Cocaine In My Shoes, Needles In My Veins - Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 2

Feb 17th, 2026 1:31 AM

This week, we finish up this wild story with Steve, getting back into the NHL, only to barely play, and end up unemployed. He fills in this employment gap by going down to Bolivia, and trying to smuggle cocaine into Canada, with a wild & fun excuse. He does his prison time, only to get back into drugs, and end up in more trouble, including running an "escort service" that definitely wasn't legal. All of this, and his sad, pitiful ending!   Keep telling NHL teams that you're ready to stop getting in trouble, tell a judge that you didn't know there was a lot of cocaine, in your shoes, and destroy your body with drugs with Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 2!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Bald & Belligerent - Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 1

Feb 10th, 2026 1:40 AM

This week, we look at a hockey player, who was a little too violent & short tempered, even for hockey. He never had a goal, other than playing hockey, and he achieved that by being drafted in the 1st round. But the only potential he ever lived up to was his potential for violence. He attacked opposing players, fans, coaches, trianers, timekeepers, and even the police! This temper leads to obvious arrests, and a big future of crime, ahead of him!!   Be terrified of your overinvolved father... until you beat him up, use your hockey stick as just an extension of your hand & hit people with it, and tell everyone that you're on your best behavior, then try to start a riot with Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 1!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

On Top Of Creep Mountain - Charles Barrett

Feb 3rd, 2026 1:30 AM

This week, we look at an absolutely horrible human being, who competed in a sport that we've never talked about! Rock climbing! He was an idol of other climbers, as he made his own routes up mountains, and published several books about climbing. But under the surface, there was a violent sexual predator. He beat women, then threatened them if they dared report it. He sexually attacked women, and stalked them into hiding. He may have even assaulted dozens more, while climbing. Did he get what he deserved??   Compete in a sport, where getting stoned before participating in it seems standard, turn into a different, violent person, with just a pause, and be the menace of an entire region's women with Charles Barrett!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Not Consensual - Jim Krakouer

Jan 27th, 2026 12:07 AM

This week, we look at an Autralian football player, who came from hard times, and only made things worse for himself. He was an aggressive player, at a time when it was perfectly acceptable to hurl racial slurs upon a field of play. But none of that holds an answer to why he did the things he did. From a youthful conviction, for a reprehensible crime, to having an ongoing sexual "relationship" with a 14 year old girl, to having enough meth to keep all of Australia hyper, he couldn't have gone more wrong!   Be on a football team with your brother, claim your sexual relationship with a 14 year old was "consensual", and never take a bit of responsibility for anything with Jim Krakouer!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Don't Care About No Drugs - Daniel Straus

Jan 20th, 2026 1:45 AM

This week, we look at an MMA fighter, who had it rough & practically raised himself. He was a champion wrestler in high school, but didn't start his MMA career, until after a stint in prison. He also had a stint at Steak & Shake, making getting punched in the face sound like a good option. His career was decent, but he could never get out from under his legal problems. From robbery, to drug charges, to terrible driving, and a horrific alleged attack on his ex-girlfriend, he's a bit of a mess!!   Fight your way out of Steak & Shake, be thrown from a moving motorcycle & almost killed, and make sure to blame anybody but yourself for your problems with Danny Straus!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!
