Got a medical procedure coming up. 40 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 2: Not the major gonna be okay, but it's just messing 41 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: up the schedule here a little bit. That means that 42 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 2: I'm recording this two days before its release. It's the 43 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 2: morning after the Boston Celtics just won their eighteenth title, 44 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 2: and I'd prefer today to sort of let my brain 45 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 2: hang out in the bliss of yet another Boston sports 46 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 2: team championship, thirteen of them, by the way, in the 47 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,679 Speaker 2: last twenty four years. Suck at New York, suck at LA. 48 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: But I can't do that because Justin Timberlake just got 49 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,959 Speaker 2: arrested last night for a DWI. And that's all people 50 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 2: in my algorithm and text threads want to talk about, 51 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: not all of it. There's some there's some good Celtics 52 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 2: talking there. Those of you who messaged me about the Celtics, 53 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: thank you very much. Not that I had anything to 54 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 2: do with the win, but. 55 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: It's you know, these things happen. 56 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 2: Your team wins, team from your hometown wins, and it's 57 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 2: just like, I don't know, it's this bonding thing that happens. Obviously, 58 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 2: it's a very obvious thing, and you want to kind 59 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 2: of enjoy it. But this arrests, this JT arrest, I'm 60 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: annoyed by it. It's just now a DWI that's serious, 61 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: of course, but in the grand scheme of musicians, athletes, 62 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: and entertainers getting arrested for their actions behind the wheel 63 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 2: of an automobile. This seems kind of basic. JT was 64 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: arrested in Sag Harbor on Long Island. He refused the breathalyzer. 65 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: He reportedly stunk of alcohol. He claimed he had one martini. 66 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: He looks wasted in his mugshot. Now I know full 67 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: well it's possible to be wasted from one Jin martini, 68 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 2: especially if I'm making them or my dad. But anyways, JT, 69 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 2: like I said, he looks wasted in the mugshot, but 70 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: it's just a mug shot. New details are coming out 71 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: about his erratic driving, however, before getting pulled over. But really, 72 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 2: at this point, there's a lot of speculation, and of course, 73 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 2: like I said, my fees and dms are filled with 74 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 2: JT news today and I'm getting a lot of questions 75 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 2: about what it means. It's obvious why rock star entertainer 76 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 2: gets popped disgraceful minds want to know. I get it, 77 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 2: and I can appreciate it. But you know, the Celtics 78 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 2: eighteen banners. 79 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: It's kind of where my head's at today. 80 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 2: Speaking of which I should apologize to another JT Jason Tatum. 81 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: No one was a bigger doubter of Jason Tatum than 82 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 2: I was. No Boston fan. Anyways, I'm on record heavily 83 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: criticizing Tatum for not showing up when it counts, for 84 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: being a modern day two thousand and four Alex Rodriguez, 85 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: a pre two thousand and six Peyton Manning, not even 86 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 2: a twenty eleven Lebron James. Basically a guy I who, 87 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: in my estimation, turtled when the going got tough, when 88 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: the real champions show up and gritted out and put 89 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 2: their teams on their backs and dig in and got 90 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 2: out tough wins when it matters most. I had yet 91 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 2: to see Jason Tatum do that. In fact, I'd seen 92 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 2: him do the opposite. Okay, my annoyance was so strong 93 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 2: with Jason Tatum's unrealized potential that I was briefly driven 94 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 2: into the arms As many of you know, I was 95 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 2: briefly driven into the arms of Jimmy Butler, and for 96 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 2: half a minute thought that I was going to become 97 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: a Miami Heat fan. Up until this last NBA Finals game. Okay, 98 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 2: Tatum up to this point was living up to my 99 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: depiction of him, all right, don't talk to me about 100 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: his overall playoff stats. Brown was the one who led 101 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 2: the team, Jalen Brown in games one, two, and three. 