Leroy & Folsom, Tom, Mr. Untouchable: The Rise, Fall, and Resurrection of Heroin's Teflon Don (2007)Ferretti, Fred, “Mr. Untouchable,” N.Y.

Luke Rock and Frank Lucas break down this past Sunday's service.

Sumit Sharma and Chris Mitchell from Breaking Atoms podcast return to Flixwatcher to review Sumit's choice American Gangster. American Gangster (2007) is biographical crime thriller based on Harlem drug lord Frank Lucas. Directed by Ridley Scott and screenplay by Steven Zaillian based on the The Return of Superfly by Mark Jacobson. It's stacked cast features Denzel Washington as Frank Lucas, Russell Crowe as Richie Roberts, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Huey Lucas, Josh Brolin as Detective Trupo, RZA as Moses Jones, Cuba Gooding Jr. as Nicky Barnes, Armand Assante as Dominic Cattano, Idris Elba as Tango and Common as Turner Lucas. In 1960s Harlem Frank Lucas is Bumpy Johnson's right-hand man. When Bumpy dies of a heart attack Frank sees an opportunity to innovate in the drug trade by buying directly from the source in Vietnam and thus cutting out the middle man. Not only that, he trademarks his superior heroin as ‘Blue Magic' and its affordability eliminates the competition. All is going well for Frank until he comes under scrutiny from aspiring lawyer and honest detective Richie Roberts. American Gangster is solid crime drama with a standout performance from Denzel Washington. Like with many Hollywood adaptations what is true and what is there for dramatic effect is unclear but it does make a compelling story of a true life figure. Recommendability scores for American Gangster were high, with a runtime of nearly three hours repeat viewing scores were lower to give an overall rating of 3.88.

Frank Lucas was a notorious American drug trafficker who rose to power in the 1960s and 1970s, primarily known for his role in the heroin trade. Born in North Carolina in 1930, Lucas moved to Harlem, New York, where he became involved in organized crime under the mentorship of Ellsworth "Bumpy" Johnson. After Johnson's death, Lucas built his own drug empire by bypassing the traditional Mafia-controlled networks and directly sourcing heroin from Southeast Asia, a strategy that allowed him to dominate the market with a purer and cheaper product known as "Blue Magic."At the peak of his operation, Lucas was earning up to $1 million a day, making him one of the most powerful drug lords in the country. However, his success attracted the attention of law enforcement, leading to his arrest in 1975. Lucas eventually cooperated with authorities, providing information that led to the conviction of numerous corrupt officials and criminals. His life story was later dramatized in the film American Gangster, bringing his tale of crime, wealth, and eventual downfall to a wider audience.Lucas passed away in 2019, leaving behind a legacy as both a feared criminal and a symbol of the devastating impact of the heroin trade on American society.(commercial at 9:25)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Welcome back to PPM. Diddy Declassified Dossier #1. Sub to the Patreon to support the show & access upcoming "Diddy Declassified" exclusives: patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping Our objectives: expose Sean “Diddy” Combs's confidential informant credentials examine evidence indicating the Diddler's sex trafficking ring is an intel op run the politically-motivated Tupac assassination back w/ new insights culled from the snowballing Diddy scandals & the Keefe D arrest use the Diddler as a lens w/ which to magnify the Zio powerbloc in the music industry & his enmeshment w/in it use all of the above to sketch the lengthy history of fed law enforcement & intel's efforts to infiltrate, suppress, & break up black liberation, civilian defense, communist, & nat'list movements in the US & abroad, examining the machinations & depredations of the elaborate anti-comm counterintel apparatus that maintains the power structure & status quo thru counterinsurgent, cultural programming, & mass mind control means In Dossier #1, we embark w/ a brief convo about SLANK's musical upbringing, genesis as an MC, & rev potentialities of music... From there, we properly contextualize the Diddler op within the COINTELPRO & F B I War on Black Leaders continuum; SLANK shares about the Hoover black heritage rumors & the counterfeiting dep't in the Bureau that astroturfed & deliberately stirred up shit & feuds within various civil rights & black liberation mvmts from the Harlem Renaissance to the letter sent to MLK Jr purportedly written by a fellow "clergyman" (read: white F B I staff member snake) pressuring him to commit suicide; the Hoover proclivity for kompromat collection & his fabled files; we talk the Clinton Crimeboss's Telecomm Act, music industry corporatization, & its relationship to this tale; we unpack the Ayanna Jackson incident, the NY Studio shooting of Tupac, & the coincidental surveilling presence of feds & informants at both the Tupac & Biggie crime scenes... Kicking off our hard-hitting bio of Sean “Puffy” Combs, we examine his Air Force serviceman Dad's biz ties to Frank Lucas; his likely gang warfare murder when Combs was 3 yrs old; Diddy's internship w/ Andre Harrell at Uptown, his abortive Howard U career & sex assault allegations that date back to his collegiate party promoting days in DC; his possibly incentivized, rumored gay relationship w/ Zio music exec Clive Davis; & we conclude Dossier #1 w/ what may well be an exclusive PPM revelation re Diddy, namely our contention that the Diddler may have been caught up in a major child sex abuse scandal at the Catholic academy he attended as a teen, the implications of which are immense... That before Diddy became the Diddler, he may have been Diddled himself... And if not, there's a strong chance that he landed on the feds' radar or even established contact w/ them at that early age—possibly the beginning of his suspected confidential informant relationship. And much, much more in b/w. I'm privileged to be joined by a scholar w/ a breadth of knowledge re these topics that far exceeds my own. Helping to lead this investigation is someone who can speak to the vitality of hip hop & its revolutionary potential from a place of personal, lived experience. I'm psyched to welcome SLANK to the show—SLANK is a fearsome MC & one part of SLANK & Sunny Ture (recent release: "Nation Time Vol. 2"). SLANK is also a deep historian & a law school grad. The ep opens w/ SLANK's track “Battle Kings”, so if you dig, make sure to check out his projects & give him a follow on Twitter @DabSquad_Slank. Also, a huge shout out to Robert Voyvodic, who took SLANK's & my scribbled chicken scratch Diddler power map & rendered it in glorious, mechanic network graph detail. Def give Robert a follow on Twitter at @rvoy__ & bring him your digital artwork & design needs. Tracks: | SLANK - "Battle Kings" | | Prince Philip Mitchell - "If We Can't Be Lovers" | | Tupac - "Trapped" | | R. Kelly - "I Can't Sleep Baby (If I) Remix" |

Today's DriveTime takes a look at the recent figures from the Consumer Price Index and hears from Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and Rep. Frank Lucas, R-Okla., on a farm bill timeline. 

This week's Open Mic guest is Rep. Frank Lucas, R-Okla. On the sidelines of last week's American Farm Bureau convention in Salt Lake City, Lucas lamented the political headwinds of writing new farm and food policy. Lucas said the nation's spending plan is most challenging and provides inadequate resources for the hungry and producers facing a challenging economic climate. Lucas says more funds are needed and believes reallocating previously approved dollars is the best financial solution. Without those resources, Lucas would favor another extension of the 2018 farm bill to give more time for Congress to allocate resources. Lucas is keen on a pending SCOTUS decision on regulatory deference and wants an “all of the above” approach to the nation's energy policy.
