This week, we find Billy Martin at the brink of a triumphant season, that would cement his managerial legacy. The problem is, there's going to be much drama, in the process.

Billy is starting to unravel! All...
This week, we take a break from our Billy Martin series, to bring you a bonus episode, that is more relevant than ever, right now. Mixing otherwordly talent, with the black cloud of gambling allegations, hanging over head, makes this as crazy a story as we've talked about. Did the greatest talent, in the game of baseball, the modern day face of game, actually commit acts that should have him banned for life, while everyone is happy...

Billy will never learn!
Get fired, even though you're the AL...
This week, we follow Billy's exploits, as his teams perform wonderfully, on the field, but it's still not enough to keep him from getting repeatedly fired. Why? Because he fights with team owners, opposing players/managers/fans & umpires. He even beats one of his own players, so badly, that they have to be hospitalized for 20 stitches to their face! Then, he gets arrested for actually doing something admirable! Wild as always!
Ta...

This week, we catch up with Billy, as he is forced back into the Army, missing an entire season of Yankee baseball. He is also labeled as a "troublemaker", and a "bad influence" on teammates like Mickey Mantle, just because they go out drinking, every night, and a major brawl happened to beak out at the Copacabana, at Billy's birthday party! He fights, he scraps, and he gets traded, all over the league!
Watch the Yankees play a w...

This week, we start a series on one of the most colorful characters in sports history. A hard drinking brawler, who knew nothing but success in baseball. We start this tale, with Billy's dad, taking off, while he was a baby.

This week, a man who never quite made the impact he wanted to, in the NFL, despite his Notre Dame pedigree. Whenever his talent would get him to a good spot, he'd screw it up, with his actions. He was out of the NFL, by age 25, and ready to start being an even worse person. The prison sentence he's currently serving, is for a crime that was so horrific, the judge wished he could sentence him to even more time. A true monster!
Sta...
This week, a longtime UFC mainstay, and notoriously colorful character, who always seems to say the exact wrong thing. Mostly, at the exact wrong time. Training alongside his brother, from a young age, he knew his path to success would be through fighting. Sometimes, that fighting isn't in the ring. Sometimes, it's out in the street, or backstage at an event. It could happen anywhere. He didn't commit the most "crimes", but his gen...
This week, a major league baseball pitcher, who had a hard time staying on one team, or even in one league. His journeyman career took him all over the world, but his troubles started at home. He traded in one wife, for a new wife, costing himself millions of dollars. Opened a failed bar, that the "Bar Rescue" tv show couldn't save. But his real trouble started when he decided to shoot his in laws. A murder trial reveals an open ma...
This week, we tell the story of a man who never had much to call his own. Neglected, and abandoned at a young age, he grew up with no family. Luckily for him, he had basketball skills. Enough skills to make him only the 11th player to be drafted to the NBA, out of high school. Only problem is, he wasn't prepared for the league, or life. Next thing you know, he's covered in green war paint, and telling cops that he's "an Indian, fig...
This week, we check out a former Dallas Cowboy great, who started out by being given up by his mother, at age 2. He grew up in rough conditions, only to come out the other side as a star.

We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
