Send us Fan MailToday's show is going to be a little different. Usually, I interview professionals who are law enforcement, military, or victims of crimes. Today, I will interview a man who was a criminal. This is a story of second chances and what can be accomplished after making a mistake.Today on the show, I have Owen Hanson, whose life story was featured in the Mark Wahlberg production documentary, Cocaine Quarterback, available on Amazon Prime. Owen is a California kid whose mother left him and his father at a young age. He grew up playing volleyball and earned a scholarship to play at the University of Southern California. In his sophomore year, he was essentially cut from the team. His coach told him to get bigger and improve his vertical leap. So, Owen worked out six days a week, twice a week, and made it as a walk-on to the football team. He also took performance-enhancing drugs in his quest to become stronger and faster. This kid, who came from a modest middle-class broken home, was now partying with rock stars and other celebrities. He was also the team's and campus's drug dealer. After graduation, he wound up working as a bookie, money launderer, and associate with a Mexican drug cartel. At one point, he was making over a million dollars a day until it all came crashing down on him. He was tried and sentenced to 21 years in federal prison. Through a cooperation agreement with the Australian government, he was released after nine years. While he was in prison, he started a frozen protein product that he is now selling as a free man. Owen made a mistake, paid the price, and is now reinventing himself. He is proof that sometimes all someone needs is a second chance. In today's episode, we discuss:·      Having his mom abandon him as a young boy.·      Your route to USC via volleyball and feeling out of place with the rich kids in his school.·      Dealing illegal drugs in college.·      The availability of powder cocaine at USC in the early 2000s.·      Being benched his sophomore year in college volleyball.·      Becoming a walk-on for the football team. ·      Being the team's drug dealer, getting the drugs at the veterinarian's office in Tijuana.·      Living the rock and roll lifestyle as a college football player.·      How he got involved with a Mexican drug cartel.·      Making prison frozen protein.·      Does he ever look over your shoulder, thinking a cartel hitman might come after him?Head on over to Owen's website to learn more about his story!Head on over to my website! What's the craziest thing you saw when you were a cop?My first week on the job, a guy running at me with a butcher knife.

The teases for Daredevil Born Again SEASON 3 gave us goosebumps! !! Coy Jandreau & Greg Alba sit down with the legendary Vincent D'Onofrio for an in-depth Daredevil: Born Again interview about Wilson Fisk / Kingpin, Charlie Cox's Daredevil, Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, the creative overhaul behind the series, and what may be ahead for Daredevil Season 3. Vincent D'Onofrio (Daredevil, Full Metal Jacket, Men in Black, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, The Cell) reflects on returning as Wilson Fisk / Kingpin, breaking down the psychology, physicality, voice inspiration, and emotional foundation behind one of Marvel's most intimidating villains. The conversation explores Fisk's loneliness, rage, dark sense of humor, spirituality, and the Kingpin improvised “boo” scene, along with how comic book artists like David Mack helped shape his performance. Plus, Vincent drops a surprise, passionate casting pitch to join James Gunn's DC Universe as Swamp Thing! The interview also dives into the Daredevil: Born Again creative overhaul, with D'Onofrio discussing how he, Charlie Cox, and the creative team pushed to make the series feel more like a true Daredevil story. He talks about Marvel Studios' creative support, Kevin Feige, why Marvel reshot portions of Daredevil, and how the team had to “Frankenstein” what had already been shot to build a stronger version of the show. D'Onofrio also teases Daredevil Season 3, including more action, emotional journeys, and new territory involving Kingpin's childhood backstory, size, trauma, and the darkness that shaped Wilson Fisk. Based on the iconic Marvel Comics characters, Daredevil: Born Again continues the story of Matt Murdock / Daredevil (Charlie Cox — Stardust, Boardwalk Empire, The Theory of Everything) and Wilson Fisk / Kingpin as their mirrored obsessions with justice, control, morality, and the soul of New York City pull them deeper into conflict. The conversation also heads into DC territory as D'Onofrio opens up about his dream of playing Swamp Thing, why Alec Holland speaks to him emotionally, and what he would bring to James Gunn's DCU if given the chance. From Vincent D'Onofrio's Swamp Thing pitch to Marvel behind-the-scenes stories, Marvel snipers, Kingpin's dark psychology, and the future of Daredevil Season 3, this Reel Rejects interview offers a rare look inside one of the MCU's most unforgettable comic book performances.

