Podcast appearances and mentions of Bruce Springsteen

What do you get when you combine Vegas gambling drama, illegal cockfighting, Garth Brooks' billion-dollar music catalog, talking pets, celebrity chaos, and a healthy dose of completely unnecessary arguments? You get another perfectly normal day on The Rizzuto Show.In Episode 201, the crew dives into one of the wildest casino stories we've heard in a long time. A woman hits a jackpot in Pennsylvania, the lights flash, the bells ring, everyone celebrates... and then the police show up. Turns out she had voluntarily banned herself from casinos years earlier, creating one of the strangest gambling situations imaginable. Did she deserve the money? Should the casino have stopped her before she ever played? The debate gets surprisingly heated.From there, things somehow get even weirder. We head out to Nevada, where authorities busted a massive illegal cockfighting operation involving hundreds of birds, stacks of cash, and enough bizarre details to make everyone question humanity for a few minutes. Naturally, the crew also dives into the strange history of cockfighting and how it somehow became one of the oldest spectator sports in human history.As if that wasn't enough, the conversation takes a hard left turn into pet territory. If you could ask your dog or cat one question and get a real answer, what would it be? Are they happy? Do they secretly judge us? Are they plotting something? The gang spends far more time than anyone should discussing the emotional lives of household pets, and honestly, it might be the most important topic of the day.Meanwhile, Garth Brooks may be sitting on a music catalog worth up to $2 billion, which sparks a conversation about legendary artists cashing out. Bruce Springsteen, Queen, and now potentially Garth could be changing the future of music ownership forever.Plus, Lern delivers another packed Crap on Celebrities featuring Taylor Swift wedding rumors, Jeff Goldblum coming to St. Louis, Sydney Sweeney's upcoming Sleepy Hollow project, Mama June updates nobody asked for, Netflix documentaries, TV cancellations, celebrity birthdays, and one of the greatest collections of music mashups you'll hear all week.This daily comedy show proves once again that no topic is too ridiculous, no celebrity gossip is too random, and no argument is too dumb to spend twenty minutes discussing. If you're looking for a daily comedy show packed with weird news, pop culture commentary, hilarious debates, and the kind of chaos only The Rizzuto Show can deliver, you've come to the right place.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today's Headlines: The Traitor Fund is effectively dead for now — the DOJ said it "disagrees strongly" but will abide by the court's ruling, which is the closest thing to a clean win we've gotten in a while. Trump's America 250 birthday celebration continues to implode, with a competing Power to the People Festival announced for October 3rd featuring Springsteen, Joan Baez, and Dave Matthews, while the UFC fight at the White House is still on but now requires attending service members to meet a waist-to-height ratio under .55, and the National Park Service is spending $5 million on a no-bid contract to gold-plate four bronze horse statues near the Lincoln Memorial, which is giving Saddam Hussein's living room. Trump reportedly told Netanyahu on a bad phone call that "you're fucking crazy, you'd be in prison if it weren't for me, everybody hates Israel because of this" — accurate — and Netanyahu pulled back on planned Beirut strikes, with Lebanon's parliament speaker saying Hezbollah is ready for a full ceasefire with Israel, though the US bombed Iranian drone sites yesterday and a cargo ship was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz, so "ceasefire" continues to mean whatever anyone needs it to mean. Florida's attorney general sued OpenAI and Sam Altman for marketing ChatGPT without adequately warning of its dangers, citing its alleged role in mass shootings, suicide encouragement, and helping a murder suspect dispose of bodies — and Anthropic filed its IPO the same day at a $965 billion valuation, because timing is everything. And finally, a second man named Dan Sullivan entered the Alaska Senate race against incumbent Republican Dan Sullivan with no policies and no party affiliation, just a stated goal of unseating the other Dan Sullivan, which is either a Democratic ploy or the most chaotic campaign launch of the cycle.

We kick off Pride in Bruce Month with guest Nico Stratus, a Toronto-based writer originally from Canada's Yukon. Niko describes growing up in a music- and book-filled home, later leaving construction work after coming out as trans, and building a writing career through online essays, including an early op-ed that prompted an attempted libel threat. Nico recounts discovering Bruce Springsteen later in life—initially misreading Born in the U.S.A.—and connecting deeply to Bruce's earnestness, storytelling, and songs like “Dancing in the Dark,” “Thunder Road,” “Drive All Night,” and Nebraska tracks. Nico discusses their book, The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman, a memoir-mixtape where “Dancing in the Dark” becomes a pivotal catalyst for coming out, and shares where to find their work online.

