Podcasts about Kingpin

Ernesto Ayala vuelve al podcast para hablar con Villalobos acerca de los directores / guionistas que despeinaron y renovaron la comedia de Hollywood en los 90. Mencionan títulos como Tonto y Retonto y Green Book, pero en general se concentran en Kingpin, Loco por Mary, Irene, yo y mi otro yo y Amor ciego. 

Episode 91 - Murdock and Marvel: 2017 It was a big year for comics in theaters, but local comic shops did not do nearly as well, with sales diving substantially from 2016.

Daredevil's protégé Blindspot is invited to a warehouse where a giant blood mural has been painted. He phones Daredevil and the pair investigate while the owner of the warehouse starts charging admission so people can see the twisted art.   When the mural gets desecrated by an address, the pair find another equally horrifying art exhibit made with inhumans. Daredevil has a brief interaction with Muse on the building's rooftop before Muse escapes. While Daredevil tries to get help from Medusa and the inhumans, Blindspot goes after Muse and finds his hideout and several hostages he plans to use in his next art piece. Blindspot frees the hostages and acts as a decoy to Muse so they can escape. Blindspot though is captured by Muse and before Daredevil can save him, Muse gouges his eyes out.   Ultimately Daredevil defeats Muse and gets Blindspot to a hospital, but the damage is done. Matt Murdock is left feeling very guilty he let his student be hurt.  This leads to a short 2 book story arch called the Seventh Day where Matt enters a church for the first time in a while and speaks with Father Jordan. The story is light on action but makes up for it with real character development will be our Spotlight story of the week.   Next, Matt Murdock returns to Father Jordan and the confessional booth and finally answers the question we've had all series – “How was Matt able to make everyone forget he is Daredevil?” as he recounts his final days in San Francsico in a story called Purple.    Not surprising it has to do with Killgrave and his purple children. Killgrave used a guard in prison to escape and upon escaping sought his children to elevate his power beyond it's already dangerous level. Two of the children show up a Mat Murdock's house just ahead of a hoard of crazed people sent by Killgrave to capture them. Matt locks them and Kirsten in a panic room and then incapacitates the mob.   Daredevil goes after Killgrave and upon finding him, the rest of the kidnapped children and his power-boosting machine, Daredevil can't keep from falling under the purple man's influence.  Killgrave toys with him asking asks Daredevil what exactly the worst possible thing he could do is. Daredevil suggests the Purple Man to have everybody, heroes, villains and civilians, wreak havoc upon the streets. When asked what he would do in this scenario, Daredevil simply says "nothing".  This outrages Killgrave which is apparently enough for Daredevil to break free of control and takedown Killgrave. As a thank you for saving them, the Purple kids decide to help Daredevil by using the device and making everyone in the world forget that Matt Murdock and Daredevil are one in the same. Daredevil returns home where Kirsten doesn't realize Daredevil and Matt are the same so he leaves and decided to use this free start to go back to New York and start over.  This leads us into the next story – Supreme. In it we see Matt Murdock and Daredevil team up take the fight against criminals to the courtroom. Daredevil, with the help of Luke Cage and Echo – stop the Munition Militia from blowing up city hall but are only manage to capture Simon “Slug” Slugansky in the process. It's then ADA Murdock puts his idea into motion – have Daredevil testify against Slugansky in court – without revealing his secret identity.   The defense team tries to discredit the red suit wearing Daredevil saying “anyone can wear a suit”. Daredevil proves he is the real deal when the Milita charge into the courtroom attempting to free they cohort. When the dust settles, Daredevil is able to give testimony and the District Attorney's office wins the now high-profile case.   Seeing how the decision could affect his business interests, Kingpin launches a two-part attack on Matt Murdock to see the case go away is it gets appealed to higher and higher courts. He hires a former lead attorney for Tony Stark called just “Legal” to represent Slugansky in court and hires Tombstone to take out Murdock when not in court.   Legal is able to get the verdict overturned in the New York Supreme Court – which angers D.A. Hochberg (Matt's boss) saying he needs to stop using New York resources. That causes Matt to reach out to Foggy for help – which is interrupted by a Tombstone attack. Matt uses his Daredevil skills to beat him and escape with Foggy and Foggy agrees to help. Fast forward 2 weeks and the case is being heard by the Supreme Court.  To Foggy's surprise, Matt confesses that he lost the previous appeals case on purpose. He says he needed it to come before the Supremes in order for the ruling to have true power. And while waiting to for the case to be called, Matt gets confirmation Kingpin was the one who hired Legal. While arguing before the Justices, Murdock imagines his exchange with them as a physical battle, and feels like he's getting beat up badly. In his rebuttal to Legal's opening statement he stresses the voluntary good that all citizens are obliged to do.   Ten days later, the court rules in Matt's favor, potentially changing the entire landscape of law enforcement. Matt calls Foggy and tries to explain why he needs to fight criminals both in the courtroom and in the streets at once. He reverts to his classic red costume. Meanwhile, In NYC, and enraged Kingpin punches out a window, and tells Wesley to turn to Plan C.  The year ends with a 3-book story called “Land of the Blind”. Matt learns Samuel Chung (aka Blindspot) is in China, so he travels there looking for him. Shortly after arriving, he's captured by Blindspot and put in a hole for what seems like several months. We learn he has gotten his eyesight back thanks to a deal his mother made with the Beast and the Hand. Sam wants to trade Daredevil's life for the life of his mother – which he does. Though he has a change of heart during their escape and the pair return and help Daredevil escape. Upon returning to NYC, Daredevil learns Wilson Fisk has been elected Mayor of New York.  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil v5 Issues 15 and 16 from March 2017 “The Seventh Day”  Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway It was a big year for women in comics.