102 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 2: Tatum didn't play well in Game four. I understood why 103 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 2: the rest of the team fell short, but I felt like, 104 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 2: given tatum struggles in the first three games, he, as 105 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 2: a real champion, should have put the team on his 106 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 2: back for Game four and executed the sweep. And I 107 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 2: was fully expecting Tatum to its turtle again in game five, 108 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 2: but the dude showed up man's size and put the 109 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 2: final dagger into Dallas And I was wrong. Okay, I 110 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 2: was wrong, but I'm not wrong about justin Timberlake. This 111 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: is a boring story. 112 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: People are going to. 113 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 2: Freak out because JT is a huge name, and then 114 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 2: no one's gonna remember this in the next forty eight hours, 115 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 2: which I suppose isn't a bad thing. 116 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: But for some. 117 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 2: Perspective, let's quickly look to history for just a second 118 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: here in the present, because that's kind of what we do. 119 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: Let's look to the past to understand the present, all right. 120 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 2: In nineteen eighty four, Vince Neil from Motley Crue got 121 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: wasted and went for a. 122 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,119 Speaker 1: Ride with his buddy Razzle from Annoy Rocks. 123 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: Vince Neil crashed his car and killed his friend, and 124 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 2: Vince got off with a fine and a manslaughter charge 125 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 2: in twenty fifteen Sugar Night. 126 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: Sug Night is currently in jail for. 127 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 2: Running over two people in twenty fifteen in his car 128 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 2: and killing one of them.

I like 175 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: the golfer Roger Clemens, Pete Rose, Lawrence Taylor, Mike Tyson. 176 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 2: I've been around Mike Tyson before. I don't want to 177 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 2: be anywhere around Mike Tyson anymore. Give me these three 178 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 2: disgraced athletes that you're hitting the links with in our 179 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 2: fantasy charity golf tournament. 180 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: The worst they do. Keep in mind, the worst they. 181 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 2: Do, the more they have to donate to the victims 182 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 2: of their heinous crime. Six one seven nine oh six 183 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,439 Speaker 2: six six three eight voicemail and text. I'll be back 184 00:09:39,440 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 2: in a flash. All right, we are back, and I 185 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 2: want to talk about bad Lands. Bad Lands was, of course, 186 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 2: the spinoff show to Disgraceland that we launched a few 187 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 2: years ago. For those of you who have listened to 188 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 2: both shows, thank you. But you've probably noticed recently that 189 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 2: the bad Lands feed has looked a little different. 190 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: Here's the deal. There were two things to play. 191 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 2: One was that it didn't make sense anymore to limit 192 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: Disgraceland to just music. Music will always be my bread 193 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 2: and butter. It'll be the bread and butter of our team. 194 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 2: I work with a bunch of musicians, all right, That's 195 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 2: basically who makes up double Elvis or a bunch of 196 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 2: fans of music. However, it just became too much to 197 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 2: be running these two shows, running these two feeds where 198 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,719 Speaker 2: the subject matter was actually very similar, the production was 199 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: very similar, the presentation was very similar, and my interest. Frankly, 200 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 2: they encompass not just like I mentioned before, not just music, 201 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 2: not just Hollywood, not just sports, all of it, and 202 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 2: a disgrace is the disgrace is a disgrace, so disgrace Land. 203 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,599 Speaker 2: From now on, all of these subjects will be available 204 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 2: in the Disgraceland feed. For those who are wondering where 205 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: all the Badlands episodes have gone, We're going to continue 206 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: to roll these out as remastered episodes of Disgraceland. These 207 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: are being slightly reproduced, slightly rewritten, sometimes significantly. Actually I 208 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 2: didn't write a lot of those bad Lands episodes, and 209 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 2: I'm injecting myself into some of the archive episodes here 210 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 2: in my point of view, a little bit more strongly, 211 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 2: making them more Disgraceland, so that they will feel fresh, 212 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 2: they will feel like disgrace Land episodes, which they are okay, 213 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 2: like this week's episode on OJ Simpson and the recent 214 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 2: episodes on Marilyn Monroe in Heath Ledger. The simple fact 215 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 2: of the matter is we have a lot of new 216 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 2: listeners coming in. We're still growing despite being in this 217 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: game now for five years, and a lot of people 218 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 2: have no idea of our archive Disgraceland, nevermind in bad Land, 219 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 2: So we're rolling it all into one. Like I said, 220 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,079 Speaker 2: it's just more manageable. For those of you who are 221 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: new to this Disgraceland feed who were only Badlands listeners, welcome. 