Welcome multi‑platinum Nashville session drummer, Aksel Coe! Since moving to Nashville in 2018, Aksel has quickly made a name for himself as one of the city's most sought-after session drummers, having recorded on many of today's top country, pop, and indie tracks. Recent recording credits include Ella Langley (ACM Song of the Year 'Choosin' Texas'), Role Model, Holly Humberstone, Zach Bryan, Sierra Ferrell, Willow Avalon, K. Flay, Margo Price, Orville Peck, Sasha Alex Sloan, Cody Jinks, Sam Barber, Wyatt Flores, and Joshua Bassett, among many others. We dive right into Aksel's diverse musical upbringing and his journey from the West Coast to Nashville. Aksel shares invaluable advice and perspective on the home recording process — from creating efficient workflows on and off the drums, when and when not to cheap out on gear, and how to create and effectively market your own sample or loop pack. We discuss avoiding burnout, Nashville's shifting studio landscape, and of course, his acting debut in the 2025 biopic 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere.'

Host Jesse Jackson welcomes Los Angeles–based musician and music teacher Jake Cassman, who shares his path from growing up in Berkeley on classic rock and '90s alternative to discovering Bruce Springsteen later through a 2008 Obama rally performance, long bus rides through New Jersey, and years playing dueling pianos. Jake discusses teaching recording and songwriting at The Geffen Academy, the realities of freelancing (busking, weddings, improv), and how COVID ended live work and pushed him into a USC master's program that led to greater stability and new opportunities, including producing for the podcast Switched on Pop. He explains why he shifted from the Drunken Logic moniker to releasing music under his own name, introduces his album Idling High, performs “We All Look the Same,” and talks songwriting, storytelling, and favorite Springsteen albums, ending with the classic Thunder Road question. https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/PAN6239596108.mp3 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 02:00 Teaching Music in LA 03:00 TeachRock and Music Education 04:27 Writing and Community Programs 05:35 Growing Up With Rock 07:32 Finding Bruce Springsteen 09:14 Early Music Obsession 10:31 Dueling Pianos Stories 12:31 Requests and Deep Cuts 15:10 Freelance Music Career 17:38 Rebranding as Jake Kassman 19:17 Pandemic Shock and Pivot 22:41 Freelancing and Saying Yes 25:52 Better Paying Gigs 26:32 Idling High Origins 28:15 We All Look the Same 33:33 Storytelling Gets Universal 36:19 Bruce Road Trip Deep Dive 39:28 Next Creative Steps 40:40 Pop Podcast Tangent 44:00 Thunder Road Debate 47:53 Where To Find Jake 49:34 Final Wrap And Thanks Learn more about your ad choices.

Lilly recalls starting guitar at 12, overcoming shyness to perform, and beginning songwriting in middle school, describing how melodies and lyrics arrive together and how she captures ideas on voice memos. She explains how songs develop at different speeds, how albums reflect a specific time period, and how collaboration shapes unexpected recording outcomes, including working with her husband Colby on Forever and their project Domestic Bliss. Lilly shares early memories touring with her dad, favorite venues, thoughts on Napster's impact on making a living through touring, and influences like Pearl Jam and Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska.

Oil prices are currently declining. Mark questions why left-leaning media outlets highlight rising oil prices but rarely mention when prices fall. He discusses the case involving E. Jean Carroll and whether there is substantial evidence to support her claims about President Trump at a Bergdorf Goodman store in New York City spying on her. Mark notes that Carroll now faces lawsuits alleging perjury. Former President Joe Biden has filed a lawsuit against the US Justice Department to prevent the release of certain recordings. On CBS News Sunday Morning, Jill Biden recounted her concerns during the 2024 campaign, saying she thought Joe Biden was having a stroke. Mark interviews economist Steve Moore.  Steve discusses the impact of gasoline prices on inflation. He points out that, aside from gasoline, the US economy appears strong, citing a 4% GDP increase reported by the Federal Reserve. New data centers being built nationwide could advance early cancer detection and other technologies. Steve addresses concerns about artificial intelligence (AI), explaining both the opportunities and the need for caution. He also discusses the ongoing competition between China and the US over AI leadership.