Spidey would be there to stop him, but he's got his own problems, namely the Stacy family, specifically George's cane! While Pete tries to explain to Gwen that he doesn't beat up the elderly, we yap about what makes a "Strongman" and how they use structural domination to consolidate their control.

What happens when you flip one of our favorite questions on its head?In this episode, Todd Rossnagel and co-host Tim Arnold respond to a listener challenge from fan of the show Dave Schwind: instead of picking songs they want Wilco to cover, they imagine which artists should be covering Wilco. From Beck tackling “Sunken Treasure” to Paul McCartney reimagining “Sonny Feeling,” from Dead & Company stretching out on “Kingpin” to Sturgill Simpson turning “Bull Black Nova” into a fuzz-drenched nightmare.We talk about what makes a cover transcendent, why some songs seem built to be reinterpreted, and how Wilco's catalog invites dialogue across genres and generations. As always, it's less about settling debates and more about loving the music, thinking out loud, and continuing the long tradition of shoving Wilco onto friends, family, and anyone willing to listen.Listener ideas welcome. Voice memos encouraged. Got an idea? Email us: shovingwilco@gmail.com

Sam Bankman-Fried BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Sam Bankman-Fried, the fallen crypto kingpin serving a 25-year sentence at Brooklyns notorious Metropolitan Detention Center, made headlines this week as high-profile chatter swirls around his harsh fate. On Thursday, Anthony Scaramucci, the fiery former White House comms chief who lost big in FTXs collapse, told CNBC that Samb 25 years feels a bit too much, even as he slammed the fraud that victimized him and thousands more. Scaramucci, who penned a pardon letter for Binance ex-boss Changpeng Zhao—recently freed by Trump—hinted Samb lack of Trump ties seals his doom, adding as a Christian, the sentence seems onerous given the chaos aftermath. No pardon call though; he insists Sam deserved jail time.Prison buzz heated up too, with Business Insider and AOL reporting accused UnitedHealthcare slayer Luigi Mangione, fresh from solitary, poised to join Sam and Sean Diddy Combs in the jails 15-man protective custody unit by Monday—high-profile troublemakers bunking amid maggot meals and barbaric conditions that have dogged the Sunset Park hellhole. Sam, 32, stays mum there post his March fraud conviction for looting over eight billion in customer cash.Do Kwons Thursday sentencing to 15 years for his 40 billion TerraLuna scam—10 years lighter than Sams—stirred comparisons galore. BeInCrypto and Finance Magnates noted Kwons guilty plea, victim apologies, and looming Korean charges softened his US blow, unlike Sams evasive trial lies, perjury findings, and zero remorse that Judge Lewis Kaplan scorched. Law360 meanwhile flagged FTX customers pushing a 10 million Silvergate settlement for final approval on December 9, a trickle of justice years after the implosion.Book chatter lingers too, as The American Prospect reviewed David Z. Morriss Stealing the Future this week, painting Sam as a chameleon con artist who played media like a harp from Hell, chasing power via effective altruism hype. Amid crypto CEOs dropping like flies—Kwons lighter hit now a benchmark—no fresh Sam sightings, pleas, or posts surfaced, just echoes of his enduring infamy.

