About this listen

This week, we start the multi part journey of a man who was played by Denzel Washington in a movie, and had Bob Dylan write a song about him. In part one, we learn the origins of his violent reactions, with beating up a teacher, then a preacher, and being turned in to the police, by his father for other crimes. His anger grows, as spends his time in reform schools & jails, until he finally finds boxing, while hiding from cops, in the Army!!


Beat up both a teacher & a preacher, knockout the heavyweight champion of the Army, and always seem to be in the wrong place, at the wrong time... at least according to police with "Hurricane" Rubin Carter!!


Check us out, every Tuesday!


We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!


Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman
