In the summer of 1985, Sean Penn's marriage to preeminent material girl Madonna was an epochal moment for ‘80s-era Hollywood. The bad boy from Bad Boys and the boy-toy pop superstar blissfully brought together the worlds of movies and music on a Malibu bluff overlooking the Pacific. But their subsequent attempt to make a movie together was anything but blissful. A wild film shoot in China would lead to even wilder things, like the time Sean dangled a photographer upside-down from a ninth-story balcony. Or the time he escaped a prison in Macau and had to have a pardon from the government negotiated by a former member of the Beatles. Or the time he spent in an American prison, where he found himself passing notes with a fellow inmate down the hall…one who happened to be one of the most notorious serial killers in history.

It's often said that love makes people do crazy things. For Toby Dorr, love led her to break the law. While operating a prison dog program, Toby met and fell in love with John Manard, a man serving a life sentence for a deadly carjacking. Feelings grew between the two, and on February 12th, 2006, Toby smuggled John out of prison. The pair was subsequently caught and arrested, but it was during Toby's prison sentence that she was able to find freedom. Author and criminal justice reform advocate Toby Dorr revisits the story of her daring prison escape and emphasizes the importance of giving people second chances.

A Note from James: So, I'm out rock climbing, but I really wanted to take a moment to introduce today's guest: Roger Reaves. This guy is unbelievable. He's arguably the biggest drug smuggler in history, having worked with Pablo Escobar and others through the '70s, '80s, and even into the '90s. Roger's life is like something out of a movie—he spent 33 years in jail and has incredible stories about the drug trade, working with people like Barry Seal, and the U.S. government's involvement in the smuggling business. Speaking of Barry Seal, if you've seen American Made with Tom Cruise, there's a wild scene where Barry predicts the prosecutor's next move after being arrested—and sure enough, it happens just as he said. Well, Barry Seal actually worked for Roger. That's how legendary this guy is. Roger also wrote a book called Smuggler about his life. You'll want to check that out after hearing these crazy stories. Here's Roger Reaves. Episode Description: Roger Reaves shares his extraordinary journey from humble beginnings on a farm to becoming one of the most notorious drug smugglers in history. He discusses working with Pablo Escobar, surviving harrowing escapes from law enforcement, and the brutal reality of imprisonment and torture. Roger reflects on his decisions, the human connections that shaped his life, and the lessons learned from a high-stakes career. Whether you're here for the stories or the insights into an underground world, this episode offers a rare glimpse into a life few could imagine. What You'll Learn: How Roger Reaves became involved in drug smuggling and built connections with major players like Pablo Escobar and Barry Seal. The role of the U.S. government in the drug trade and its surprising intersections with Roger's operations. Harrowing tales of near-death experiences, including shootouts, plane crashes, and daring escapes. The toll a life of crime takes on family, faith, and personal resilience. Lessons learned from decades of high-risk decisions and time behind bars.

Maze Prison was seen by many as Europe's most secure prison. It was a prison within a detention center within an army camp and believed to be completely impenetrable by any one prisoner. That was until September 1983, when the IRA successfully pulled off the largest prison escape in British and Irish History. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kevin-owens04/support

Rerun: One of Giacomo Casanova's most famous deeds was his daring midnight, cross-rooftop escape from the dreaded “The Leads” prison in Venice on the night of October 31st, 1756. Key to his escape plan was a Bible, a large iron bar and an oversized bowl of pasta. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly discuss why Casanova wasn't thrilled about being moved to a new jail cell with a better view; explain why he had a little nap right in the middle of his jailbreak; and consider the awkwardness of being such an indiscriminate shagger that you eventually accidentally end up in bed with your own daughter… Further Reading: • 'How Casanova's provocative memoir created a legend' (BBC, 2016): https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20161108-how-casanovas-x-rated-memoir-created-a-legend • 'Giacomo Casanova Breaks out of Prison' (Odd Salon, 2016): https://oddsalon.com/jan-5-1757-giacomo-casanova-breaks-out-of-prison/ • 'Fellini's Casanova - The Escape' (Produzioni Europee Associate, 1976): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccQ3f0agbU4 ‘Why am I hearing a rerun?'

Carl Panzram is one of the most interesting serial killers we've ever covered. He was incredibly self-aware. He knew he was bad. He didn't pretend, following his final arrest, that he hadn't done any of the horrible things he did. He only wished he could've done more horrible things. He truly hated the entire human race. Including himself. To the point that he when it was his time to die, he practically ran to the hangman's noose. True Tales of Hallow's Eve 4. Hope to see you there!

El Chapo's escape from Puente Grande prison in 2001 is a striking example of the intersection between organized crime and systemic corruption. Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, the notorious leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, meticulously planned his escape over several months, exploiting the pervasive corruption within Mexico's prison system. By bribing guards, administrators, and other key personnel, Guzmán effectively turned a maximum-security facility into his playground. On the day of his escape, hidden inside a laundry cart, he was wheeled through multiple security checkpoints, bypassing the facility's safeguards with the help of his corrupt network. His escape not only demonstrated his cunning and resourcefulness but also exposed the deep flaws within Mexico's judicial and penal systems, leading to public outrage and a massive manhunt.The implications of El Chapo's escape extended far beyond his own freedom. It underscored the power and influence of the Sinaloa Cartel, illustrating how deeply entrenched corruption could undermine the rule of law. The escape became a symbol of the Mexican state's ongoing struggle with organized crime and its inability to contain it, highlighting the challenges faced by a system compromised by greed and fear. This event was a wake-up call for the Mexican government and the international community, showcasing the urgent need for systemic reform to address corruption and strengthen institutions. El Chapo's escape remains a chilling reminder of the vulnerabilities in law enforcement and justice systems when pitted against powerful, well-funded criminal organizations.(commercial at 8:43)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
EPISODE #418-- We eschew all semblance of taste and decency to celebrate the life and death of Roger Corman (RIP) with the women-in-prison nightmare THE BIG DOLL HOUSE from 1971. It's got Pam Grier and that's about the best thing in the movie. The rest of is a fetid horrorshow of 1970's politics, exploitation aesthetics, and run of the mill schlock. It was a massive box office success. We also talk George Miller's THE ROAD WARRIOR (1981), Vera Drew's THE PEOPLE'S JOKER (2024), CAPTAIN MILLER (2024), as well as Hitchcock's THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH, along with GAMBIT and Kurosawa's SEVEN SAMURAI.

We head to the wide open spaces (cue The Chicks) of Wyoming! Lauren is up first with stories and legends surrounding Devils Tower, the first United States national monument, established in 1906. Long before it became a national monument, the massive structure was (and still is) a sacred place for many Native American Plains tribes. The legends that surround the enormous landform have been rumored to give the area a very spooky vibe. Next, Kenzie shares an old story that has turned into a Wyoming legend. There is no question that Walter Earl Durand led police on a wild goose chase through the mountains, and that he is responsible for the 5 murders that took place during the whole escapade. The legend comes from questions about who this man really was and what his motivations were for the daring escape.

Have you heard of the Briley Brothers? Three young brothers, and a teenage neighbor, went on a vicious murder, robbery, and rape spree in Richmond, Virginia in 1979. And then two of the brothers later planned a historic death row prison escape. Today's episode really again asks the question, "Are some people just born evil?" It sure seems ago with at least Linwood Briley. A wild story that I'm surprised isn't more commonly known. CLICK HERE TO WATCH MY NEW SPECIAL ON YOUTUBE!