Episode 89 - Murdock and Marvel: 2015 Part 2 2015 was a turning point for the American comic industry in a number of ways, and seems to be a satisfying place to wrap up our look at over 50 years of American comic books.  This year is in many ways a fulcrum that links the insular comics world that I grew up in with the fast-moving media-entwined and politically-charged environment of recent times.    This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 2015.   The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil v4 #10-18, She-Hulk #10, Superior Iron Man #1-2, Marvel Free Previews Scret Wars #1, Deadpool #45, Night Nurse #1, Secret Wars Journal #5, All-New, All-Different Point One #1  Writer: Mark Waid (#10-18)  Pencils: Chris Samnee (#10-18)  Inks: Chris Samnee (#10-18)  We kick off the year with the big Purple Man arc that rolled over from 2014. Kilgrave is having a full-on existential crisis—he wants genuine affection for once—so he rounds up his five kids, each of whom has a piece of his mind-control powers. But teaming them up backfires spectacularly: the kids turn on him and literally toss him into the street… where he gets smoked by a train. Classic family bonding.  With dad out of the picture, the kids go wild—stealing a cop car, causing mayhem—until Daredevil shows up to contain them. But these kids aren't like Kilgrave alone; together they're a psychic wrecking ball and Matt ends up curled under a bridge in a full panic response. Kilgrave, very much alive, shows up to beat him senseless… until one magic word—“fear”—snaps Matt back into fight mode. Still, Kilgrave and the kids slip away.  After regrouping with Kirsten, Daredevil tracks the whole purple family to a mall arcade (which is honestly a perfect place for a mind-control clan). With some strategic help from police, Matt gets the kids separated so their powers weaken, and everyone—including Kilgrave—gets taken into custody. And the issue closes with a surprisingly tender moment of Matt finally letting Kirsten in—on every level.  Meanwhile, there's a running side plot: Kirsten's father offers Matt eight million dollars for a Daredevil autobiography. So throughout the year we see Matt and his ghostwriter Foggy chipping away at the book.  Next up: the Stunt-Master saga. A new, young, daredevil wannabe is stealing the identity of the original Stunt-Master and pulling off death-defying stunts all over San Francisco. The original, George Smith, wants to sue and goes to Matt—but legally, he doesn't really have a case. When the new Stunt-Master publicly challenges Daredevil to join his next big stunt on the Golden Gate Bridge, Matt refuses… until he hears that Smith has apparently committed suicide.  Daredevil accepts the challenge and instantly realizes something is off. He discovers that the rider at the stunt is actually Smith himself—and that the “new” Stunt-Master's whole trick is murdering stand-ins to survive his stunts. Matt gives chase in a wild car/motorcycle sequence, only for Kirsten to be the one who cracks the final twist: Smith faked the suicide and played everyone. His goal wasn't fame—it was immortality as the world's greatest “death cheater.”  Then we get a really fun twist: Kirsten gets her own arch-nemesis. Matt's worried that their relationship is putting her in danger… and then she's kidnapped. Except it's not one of Matt's villains—it's the Lilac Killer, a serial killer Kirsten has been investigating. She's thrilled, shouting, “I have my own arch-foe!” while Daredevil rescues her. It's great.  In Issue #14, the Matt/Daredevil identity line really starts blurring. Matt's now showing up in court in a full red suit with a giant DD belt buckle, handing out Daredevil business cards—subtlety is dead. He's asked to investigate a “bird-man predator,” which sends him into a team-up with Jubula Pride, the Owl's daughter. They eventually discover the Owl himself has been kidnapped and wired into a massive surveillance system run by the Shroud, who is spiraling emotionally and spying on everyone through any electronic device.  Daredevil and Jubula try taking the Shroud down but get overwhelmed. When they go to the deputy mayor for help, things get worse—Jubula gets mistaken for a child kidnapper because of events going all the way back to Issue #1. So now the cops are after both of them, and Jubula drops the bomb: there's only one person who can help… Wilson Fisk.  Then we get an out-of-order Issue 15.1—a couple of standalone stories from Mark Waid, Chris Samnee, and Marc Guggenheim—but we'll save that one for this week's spotlight.  Back to the main story: Matt meets with Kingpin and asks for protection for himself and his friends from the Shroud. Fisk loves every second of this and demands payment. Matt gives him the wildest offer possible: “I offer you the death of Matt Murdock. Interested?”  Meanwhile, Foggy and Kirsten are ambushed and kidnapped by Ikari—the hyper-sensed assassin from Volume 3—now working for Fisk. And Kingpin has also secretly captured Julia Carpenter, the woman the Shroud is obsessed with.  Jubula tracks Julia to the airport and tries to hand her over to the Shroud as a bargaining chip for her father, but Daredevil crashes the meeting, Julia refuses to go, and everything explodes. Matt returns to Fisk to negotiate but finds Ikari holding Foggy, Kirsten, and Julia hostage. Fisk wants to ditch their original terms and just watch Ikari kill Daredevil. The fight spills across San Francisco until the Shroud intervenes and kills Ikari—realizing Fisk has Julia. He proposes a truce with Matt to save the people they love.  In the big finale, Daredevil disguises himself as Ikari to infiltrate Fisk's stronghold. The ruse works… for about 30 seconds. Foggy starts fighting a guard, chaos erupts, and Fisk realizes Ikari is dead. But just then the Shroud broadcasts Fisk's secret business dealings to the world—mirroring what he once did to Matt—and police storm the building. In the chaos, Daredevil gets the hostages free and escapes.  The dust settles: Julia Carpenter takes down the Shroud with a poisoned kiss. The deputy mayor rescinds the arrest warrant and helps clean up Matt's legal fallout. And Foggy and Matt share a grounded heart-to-heart about what it means for Matt to be “living in the light”.  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil Volume 4, Issue 15.1 July 2015 Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway Its always dangerous when your hero is happy.

