    Pod Crashing Episode 356 NY Magazine's Steve Fishman From The Podcast The Burden
    Dec 31 2024
    Pod Crashing episode 356 with Steve Fishman from the podcasts The Burden. Detective Louis N. Scarcella was a legendary figure in New York City during the '90s. In a city overrun with violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. But the story changed when a group of convicted murderers-turned-jailhouse lawyers made a startling discovery that linked all their cases: Scarcella was the cop who helped put many of them away. They made a vow: Take down Scarcella. And with the help of a relentless New York Times reporter, they did just that. Thirty years later, 20 people who Scarcella helped put behind bars have since walked free. In the media, he's known as the disgraced, rogue cop who hoodwinked an entire system. But was this really the workings of one person? "We spent hundreds of hours talking with witnesses who were coerced, jailhouse lawyers, outraged attorneys, and righteous cops. Scarcella insists he didn't do anything wrong. And after finally tracking him down, he agreed to take us into the belly of the beast... where justice is done (and undone)."

  • Killer Cocktails From Holly Frey And Maria Trimarchi

    Killer Cocktails From Holly Frey And Maria Trimarchi
    Dec 31 2024
    What pairs well with the story of an identity-shifting murderess who burned her house down to cover up a crime? A fiery jalapeño cocktail (or mocktail), of course. How about the Charles Dickens super-fan who took things a bit too far? That one's less obvious, so you'll have to consult page 44. From poison to pirates, identity theft to art heists, KILLER COCKTAILS has a cocktail - and mocktail option - to pair with 144 of the wildest, wackiest historical crimes that co-authors Holly Frey and Maria Trimarchi could dig up. A small sampling of the menu: The Legend of Locusta, the Imperial Poison Maker of Ancient Rome (p20) and cocktail: The Botanist's Latte (p22)This Just In: Elizabeth "Betty" Bigley Was Not Really the Daughter of Andrew Carnegie (71) and cocktail: The Calling Card (74)Jeanne de Clisson and Her Bloodthirsty Revenge (108) and cocktail: Red Sails (110)William Cunningham, the "Bogeyman" of Cincinnati (163) and cocktail: Corpse Juice (165)The Day the Dali Escaped From Prison (240) and cocktail: Dali's Antics (242) Why the combo of baddies and booze? The authors explain: "In some instances, the cocktail is a way to lighten the mood after a particularly grueling or grisly tale. In others, it's about celebrating someone who bypasses the law for the common good, or even someone who has transitioned from villainous to . . . less villainous? More than anything, it's about finding ways to give stories from the past a festive, exciting, and new spin-and have fun doing it." The beloved co-hosts of iHeartPodcasts' "Criminalia" (both) and "Stuff You Missed in History Class" (Frey) bring their trademark humor and deep research - as well as their mixology skills - to the project. But as they write in the introduction, "It's OK to play. Tweak your drinks to your tastes! If you make a bad drink you'll only mourn the wasted ingredients. There's no such thing as cocktail jail and the family will not seek revenge. usually."
