Born to a Japanese-American family in ritzy suburban Orange County, California, Kenny “Kenji” Gallo was a bookish, hyperactive kid who lived a double life as a car-bombing, gun-toting international drug trafficker. He owned a nightclub, produced porn movies, and was arrested for the murder of his own best friend- all before he could legally drink. Gallo graduated to life as a jet-setting playboy thug, refining his gangster style under Mafia legends, marrying a legendary porn star, and making millions in credit and stock fraud, extortion, gambling, and the sex trade. Then, after more than two daredevil decades, Gallo voluntarily wired up as an under cover FBI informant in exchange for a fresh start, nearly losing his life in the process. From 1980s cocaine cowboys, to the modern mob and its Tony Soprano wannabes, to the porn industry's dirty secrets, this riveting and redemptive memoir captures the American underworld in all its tawdry spectacle.

Ring of Hell is excellent in its research and exploration of how wrestling can be fraught with sadistic individuals that are only too willing to prey upon those hoping to "live their dreams." What happened with Chris Benoit, his wife and young son was tragic in every sense of the word, but, as the book details, how can you not expect such an insane demise for individuals participating within such an insane world? As each part of Chris Benoit's career is detailed - starting in Stu Hart's "Dungeon," idolizing "The Dynamite Kid" (a woefully tragic individual in his own right), working within the Stampede Wrestling Promotion, moving on to Japan and then ultimately becoming a star in the ECW, WCW and WWE promotions - you see how a naive individual participates in ritualized abuse and then succumbs when steroid and medication abuse compounds the damage received over multiple years. BREAKSHOT -"Crammed with the kind of characters and detail that make pages turn and moviemakers salivate, self-described 'mobster, drug lord, and porn kingpin' Gallo’s story of life as a criminal and mafia associate is tantalizing material. ... Honest, critical, occasionally remorseful and always entrancing, this criminal memoir will keep readers on the edge of their seats." --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/burl-barer/support

Tough Talk Christian Radio with Host Tony Gambone and Special Guest Jonathan McCormick and Kenji Gallo: Jonathan McCormick is nobody that anyone would know. My life has been a winding road as with most people. Incredible blessings, troubles, and mistakes. Lot's of learning and a deep need for grace, coupled with an insatiable desire to get to the bottom of things. My gift in life is that I notice things which others overlook. I have kept this gift to myself until recently. But, I am discovering that the truth was meant to be shared and will canker your soul away as sure as cancer if you don't get it out and for that reason, I have begun to share the things I see with the world. http://jamccormick.net/ Kenji Gallo was in the Mafia for 20 years. I wore a wire for the FBI for 8 years. Went into the Witness Protection Program and left it. Started a blog, wrote a book and got published in hardback and mass market paperback by Phoenix Books and Simon And Shuster. I wrote and sold screenplays in Hollywood to Fox and History Channel. I became a top trainer for Fighters and Actors. I am an MMA Fighter and a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt. I am a public speaker that has spoken at both big and small venues. I have a great story of change and hope. I am a Christian and would love to share my testimony on how my life changed when I allowed God into my life. I now live on a farm in Illinois, I teach boxing to Parkinson's patients with the Rock Steady Boxing program. I live a rich and full life that I thank the Lord for every day! https://betterlivedlives.com/