222 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: We have a rich, lush archive for you to get 223 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 2: into here over one hundred and fifty episodes. I hope 224 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 2: you dig in. I hope you stick with us. We 225 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 2: have a lot in store for you guys coming up 226 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 2: in the future as well. Episodes on Bobby Brown, The 227 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 2: Talking Heads, Alfred Hitchcock, Donnie Hathaway, Al Pacino, Metallica. I'm 228 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 2: about to finish this episode. I'm writing it this week 229 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 2: on Lona del Rey Blink one eighty two Stoked. So 230 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 2: lots of stuff. Badlands is Disgraceland. It's all happening here 231 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 2: in this feed. Make sure you are following along, make 232 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 2: sure you are subscribed, because this is where you're going 233 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 2: to get all of our immersive storytelling from the dark 234 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: side of entertainment. All right, let's talk sources for this 235 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: week's episode on OJ Simpson. First of all, the OJ story, 236 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 2: the murder of his ex wife Nicole Brown Simpson along 237 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 2: with her friend Ron Goldman, subsequent trial and acquittal of 238 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 2: OJ Simpson for those murders. It is one of the 239 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 2: biggest and most well known stories of our lifetime, or 240 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 2: my lifetime, I should say, also one of the most documented. 241 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 2: It was headline news for years, quite literally, and to 242 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 2: that end, we had great source material to pull from 243 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: to make this episode. Now, I did not want to 244 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 2: make a this is the story of what happened to 245 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 2: OJ Simpson when he got arrested and charged with murder 246 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 2: and went to trial. That's been done so many times, 247 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 2: and frankly, it's been done in incredible ways. One of 248 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 2: the greatest documentaries that I've ever seen is on this 249 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 2: subjects from the thirty for thirty series called OJ Simpson 250 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:39,479 Speaker 2: Made in America. 251 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. Again. 252 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: This is not the story we told, but we did, 253 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 2: of course use this documentary for research. We also used 254 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 2: the scripted FC series to People versus OJ Simpson American 255 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,439 Speaker 2: Crime Story, which I thought was fantastic. What we wanted 256 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 2: to do is tell you this OJ Simpson story from 257 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 2: a fresh angle, so as you know, if you've listened 258 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 2: to the episode already. To do this, we decided to 259 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 2: frame the narrative around the brazen two thousand and seven 260 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: heist that OJ Simpson orchestrated and took part in. This 261 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 2: is obviously after the murders, but this fascinated us because 262 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 2: you know, it's it's kind of OJ Simpson caught up 263 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: in his own version of a Coen Brothers movie with 264 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 2: these bumbling idiots for a crime crew who they're storming 265 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: this hotel room in Las Vegas trying to steal sports 266 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 2: memorabilia from these kind of low rent memorabilia dealers. It's 267 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 2: just it's so seedy and so Las Vegas. It's just 268 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 2: it's it's wild in its own way, and it felt 269 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: like a really great lens to use to look back 270 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 2: at the double murder of Nicole Brownsons and Ron Goldman 271 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 2: and OJ's trial and all that. 272 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: We just wanted to do it differently. 273 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 2: Like I said when I when I heard about this story, 274 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 2: it struck me as a Coen Brothers type of thing 275 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 2: because of the idiocy involved, and of course the violence 276 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 2: and the grime and the crime and the darkness. So 277 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 2: check it out if you have not already. Six one 278 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 2: seven nine six six six three eight.

I'm interested to hear who you're recommending, 283 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 2: I asked.
