WEBVTT - Introducing: #1 Dad

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:02.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm Gary Veeder and I have a new limited series

0:00:02.880 --> 0:00:04.840
<v Speaker 1>podcast called Number One Dad.

0:00:05.519 --> 0:00:08.440
<v Speaker 2>It may have been the greatest scam for a sports fan,

0:00:08.680 --> 0:00:12.400
<v Speaker 2>posing as a Sports Illustrated Kids reporter with your dad

0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:15.360
<v Speaker 2>and getting into all the games, not to mention the

0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:16.120
<v Speaker 2>locker rooms.

0:00:16.400 --> 0:00:18.840
<v Speaker 1>In the nineties, my dad and I ran a khan

0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:22.639
<v Speaker 1>for years where we snuck into the world's most prestigious arena,

0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:26.400
<v Speaker 1>New York's Madison Square Garden. They would give you credentials.

0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:29.360
<v Speaker 1>He's not yet to show up with credentials. Yeah. To him,

0:00:29.400 --> 0:00:31.480
<v Speaker 1>just a fun con that he could do with his son.

0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:35.520
<v Speaker 1>I love sports, he loved lying. Thanks to our scheme,

0:00:35.760 --> 0:00:38.519
<v Speaker 1>I interviewed some of the biggest athletes and celebrities in

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:42.280
<v Speaker 1>the world, even Michael Jordan. Your dad is the type

0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:45.440
<v Speaker 1>of person that likes an adventure and likes the possibility

0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:48.840
<v Speaker 1>of opportunity. As I got older, I learned this wasn't

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:51.839
<v Speaker 1>the only scheme my dad was pulling. He wants me

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:56.000
<v Speaker 1>to act like my injury is even worse for if payout.

0:00:56.400 --> 0:01:00.880
<v Speaker 1>He actually represented me. He's posing as my attorney. There

0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:04.280
<v Speaker 1>were moments where Manny would assume the role of undercover

0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:10.880
<v Speaker 1>police officer. My father's never ending string of lies ultimately

0:01:10.920 --> 0:01:14.440
<v Speaker 1>broke apart my family, and at fifteen years old, I

0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:18.480
<v Speaker 1>completely cut him out of my life. That was twenty

0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 1>four years ago, but I just had a son of

0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 1>my own, and it brought back tons of memories of

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>my childhood, along with tons of questions I wanted answered.

0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>How did my father become this scheming mastermind? Was he

0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:34.840
<v Speaker 1>like this with everyone? And is it possible after all

0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:38.640
<v Speaker 1>these years he's actually changed. I have no idea where

0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:40.959
<v Speaker 1>he lives or what he's up to, but my goal

0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:43.960
<v Speaker 1>with this podcast is to track him down and get

0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:48.880
<v Speaker 1>to the truth about who my father, Manny Veeder, really is.

0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Courthouse.

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:53.760
<v Speaker 1>My father was involved in a case from the early nineties,

0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just trying to get information. You better hope

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 1>that your dad doesn't find out about this before you're

0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:03.000
<v Speaker 1>ready to talk to him. I'm sorry you have reached

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:04.920
<v Speaker 1>a number that have been disconnected or it is no

0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:11.560
<v Speaker 1>longer in service. This is Number one Dad. Listen to

0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:14.760