Tonight, we're diving deep into a topic that has every collector's wallet sweating: TOY REISSUES! Are they a blessing for new collectors looking to fill holes in their display, or are they killing the secondary market for long-time fans?The guys break down how companies like #Hasbro are constantly re-releasing figures—sometimes even on the exact same card—and what that does to the value of rare figures (RIP those $2,000 Ahsoka figures).In this episode, we talk about:• The #MarvelLegends Retro line re-release of #Kingpin, #Rhino, and #CaptainAmerica.• The true meaning of a "reissue" vs. a "re-imagining" (looking at you, #JurassicPark Hammond Collection).• Why big toy companies are leaning on nostalgia and re-molds instead of making new lines for modern movies.• The future of the toy world, including the rise of K-pop, #Labubu, and the unstoppable, eternal power of #HotWheels.• The painful truth that kids don't really play with action figures anymore.• We want to know what YOU think! Is a reissue an automatic PASS or an instant BUY for your collection? Which re-release made you mad? Let us know in the comments below!

In this powerful episode of Gangland Wire, retired Intelligence Unit detective Gary Jenkins sits down with Tegan Broadwater, a former Fort Worth Police officer, musician, and undercover operative whose story reads like a movie script. Broadwater takes listeners on a riveting journey from his early years as a professional musician to his dramatic turn infiltrating one of America's most dangerous street gangs—the Crips. Drawing from his book Life in the Fishbowl, he details how music, culture, and human connection became unexpected tools for survival and success inside the underworld. Listeners will hear: How Tegan Broadwater transitioned from touring musician to undercover police officer, bringing creativity and adaptability to the streets. The story of his two-year infiltration into the Crips—posing as a South Texas drug dealer with the help of a trusted informant. His insights into gang hierarchy, loyalty, and manipulation, and how understanding culture was key to earning trust. The moral challenges of living undercover—forming friendships with men he would eventually arrest. The emotional impact of a major gang raid that ended with over 50 arrests, and how it changed his outlook on justice and humanity. His decision to donate proceeds from his book to the children of incarcerated parents aims to break the cycle of violence. He continues to share lessons on leadership, empathy, and cultural understanding through his private security firm and new podcast projects.   Broadwater's story isn't just about crime and undercover operations—it's about identity, compassion, and the human cost of violence. This episode offers a rare look at what it means to live behind a mask while still holding onto one's purpose.