   We begin the new week with a couple people me and my mom would like to slap (not that we would) and then move on to Trump's grand plan for Iran if they can get a deal signed.  It's something great for America and would represent a total reset of how a more peaceful world would operate.    Kansas Senate President Ty Masterson is running for governor and just got the endorsement from President Trump.  This is a really big deal.    Spencer Pratt is running for mayor of LA and has released new artwork on a campaign poster that mocks Barack Obama.  Bruce Springsteen is caught sitting down in concert and reading political slams at Trump and Elon off a teleprompter.    KU baseball is the most fun baseball team to watch around here since the Royals won the World Series in 2015.  Royals manager Matt Quatraro has absolutely had a terrible season leading this team and nothing worse that the use of his closer the past two days.    The Indy 500 was crazy great, the NY Knicks are creating the highest ticket prices in the history of the Finals and a man robs a bank for $1 for the craziest reason ever.

This week the guys break down “Crossfire,” the massive lead single from Brandon Flowers' solo album Flamingo.

It's an all new That Real Blind Tech Show and since we have a new intro for our show we got the entire gang here of Allison, Brian, David, Ed, and Jeanine.       We kick the show off discussing a Little Rock and roll and Billy Idol of all things. Which then leads to our first That Real Blind Tech show firing in quite awhile.   Brian discusses seeing Bruce Springsteen at Madison Square Garden. And the talk of the Boss then leads to us discussing our new theme song.   Eventually we get in to the news with a story for the ages as a beloved Walrus Penis Bone has gone missing from a bar in South Jersey. And we finally have an answer to the age old question, is it safe to use a laptop on your lap?        Will Privacy workers ruin Smart Glasses for people with disabilities?   Boston Logan Airport is launching a pilot  program of people getting to the airport 25 miles away and going through TSA there, what could go wrong with this?   We then discuss #GAAD and what has it accomplished over the past 15 years. Ed discusses the #GAAD event he participated in with Meta Labs.   In recognition of #GAAD Apple unveiled the new accessibility features coming in the next operating system.   We then touch on all the sink holes popping up in New York City.   We then dive in to Google Io, and start out discussing Vibe Coding apps and will this lead to further inaccessibility.   Google has multiple pairs of Glasses coming later this year, the first pair we discuss is the Project Aura Glasses which are more VR glasses.   Google will also be releasing an Audio only Gemini Glasses, but do not call them Glasses, they are Intelligent Eyewear.   Get ready to do everything in Google in the search box.   Google Gemini Agents will become more personalized.   At the end of the day all of these A.I. features and the usability of it all will come down to two things, the accessibility of it all, and more importantly, will you actually trust using it.   We then dive in to some new products we have gotten recently. Brian kicks it off discussing the DOT digital Business Card which you can buy on amazon. Brian then mentions he bought the Anker Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro Buds that just were released on May 21st, however, as they did not arrive until after we recorded, and the app and touch screen have several accessibility issues. The app and touch screen are pretty much unusable by someone who is blind. We will discuss this further on our next show. David then discusses the Pocket A.I. Recorder he just ordered. And while it is not a typical Allison return, she is gifting her current Mac Book Air and replacing it with the latest Mac Book Pro. Jeanine then discusses the Hapware Band she has ordered, so expect a lot of product discussions on the next few shows as we receive these products.   And it's more of What's Pissing Off Brian Now and Watcha Streaming, Watcha Reading.   To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at ThatRealBlindTechShow@gmail.com, join our Facebook Group That Real Blind Tech Show, join us on the Twitter @BlindTechShow

Joe breaks down Stephen Colbert's final show and argues that his cancellation had more to do with massive financial losses than politics. He reacts to Bruce Springsteen defending Colbert, Byron Allen's plans to bring comedy back to late night, and why audiences may be tired of political lectures instead of laughs. Joe also covers Jeff Bezos' comments on taxes, Amazon, New York City schools, billionaires, and why overtaxing successful companies drives business out of blue states. Plus, he discusses Spencer Pratt's rising campaign in Los Angeles, Wesley Hunt pushing back on Jim Crow comparisons, Thomas Massie's loss in Kentucky, Scott Jennings, Tucker Carlson, Memorial Day weekend weather, and the broken systems pushing voters away from the left.

