Do you ever have those moments where you think “man, I’m glad no one was around to see that?”  Well, the Shannon family of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo fame, has let viewers into their home with an unfiltered look at their lives and have many times left viewers wondering, “what did I just see?!?”  The matriarch of the family, Mama June Shannon, has made a name for herself with her questionable parenting skills and overall, pretty nasty...

Today, we’re diving into the wild, leather-clad legend of Jim Morrison—the man who fancied himself a poet, a prophet, and a psychedelic sex god all rolled into one. He was the voice of a generation, or at least the voice echoing through a lot of smoke-filled dorm rooms. Frontman of The Doors, self-proclaimed Lizard King, and walking contradiction, Morrison blurred the line between genius and trainwreck with every slurred monolo...

We’ve all heard the phrase, “don’t ever meet your heroes” and while it may ring true for some Hollywood elites, there are some exceptions to the rule.  It would depend on what kind of “meeting” you would want to have with today’s show subject, but for most, we would most likely ask to be dropped off after dinner and a couple drinks. Lawrence Taylor is considered by many to be the greatest defensive player the NFL has ever seen.  Hi...

Have you ever been around someone that just makes you nervous the whole time?  You never know what they are going to do, what they may say, or what kind of trouble YOU may get in just by being around them.  From the image he’s created over the years, Conor McGregor definitely seems like someone you would want to be on your toes around.  He’s knockout out many of people, legally, in the octagon, becoming one of UFC’s most celebrated...

Back in the 80’s you had the surfer bros out in California and of course the Wall St. bros on the east coast. Time evolves and we had to endure the popped-collar Jersey Shore bros, and most recently we may have run into the most annoying version of them, the crypto bros. And this show is about none other than the king of the crypto bros, Sam Bankman-Fried.  SBF (as the bros call him) made a massive splash as he took his company, FT...

It appears history lets a few folks slip through the cracks when it comes to who makes the history books.  The show subject today lived a life that’s straight out of a James Bond movie – espionage, bribes, business deals and of course, multiple women. But it seems as though most of the public has never heard of this dude.  Armand Hammer worked directly with 7 presidents, along with Russian leaders, to grow diplomacy and his persona...

It couldn’t be truer that people pay attention to who the President, King, or Prime Minister is hanging out with.  It would make sense that the people closest to the person in charge would have at least a voice in the ear of the person calling the shots.  We have an interesting situation going on now, but imagine if the person closest to the person in charge of an empire was a self-proclaimed mystic and faith healer?   What would i...

We always like to start the year off on a positive note and this show subject most certainly fits the bill.  Betty White had a career in show business that lasted seven decades.  She was one of America’s sweethearts and won over the hearts of many in her prime-time roles.  Just when you thought she was in her twilight years, she had a career resurgence like we’ve never seen before.  She entertained us until she was in her 90’s and ...

There is a reason that the story of Robin Hood is a classic and appeals to the masses as a story of one that steals from the rich to give to the poor.  If you’re not part of the ultra-wealthy, odds are you feel at least a little slighted by “the man” at times.  Well, once in a while, one of “the men” truly does work to give more to those he serves. But as time has shown, as will this show, the ability to stay true to your values of...

We see careers in the acting world come and go at a rapid pace.  If you ask any random person to name their favorite 10 actor or actresses, they will most likely struggle to even name 10 at all.  But the subject of today’s show will most likely make the top ten list for a lot of people and has made his name one to remember.  Jim Carrey blasted on to the scene when he joined the cast for In Living Color and it blossomed into a movie...

We’ve all had that experience in life, when what you get is way different than what you thought you were getting into.  It’s fair to make some assumptions, and when I see a band that has spiked shoulder pads, explosions everywhere, and their faces painted, I assume what I’m about to hear is going to be loud and wild.  And then KISS begins to play….and everything you assumed goes right out the window. The theme seems to trickle down...

It seems like some people “have all the luck” when it comes to intelligence, charisma, and good looks.  Ball all that up, throw in the fact that this show subject is the greatest quarterback to play in the NFL, and you have the ever-charmed, often-despised, Tom Brady.  Brady went from a low-level draft pick out of Michigan to the elite player we all know, who holds the record for most Super Bowl victories and is considered the GOAT...

What’s up AHC nation, we hope you are doing well.  We have a special treat for you this week as we are doing a show swap with our friends over at Midnight Facts for Insomniacs.  In the episode, Shane and Duncan are going to do their thing and dive a topic popular among stoners and 80% of women, Astrology.  They do a little friendly debunking of some of the aspects of Astrology, and as always, keep you entertained and learning a lit...

There have been many celebrities to lose their lives to unfortunate auto accidents, but there is  one rumored accident that had potential to change the world of music forever.  In 1966, while working on the Sgt. Peppers album, Paul McCartney was involved in an auto accident.  While it's fairly obvious Paul is fine and well, the rumor that Paul had died surfaced and took the world by storm for a short time.  Is there any truth to th...

There are some celebrities and businesspeople that make where they are from part of their identity.  Jay-Z and New York, Mark Wahlberg and Boston, and who can forget Abe Froman the Sausage King of Chicago.  But as we embark on our 5th year of doing our show, we are going to pay homage to one of the icons of our city.  Ted Turner and Atlanta.  Ted followed loosely in his father’s footsteps but built a cable empire that changed the w...

Well, we hit a bit of a milestone with this show.  Not only has this been our most requested show subject, but we’re also celebrating our 5-year anniversary!  Thank you to all of you that listen and give us your support, it means the world to us!

Now, on to business… We’ve talked about royalty on our show, we’ve talked about people being the “greatest of all time” at their particular craft, but it’s hard to deny that Michael Jackso...

A lot of our show subjects have many, often well publicized incidents that make it no surprise that they find themselves in our courtroom.  There are also a lot of shows that we’re sure listeners see the subject and think, who?  Well, most of you have seen Terrence Howard on television and the movies, but today we’ll dive into one of the more, we’ll just say, interesting, people we’ve talked about on our show.  When a celebrity div...

Tiger Woods lit the golf world on fire in the mid 90’s and his meteoric rise to the top of golf was something the sport hadn’t seen before.  He brought a completely new audience to the game and kickstarted a renaissance that golf is still reaping the benefits of today.  He maintained a squeaky-clean public image, until that all came crashing down in one of the most publicized, extra-marital affairs of all time.  But with all the ac...