Buon venerdì Stupefan! Siamo reduci dalla prima partita di questi mondiali di calcio, di cui noi stupefatti sappiamo poco e nulla. Ciò di cui sappiamo, però, è che saranno dei campionati diffusi che - oltre che in Canada e negli Stati Uniti - si disputeranno anche in Messico, Stato a noi caro perché è quello in cui la guerra alla droga di stampo repressivo ha mietuto più vittime. A febbraio gli scontri tra Narcos ed esercito, dopo l'uccisione del boss del cartello di Jalisco Nuova Generazione "El Mencho", avevano provocato la sospensione di alcune partite tra spareggi, amichevoli e campionati minori e l'esplosione della violenza nelle strade di tutto il Paese ha obbligato il governo a dispiegare misure di sicurezza senza precedenti per garantire l'incolumità di atleti e turisti. Il che ha causato il malcontento di una grossa fetta di popolazione, specie dello stato di Jalisco che nella sua capitale ospiterà la maggior parte delle partite, ma che sta ancora pagando i danni dell'ultima prova di forza tra la strategia del "Kingpin" e i cartelli. E mentre noi (non è vero noi no) guarderemo i mondiali convinti che il pugno duro abbia vinto e che la normalità sia stata ripristinata, sotto il tappeto dell'illegalità il potere del mercato delle droghe resta intatto e, con esso, resta intatta la volontà dei cartelli di mantenerlo, anche a costo della guerra. È finita? No, in apertura la notizia di una signora americana di ottant'anni che ha fatto commuovere il web.

A top South African cop, Major General Feroz Khan of Crime Intelligence, and a tobacco kingpin, Mohamed Sayed, plotted to “f….up well known anti-crime activist and Tax Justice SA Founder, Yusuf Abramjee. In this interview with Chris Steyn, Abramjee details a litany of shocking revelations in a 750-page bundle released by the Madlanga Commission. Abramjee vows not to be silenced. “General Khan has been subpoenaed to appear before the commission on the 1st of July. And I'm sure that he will come clean. He has to come clean because we cannot allow this lawlessness. We cannot allow this collusion. We cannot allow this intimidation to continue….You cannot be a policeman and a criminal.” Abramjee points out how revelations at the Madlanga Commission again show how rotten the criminal justice system is, but warns: “I believe it's only the tip of the iceberg. We have a major problem within the police service and also other arms of the criminal justice system. And we need to make sure that the recommendations and the suggestions coming out of the Madlanga Commission are implemented.”

Alain Matte is a Quebec-based illustrator, game designer, and founder of Zeronimo Games. After years of working on family-friendly brands and licensed properties, he decided to create something a little less wholesome: Animalcatraz, a sandbox prison brawler for 2–8 players where animal inmates fight, steal, trade, escape, and commit crimes to become the KINGPIN. Inspired by graphic novels, open-world video games, and a fascination with prison life from a safe distance, Alain spent years building the game's gritty setting, dark humor, and memorable cast of characters. Following a successful crowdfunding campaign, Animalcatraz is now heading toward production.

From USC walk-on to cartel middleman to federal inmate rebuilding his life one project at a time, this episode with Owen Hanson feels less like a crime story and more like a masterclass in what happens when ambition runs without guardrails.Known as “The California Kid” and “The Cocaine Quarterback,” Owen shares how a relentless drive for success first showed up on the football field at USC before spiraling into steroid use, smuggling, and eventually laundering millions in drug money tied to the cartel. What started with crossing the border to move steroids from Mexico evolved into a world of massive debt, high stakes pressure, and organized crime that ultimately led to a federal RICO indictment and a 21-year prison sentence in 2015.But this conversation isn't just about the rise and fall. It's about what happened after the collapse.While incarcerated, Owen refused to let prison become dead time. Instead, he turned it into a strange kind of laboratory for reinvention, earning his master's degree, writing a book, creating his business, Ice Protein, and even starring in a docuseries produced with Mark Wahlberg. Owen's story is chaotic, unbelievable, and at times cinematic, but underneath all of it is a deeper message: your lowest point does not have to be wasted time. Sometimes the same intensity that destroys a life can also rebuild one.Connect with Owen on InstagramDM me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen AD FREE & workout with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me chasingheroine@gmail.comSee you next week!

Nice! Time for another installment of HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT…?” a semi-recurring segment where we look at random characters that we encounter in the books we read. Lots of strange, unusual folks out here that you need to know about.Since we are putzing around with the Punisher, the most logical solution would be to talk about the LOBO BROTHERS, two brothers who are both high-class drug dealers AND mutant werewolves. Frank was once almost mind-controlled to assassinate them for the Kingpin but it didn't go well. Regardless, the brothers have some intriguing aspects about them, particularly the whole mutant lycanthropy deal that isn't entirely mutant but also mystical in some ways. We also spend some time on a few extremely tertiary Kingpin associates that find themselves jobbing pretty hard to Frank and Kingpin himself.Promo: CHECKERED PAST (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/checkered-past/id1350233450)Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter / BlueSky / Threads via @angryheroshawn and @JenStansfield and email the show at worstcollectionever@gmail.comAlso, get hip to all of our episodes on YouTube in its own playlist! https://bit.ly/WorstCollectionEverYTDownload the podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and wherever you get your favorite shows.