Jimmy Kimmel just told his audience to never watch CBS again after Stephen Colbert's final show — because Byron Allen is replacing Colbert with a comedy show that has zero politics. Trump was asked about Colbert's exit, and his smile said everything. Meanwhile Brian Stelter eulogized Colbert as a "ministerial presence" and Bruce Springsteen ranted about freedom on the very network that let Colbert say whatever he wanted for six months.

Having already penned much-heralded books on both John Prine and Jason Molina, author Erin Osman is now tackling the wide genre of heartland rock — which she defines more by a spiritual and ideological geography, rather than a literal one. And while Bob Seger, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen and John Mellancamp round out the Mount Rushmore of sorts for this soundtrack of working class 80's middle-America, Osmon casts a needed spotlight on the likes of Bonnie Raitt, Tracy Chapman, Lucinda Williams and Bruce Hornsby within the pages of 'Won't Back Down,' available now wherever you get literature. On this week's show, Osman expands upon the relationship between art and province, and why the subject matter of 'Won't Back Down' stretches across generations. Plus, details on her current role on the editorial staff of the Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum in Nashville, and how her two decades as a music journalist have led her there. Visit erinosmon.com for more info, past works and a killer playlist of tunes featured in 'Won't Back Down.' Music on this episode is from The Pretty Flowers, available digitally or on vinyl at theprettyflowers.bandcamp.com or forgeagainrecords.bandcamp.com.

OG co-host Paul Kent rejoins Dave Hamilton to talk about how The Houserockers have stayed booked into their 27th year, and what your band can steal from their playbook. You’ll dig into the social media reality of 2026 (Reels are currently king), why your mailing list is the asset you actually own, and how to grow to 10,000 followers without losing your soul. Paul makes the case that if you want gigs, your band has to be a business, which means alignment on mission, passion, and musical style with the partners or employees standing next to you on stage. There’s nothing wrong with playing for fun, but go in eyes wide open about what you’re chasing. From there you’ll dive into the value of scarcity, Kevin Kelly’s thousand true fans, and why mixing up your setlists is one way to keep audiences coming back. Paul breaks down the current Houserockers formula (civic concert series, experiential marketing, and ticketed off-season events) and why aging-up audiences mean you have to market harder and talk to fans like Springsteen does: a lifetime conversation, all with individuals. You’ll also get the real talk on finding bandmates (Craigslist included), the Gig Gab bookable-band checklist, and Paul’s (joking?) pitch for two new show segments. Whatever your lane, Always Be Performing, and start treating every touchpoint like the gig it is. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 534 – Monday, May 18th, 2026 May 18th: National Visit Your Relatives Day 00:01:27 Guest co-host: Paul Kent The Houserockers in their 27th year! 00:04:21 Did someone call you an old man?!? 00:08:46 The Gig Gab social media approach 00:10:29 Your band can get 10,000 followers Reels are it…today. 00:13:37 Gain a mailing list 00:16:41 It's about the music business.

SCS42 – The Hooters in Glenside PA, Oct 2025 Rarely does a concert fulfill decades of anticipation, but Ken's long-awaited bucket list experience seeing the Hooters at the Keswick Theater in Glenside, Pennsylvania did exactly that, and it delivered in every possible way. Ken joins Joe and Paul to break down a performance that closed out the Hooters' European tour with a genuine homecoming celebration. Legendary Philadelphia DJ Pierre Robert introduced the band, setting the tone for a night that included fan favorites like "Dancing on the Edge" and **"Boys Will Be Boys."** The horn section alone was remarkable, adding serious depth to the sound. What makes the Hooters so compelling after all these years? The core lineup of Eric Bazilian, Rob Hyman, David Uossikinen Fran Smith Jr., and John Lilly brought the kind of tight ensemble work that rivals Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. (The reggae influences were apparently a highlight too.) Guitarist Tommy Williams handled multiple instruments throughout the night, keeping things fresh across both sets. Because this performance meant so much to Ken personally, his enthusiasm is genuinely infectious. Tune in to hear the full conversation.

On this episode, we say goodbye to Stephen Colbert as CBS rolls out the final week of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, including appearances from Jon Stewart, Steven Spielberg, Bruce Springsteen, David Byrne and a series finale that feels like the end of an era for network late night TV. We break down the emotional farewell, David Letterman's return to the spotlight, and what Colbert's legacy means for the future of late night. Plus, we reveal who the wealthiest late night hosts really are, California finally bans the endlessly annoying Kars4Kids jingle from the airwaves, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus reveals the massive behind-the-scenes Seinfeld argument that caused real tension on set. Late night TV, celebrity net worths, sitcom drama, TV nostalgia and one less earworm for humanity.