In this explosive episode, former USC football standout Owen Hanson—once living the dream on the field—reveals how he plunged into the dark underworld of the Sinaloa Cartel, moving hundreds of millions in cocaine across continents. Known as “O-Dog”, Hanson opens up about his journey from campus celebrity and sports bookmaker to international drug trafficker working directly with El Chapo's network. Host Johnny Mitchell dives deep into Hanson's transformation—from selling steroids to teammates at USC, to orchestrating high-level cartel deals spanning Peru, Mexico, Australia, and the U.S. Hanson recounts the lavish highs, the paranoia of living double lives, and the eventual FBI sting that brought it all crashing down. Now a free man and entrepreneur, Hanson shares how he rebuilt himself after prison, founding California Ice Protein and using his story to warn others about ego, greed, and the illusion of power. This episode blends crime, redemption, and raw honesty—a gripping story of how a promising athlete became a global kingpin, and how he's now rewriting his legacy. Go Support Owen!

Before Matt officially joined the show as a co-host he was invited on as guest to talk about one of his favourite movies of all time, ‘Swingers'. Now returning in an official capacity to the ToB Film Club, he brings with him another film from his top-3, another comedy, ‘Kingpin'. A Farrelly brothers film that followed up their smash hit breakout, ‘Dumb and Dumber', and you can see the through lines. Like ‘Dumb and Dumber' we follow two guys who are down on their luck as they head out on the road where chaos and hilarity ensue. Unfortunately it wasn't the hit they hoped despite a killer cast, including legends Bill Murray, Randy Quaid and Woody Harrelson and as a result it didn't leave as large of a cultural footprint as some of the other Farrelly brothers films from this era. It's been nearly 30 years so now seems as good a time as any to revisit this sleeper and see what everyone was missing back then. Next Month: We seem to be unable to escape the 90's, and why would we want to when there's still so much to see! For November we take a look at a proto-Matrix movie by Alex Proyas - things get weird (probably) in the 1998 film ‘Dark City'.

On this week's episode, Cody kicks things off with an enthusiastic discussion about some of the exciting news emerging from the highly anticipated New York Comic-Con 2025. He shares with Joe the thrilling announcement regarding the much-celebrated return of Jessica Jones, a character that has garnered a loyal fanbase, as she will be portrayed once again by the talented actress Kristen Ritter in the upcoming season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again. This revival has sparked a wave of excitement among fans, who are eager to see how Jessica's character will evolve within the gritty narrative of Hell's Kitchen. Additionally, Cody reveals that there will be a new addition to the cast for this season: none other than Matthew Lillard, known for his diverse roles in both film and television, who will take on the character of Mr. Charles. This character is expected to serve as a formidable rival to Vincent D'Onofrio's iconic portrayal of Wilson Fisk, also known as Kingpin. The dynamic between these characters promises to add depth and intrigue to the unfolding storylines.Continuing the conversation, Cody expresses his enthusiasm about Edgar Wright's upcoming project, The Running Man, which has been generating buzz in the film community. He discusses the unique approach Wright is known for, particularly his ability to blend humor with action, and how this might redefine the classic narrative originally conceived by Stephen King. Cody's excitement is palpable as he transitions to a discussion about anime, specifically highlighting his anticipation for the new season of One-Punch Man. This leads to an engaging dialogue between the two about the intricacies of anime, including the often-controversial topic of filler episodes. They explore how filler can sometimes detract from the main storyline, yet also provide opportunities for character development and world-building, leading to a deeper appreciation of the medium.As the episode progresses, the conversation shifts to literature, with both Cody and Joe sharing insights about the books they are currently reading. Cody dives into a discussion about The End of the World as We Know It: New Tales of Stephen King's The Stand, a collection of short stories that expand upon the universe of King's iconic novel. He elaborates on how these new tales offer fresh perspectives and narratives that enrich the original story, and how they resonate with contemporary themes of survival and morality. Joe then shares his own literary journey, revealing that he has started reading the latest installment in the Robert Langdon series, titled The Secret of Secrets. This prompts a lively exchange about Dan Brown's distinctive writing style, his penchant for weaving intricate puzzles, and the thrill of uncovering hidden truths within historical contexts.To wrap up the episode, the guys delve into a discussion about the novel "S." by Doug Dorst and J.J. Abrams. They explore the innovative narrative structure of the book, which combines a story with margins filled with annotations, letters, and other ephemera that create a multi-layered reading experience. Cody and Joe contemplate the implications of such a format on storytelling and how it challenges traditional narratives, inviting readers to engage in a more interactive way. Their conversation reflects a shared appreciation for creativity in literature and the evolving nature of storytelling in both books and other media. Overall, this episode is packed with insights, excitement, and a celebration of the rich tapestry of storytelling across various platforms.Official Website: https://www.comesnaturallypodcast.comOfficial Merchandise: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/comes-naturally-podcast/iTunes: http://tinyurl.com/kqkgackFacebook: http://tinyurl.com/myovgm8Tumblr: http://tinyurl.com/m7a6mg9Twitter: @ComesNaturalPodYouTube: http://tiny.cc/5snxpy