EPISODE SUMMARY The Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 finale gave fans a lot to process, from Matt Murdock's public downfall to Kingpin's collapse and the possible setup for a much bigger street-level Marvel story. Frank is joined by Megan from Vigilante Vibes and Thomas to break down what worked, what felt messy, and why this season may be the strongest version of Born Again so far. The conversation covers comic book connections like Devil on Cell Block D, Bullseye's future, Heather and Muse, BB's role as a rising journalist, and how Spider-Man, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, The Hand, Typhoid Mary, and even Mayor Luke Cage could factor into what comes next. The crew also digs into the courtroom scene, the hallway fight, New York as a living part of the story, and whether Marvel should keep Daredevil in his own corner or bring him deeper into the MCU. TIMESTAMPS AND TOPICS - 00:00 Introduction and Megan's First Reaction to Season 2 - 01:04 Devil on Cell Block D, Matt's Arrest, and Daredevil's Identity - 03:10 BB, Journalism, Peter Parker, and Street-Level Marvel Connections - 08:16 Bullseye, Mr. Charles, and Marvel's Grounded Villains - 11:26 Heather, Muse, Lady Muse, and Darker Comic Book Influences - 14:33 Spider-Man, The Hand, Elektra, and Season 3 Theories - 18:04 The Rose, Typhoid Mary, Buck, and Kingpin's Future - 19:38 Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk's Complicated Relationship - 23:10 Thomas Joins, CGI Talk, and the Finale's Action Scenes - 25:16 The Hallway Fight, New York Rising, and White Tiger - 28:35 The Courtroom Scene and Matt's Legal Strategy - 33:58 New York as a Character and the MCU's Street-Level Future - 44:00 Favorite and Least Favorite Moments From the Season - 52:00 Final Scores, Fan Reactions, Foggy, and Closing Thoughts KEY TAKEAWAYS - Megan felt Season 2 raised the stakes, leaned more into the comics, and showed the actors had a stronger grip on their characters. - The group spent a lot of time on Matt's arrest and the idea that the show may be setting up a Devil on Cell Block D style story. - BB stood out as one of the season's strongest additions, with the potential to become a major street-level MCU connector through journalism, Peter Parker, and the wider New York media world. - The finale's courtroom scene was one of the biggest highlights, giving Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio a strong showcase while pushing the season's themes about masks, power, and public truth. - The crew liked how the season made New York feel alive again, especially through the city rising against Kingpin's system and the anti-vigilante task force. - Final scores landed strong overall: Thomas gave the finale a 7 out of 10 but the season a 9 out of 10, Frank gave the season an 8 out of 10, and Megan gave it a 10 out of 10. QUOTES "Season two really upped the ante a lot, and it's a lot more comic accurate." "BB won the battle that killed her uncle." "Just because they both can aim good doesn't make them the same character." "This was the city of New York rising, all doing their own hallway scene." "The court scenes are so integral to who Daredevil is as a character." "This feels like a New York that is the home to heroes."

Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk finally go head-to-head in the explosive Season 2 finale of Daredevil: Born Again — but not in the way anyone expected. Courtroom warfare. Vigilante uprisings. Hallway fights. Jessica Jones returns. White Tiger rises. Fisk fully becomes Kingpin again before the eyes of New York City… and Matt Murdock makes the ultimate sacrifice by revealing to the world: “I am Daredevil.” This wasn't just a finale. It felt like a turning point for Marvel Television itself. We break down the courtroom showdown, Fisk's brutal rampage, Matt offering grace to his greatest enemy, the future of the Defenders in the MCU, Luke Cage's return, Bullseye's next move, Heather's terrifying transformation, and why this may be the greatest MCU TV episode yet. Hell's Kitchen just lit the way.

From the streets of the South Bronx to running one of the busiest weed operations in New York City — this is the story of Angel Diaz, aka Julito. In this raw and unfiltered interview, Julito breaks down how he was raised in the drug game, watching his mother move heroin and cocaine before stepping into the streets himself at just 12 years old. From selling crack and flipping weed to building a massive distribution network moving pounds daily, he shares how loyalty, hustle, and survival shaped his rise. But the game comes with a price. Julito opens up about violence, betrayal, federal indictments, and the moment everything came crashing down due to snitches and internal conflict. After years behind bars, he reflects on the truth most don't talk about: There's no glory in the street life. Go Support Julito!

Vincent D'Onofrio joins us for a deeply honest conversation about discipline, insecurity, and what it actually takes to last decades in this business. From wearing a full body Kingpin suit to embracing failure on set, Vincent explains why ego is useless, why struggle is the art, and why he has no intention of retiring at 66. He also opens up about being bullied as a kid in Florida and how those early wounds still fuel his performances today. Thank you to our sponsors: x __________________________________________________