Amy Phillips and Emily Dorezas go full Darlings After Dark, defending The Valley as deliciously messy while dragging the season's men—especially Danny, who they call an emo teen in ripped jeans with a drinking problem and a talent for making Nia's already brutal postpartum life even worse. They praise Lala as the episode MVP for clocking Jesse's manipulation, backing Michelle in the Lacey blowup, and leveling Danny, while also side-eyeing Janet's nonstop stirring and the baffling cease-and-desist confusion. They laugh through San Diego trip chaos (train, safari-park misery, Jesse's “Ramona” room sprint) and toss in a ranty aside about a Springsteen rumor.BORN SHOES Go to https://www.bornshoes.com/  today for a 15% discount plus free ground shipping on all full-price shoes when you use my promo code DRAMA for 15% off and free shipping available exclusively to our listeners for just a limited timeLUMI GUMMIES Lumi Gummies are available nationwide!

Creativity through the lens of a musician and songwriter"Being creative is so lucky"Robin Batteau's“Banned in Sparta” is a new collaborative album of songs based on poems by Classical Greek poets and recorded by a number of friends: Tom Paxton, Eric Andersen, Livingston and Kate Taylor, Matt Nakoa, Robin Lane, 2-time Tony winning actor James Naughton and his gifted children Keira and Greg, plus Carolyn Hester.  Robin was inspired by an Ancient Greek History class he took when he returned to Harvard during the Pandemic to finish a degree he started in the 1960s. Robin earned the World Record of taking a 50-year break (between 1970 to 2021) to return to Harvard and finish his degree in 2022.   “Banned In Sparta” focuses almost entirely on poets from Ancient Greece between 700 and 400 BC.  One poet, Gaius Valerius Catullus (84 – 54 BC), as smitten with the ghost of Sappho as Robin or Alcaeus, is from Rome during Julius Caesar's reign, for whom Eric Andersen performs “Cross (of Gold),” an ode to interlaced and conflicted feelings, “Odi et Amo"— I hate and I love.The title “Banned in Sparta” finds its name from Archilochus, the Bob Dylan of the 7th century B.C., a warrior-poet so irreverent he was “Banned in Sparta.”  James Naughton sings the song “Archilochus Re-Deemed (I Am a Servant of the Lord God of War).” Kate Taylor performs “Telesilla's On the Wall,” from the female poet Telesilla, who led her fellow women warriors to victory against those same renowned Spartans. “The Greek Lyric poets performed live, and were the stars of their day,” says Robin. “They were singer/songwriters, they played the lyre (hence "Lyric") and danced around the stage like Tom Paxton and Taylor Swift.”Robin, who studied Ancient Greece and Integrative Biology at Harvard, found that most of what was left of the poems were fragments and myth, “So I mosaic-ed songs to reflect their expressions and intentions— who they were, and are to me.”  A range of female poets contributed to the lyrical history of Greece including Corrina, whose “In Her Loving Arms” is sung by Carolyn Hester, and Praxilla's “The Most Beautiful Thing in the World,” a hymn to Adonis, sung by Keira Naughton.  Sappho's writing inspires “Terra Cotta Heart,” sung by Robin Lane.  Livingston Taylor sings “My Sappho, Sweetly Smiling” from the smitten neighbor and rival Alcaeus. The fun and frolicking “Shake your Hair (You Thracian Filly),” sung by Tom Paxton. Pianist and folk singer Matt Nakoa offers a Bruce Hornsby-like treatment for Simonides of Ceos's “Theatre of Memory (Man of Gold).”    Sharing Grammy, Emmy, Clio, and Gold Record Awards and an Oscar nomination, Robin's recorded over a dozen albums with Pierce Arrow, David Buskin (Buskin & Batteau), and many others.  His jingles feature in long-running, award-sweeping advertising campaigns from "I'm Lovin' It" for McDonalds to “Can't Beat It” for Coca-Cola to "The Heartbeat of America" for Chevrolet. He's played his 1898 Scarampella violin with everyone from Yo-Yo Ma to Benny Goodman to Bruce Springsteen and has had his melodies sung by Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Judy Collins, Paul Newman, and more. His songs have supported charities and causes, including World Hunger Year, Ocean Alliance, Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign, and Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Gang Camp for kids. The Boston Globe defines his music with David Buskin as "Acoustic Heaven."https://robinbatteau.com/https://www.facebook.com/robin.batteauSend us Fan Mail