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universes While Marvel Studios allegiance to San Diego and Hall H seems to have waned in recent years, not so for last weekend's New York City Comic Con where our favorite cinematic universe teased the latest and greatest for their small screen offerings. Let's rundown the biggest headlines from Marvel Television:Wonder Man released its official teaser trailer alongside the announcement that the 8-episode series had been delayed from December 2025 to January 27, 2026Fans in attendance were treated to an exclusive trailer for Daredevil: Born Again Season 2, presented by Daredevil actor Charlie Cox who was reunited with Jessica Jones actor Krysten Ritter. The series was confirmed for a March 2026 release on Disney Plus and we also learned Wilson Bethel's Bullseye will return and Matthew Lillard will be an antagonist to Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin. Separate from NYCC, but still worth mentioning on the subject of Daredevil: Born Again, speaking with Entertainment Tonight Marvel TV Head Brad Winderbaum shared the season's connection to Spider-Man: Brand New Day, saying "We are communicating a lot with the team on Spider-Man: Brand New Day to make sure that there's coherence there. We don't want to spoil anything, but it very much exists in the same world and it is important."VisionQuest and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Season 2 were confirmed for Fall 2026 release windows, while X-Men '97 Season 2 was announced for Summer 2026. All three shows debuted exclusive trailers not yet released to the public and both animated series confirmed their third seasons to be in development.On the DCU TV side of things, Peacemaker Season 2 aired its final episode last week, and while we'll avoid getting specific with spoilers given the recency, when asked about a third season James Gunn did provide comments on the series' future and its impact on the DCU at large, saying, “This is about the other stories in which this [cliffhanger] will play out,” he said. “Never say never. But right now, this is about the future of the DCU.” Gunn also shared that he spoke with Ryan Reynolds about a Deadpool cameo in Peacemaker and that while the actor was interested, the logistics required to pull off the crossover were ultimately deemed too daunting.Despite Tron: Ares' number one spot debut at the box office last weekend with a $60.5 million global haul, the numbers are disappointingly muted when weighed against projections of $85-95 million and a reported $180 million budget. The film currently holds a 56% on Rotten Tomatoes and B+ Cinemascore.HBO revealed the debut trailer for Game of Thrones spin off A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms at New York Comic Con last week and has announced a premiere date of Jan. 18.Bradley Cooper is in talks to star opposite Margot Robbie in the Ocean's Eleven prequel at Warner Bros.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another unfiltered, no-holds-barred episode of the Mike Drop Podcast—where relevancy is irrelevant, and we dive headfirst into the raw stories of warriors, survivors, and straight-up legends. In the shadowy underbelly of the early internet, one man turned the tables on a digital predator like no one else could. Dr. James McGibney, a former U.S. Marine and founder of ⁠Bullyville.com⁠, orchestrated the downfall of Hunter Moore—the infamous "revenge porn king" behind ⁠IsAnyoneUp.com⁠, the site's explosive takedown chronicled in Netflix's gripping documentary The Most Hated Man on the Internet. What started as a personal vow to infiltrate Moore's world, befriend him, and dismantle his empire from the inside became a masterclass in digital vigilantism, proving that sometimes, to beat a bully, you have to out-bully them. But McGibney's story isn't just about cyber sleuthing; it's forged in the fires of unimaginable hardship. Born in the South Bronx, he endured a childhood ripped apart by domestic violence, foster care horrors—including abuse that left scars deeper than code—and a burning quest for retribution that shaped his unyielding drive. From ripping out his own braces in a defiant act of rebellion to channeling that rage into protecting the vulnerable, McGibney's path reveals how personal demons fuel world-changing justice. Buckle up for this mike drop episode, where McGibney drops raw truths on everything from his Marine days and cyber security expertise to the meticulous, "psychotic" beauty of intelligent revenge. It's a riveting blend of heartbreak, heroism, and hard-won wisdom that reminds us: in a world of anonymous cowards, one voice—amplified by grit—can shatter empires. Learn more about your ad choices.