When Y-STR DNA testing revealed that the genetic material at the yogurt shop crime scene belonged to an unknown male — excluding all four accused men and over 130 other tested individuals — it should have been the end. Instead, it was the beginning of a 17-year limbo. Travis County DA Rosemary Lehmberg dismissed the charges against Springsteen and Scott in 2009 but issued a public statement affirming her belief in their guilt. No exoneration. No declaration of innocence. Just a release with conditions and a public accusation that followed these men for nearly two decades.The human toll extended beyond the courtroom. Michael Scott's marriage dissolved during incarceration. Maurice Pierce, who entered the system at 15 and spent three years jailed without trial, was fatally shot by Austin police during a 2010 confrontation at age 34. Forrest Welborn, never indicted despite being charged, lived under the weight of the accusation for over 25 years.Part 4 examines the period between release and exoneration — a phase of wrongful conviction cases that receives insufficient attention in criminal justice analysis. The formal declaration of innocence came in February 2026. For some, it came too late.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bob Spitz has written major biographies of the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, and now the Rolling Stones — but also, somehow, Ronald Reagan and Julia Child. In rock, his credentials were hard won: he started out hustling gigs for an unknown Bruce Springsteen for six years, moved on to handling Elton John's American business, and spent long enough in the world to find himself jamming with Paul McCartney and chatting with Bob Dylan on a stoop in the Village. The Reagan and Julia Child books are harder to explain, and perhaps that's the point—Spitz seems to do his best work when he has no business writing the book at all. Tyler and Bob discuss how the Stones became so great so quickly, what they added to the blues, how their melodies stack up against the Beatles', whether Exile on Main Street deserves its canonical status, which songs are most underrated, what Charlie Watts actually got out of playing in a rock band, the rise and fall of Brian Jones, how the Stones outlasted nearly everyone, the influence of Mick's London School of Economics training, why popular music has lost its cultural influence, what we should still be asking Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, whether the Beatles' breakup was good for the world, how senile Reagan really was in his second term and whether he was ever truly a communist, how good a cook Julia Child actually was, his next book on Lennon's second act, and much more.

The 2001 and 2002 trials in the yogurt shop murders case are a case study in how criminal prosecution can produce convictions without physical evidence. Robert Springsteen and Michael Scott were convicted of capital murder based solely on confessions that both men maintained were coerced. No DNA, fingerprints, or forensic evidence of any kind connected either man to the crime scene. The prosecution's strategy relied on graphic crime scene imagery to overwhelm jurors alongside the confessions.Critical constitutional violations compounded the problem. Each man's confession was used against the other without cross-examination rights, violating the Sixth Amendment's Confrontation Clause. The confessions contradicted each other on key details. Seven jurors later stated publicly they would not have convicted with the DNA evidence that emerged afterward. Springsteen, who was 17 at the time of the crime, received a death sentence later commuted under Roper v. Simmons. Scott, who had documented learning disabilities, received life.Part 3 of this series provides an in-depth examination of false confession psychology, interrogation methodology, and the structural mechanisms by which the criminal justice system produced death penalty convictions in the absence of corroborating evidence. A critical installment for understanding how wrongful convictions are built.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

No DNA. No fingerprints. No forensic link. No witnesses. The only evidence against Robert Springsteen and Michael Scott in the yogurt shop murders was their own coerced words — confessions extracted after days of interrogation by detectives who blocked the door and screamed questions from inches away. Springsteen was sentenced to death. Scott got life. The jury never learned that the detective who shaped the early case had been found responsible for seven prior false confessions. They never saw the DNA evidence that would later prove someone else was in that yogurt shop.Springsteen was 17 at the time of the crime. The state of Texas prepared to execute him for it. If the Supreme Court hadn't ruled on juvenile executions when it did, he would be dead — killed by the state for a crime committed by a serial predator who was already deceased by the time anyone identified him.Part 3 of the Yogurt Shop Murders series breaks open the trials, the confession psychology, and the constitutional failures that produced a death sentence from an empty evidence file. This is what happens when the system needs a conviction more than it needs the truth. And it came within one Supreme Court ruling of being irreversible.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Host Jesse Jackson welcomes Michael C back to discuss Jake Thistle's American Idol elimination, arguing Jake's strengths are his songwriting, frontman rapport, versatility in changing vocal styles across artists (Petty, Jackson Browne, Bruce, Phil Collins, John Hiatt), and strong character, with hopes for continued success and mention of an April 29 Monmouth University show with Vinny “Mad Dog” Lopez. They shift to Springsteen concerts, set lists, and the tour's anger/war-related themes, including opening with “War,” plus commentary that Bruce has been political since early songs. Michael then defends tribute bands as an affordable way to keep music alive, stressing quality performance, vocal range, and audience engagement, and prefers live performance over studio. Jesse closes with podcast contact info and other projects, including a John Hiatt podcast. 00:00 Podcast Welcome 00:55 Jake Idol Exit 02:22 Why Jake Connects 04:00 Influences And Praise 09:35 Jake Live Shows 12:06 Talent Beyond Voice 14:06 Bruce Tour Plans 15:44 Setlist And Politics 17:50 Tribute Bands Value 22:12 What Makes Tribute Great 25:11 Live Beats Studio 26:46 Cover Bands Setlists 28:58 Hooking New Fans 30:30 Tributes Keep Legacy 31:44 Politics And Critics 34:06 Proving Greatness Live 37:08 Respecting Tributes 38:13 Clive Davis Connection 40:54 Goodbyes And Contacts 42:57 Radio Hits Paradox 45:09 Podcast Housekeeping 47:03 Final Sign Off Learn more about your ad choices.

Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show is what happens when a daily podcast completely abandons structure and just lets the chaos drive the Ford Focus directly onto the sidewalk. And somehow? It works beautifully.The gang starts off talking about language, slang, and why the word “cool” has survived for over 100 years while every other trendy word died a painful MySpace death. From there, things immediately escalate into a passionate discussion about Bob Seger, Risky Business slides at weddings, and whether wedding invitations feel exciting… or like being summoned for jury duty with chicken parmesan.Then the show uncovers a completely real service where strangers can literally BUY seats at weddings. That's right — random people are paying actual money to attend weddings they were never invited to. Because apparently the economy has gotten so weird that “professional wedding guest” is now a side hustle. Naturally, the crew debates whether crashing weddings for entertainment is genius or a fast track to getting tackled by someone's drunk uncle named Gary.Things somehow become even more ridiculous when listeners introduce “Bruce Madness,” a March Madness-style bracket dedicated entirely to ranking the greatest Bruces of all time. This launches a full-blown debate featuring Bruce Willis, Bruce Springsteen, Bruce Lee, Bruce Wayne, Bruce Campbell, Bruce Dern, Bruce Almighty, and approximately 47 other Bruces nobody expected to hear discussed in a serious context today. The arguments become passionate. Alliances shift. Friendships are tested. Batman gets involved. It's basically CNN for people who peaked at Spencer's Gifts.Chris Kerber joins the show to weigh in on hockey, the Kentucky Derby, Blues draft strategy, Dylan Holloway's extension, and yes… even MORE Bruce opinions because at this point the show has fully committed to the bit. There's also incredible Derby talk involving dorm-room air mattresses, mint juleps priced like luxury handbags, and infield stories that sound like NASCAR collided with a wedding reception.And then there's the weird news story that somehow tops everything else: a woman named Wendy allegedly chasing a dirt bike kid down a sidewalk in a silver Ford Focus while drunk and trying to “socialize her dog.” Which sounds less like a legal defense and more like the title of a rejected Florida crime documentary. The crew breaks down the viral footage, questions humanity, and collectively realizes that every neighborhood has THAT person lurking nearby.This episode is loaded with the exact kind of sarcastic humor, ridiculous arguments, weird stories, celebrity commentary, and chaotic energy that make The Rizzuto Show one of the best daily podcasts and funniest morning shows around. If you like your entertainment loud, self-aware, slightly unhinged, and aggressively St. Louis, congratulations — you've found your people.Whether you came for the comedy podcast vibes, the weird news, the Bruce discourse, or just needed a break from reality for a couple hours, this daily podcast delivers the kind of nonsense that only The Rizzuto Show can produce.And seriously… Bruce Wayne might actually have a case.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
