  • We’ve all had that experience in life, when what you get is way different than what you thought you were getting into. It’s fair to make some assumptions, and when I see a band that has spiked shoulder pads, explosions everywhere, and their faces painted, I assume what I’m about to hear is going to be loud and wild. And then KISS begins to play….and everything you assumed goes right out the window. The theme seems to trickle down to its members of the band and the subject of our show today, co-founder and bassist, Gene Simmons. Simmons and his weirdly long tongue has found a way to stay relevant long after his famous band’s cycle had run it’s course. The stories around Simmons, the band, and the days on the road are epic, but I’ll go ahead and tell you that the book doesn't always fit the cover. What was Gene’s upbringing like? How did he get into music and the weird look the band used? And what does he exactly do with that long tongue? We’ll dive into all this and more in the Gene Simmons episode of AHC Podcast.

  • It seems like some people “have all the luck” when it comes to intelligence, charisma, and good looks. Ball all that up, throw in the fact that this show subject is the greatest quarterback to play in the NFL, and you have the ever-charmed, often-despised, Tom Brady. Brady went from a low-level draft pick out of Michigan to the elite player we all know, who holds the record for most Super Bowl victories and is considered the GOAT of pro football. But his controversies haven’t avoided the headlines. What was it like when his girlfriend found out that his recently dumped girlfriend was pregnant? What was it like in the Brady household growing up? And many fans have had their hearts ripped out of their chest by this man? We’ll dive into all this and more in the Tom Brady episode of AHC Podcast.

  • There have been many celebrities to lose their lives to unfortunate auto accidents, but there is one rumored accident that had potential to change the world of music forever. In 1966, while working on the Sgt. Peppers album, Paul McCartney was involved in an auto accident. While it's fairly obvious Paul is fine and well, the rumor that Paul had died surfaced and took the world by storm for a short time. Is there any truth to the odd circumstances around the rumor? What would the Fab Four have been like as George, Ringo, John, and Billy? We'll dive into this and more in this hilarious episode of Conspiracy Court.

  • We've all heard the phrase, "you like to eat the sausage, but you don't want to see how it's made". Well, in this episode we're going to do just that. We'll give you the low-down on how we got our start, what goes into making all this happen, who does what, and more. We hope you all enjoy a little peek behind the curtain at AHC Podcast!

  • There are some celebrities and businesspeople that make where they are from part of their identity. Jay-Z and New York, Mark Wahlberg and Boston, and who can forget Abe Froman the Sausage King of Chicago. But as we embark on our 5th year of doing our show, we are going to pay homage to one of the icons of our city. Ted Turner and Atlanta. Ted followed loosely in his father’s footsteps but built a cable empire that changed the way we watched television. While Ted was a pioneer in the television world, he went on to do even more in his conservation efforts. But there has to be some skeletons in that massive, walk-in closet after all these years, right? Ever wonder why so many people are Braves fans in Pocatello, Idaho? And what would you do if your wife turned into a religious fanatic mid-marriage? We’ll dive into all this and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.

  • Well, we hit a bit of a milestone with this show. Not only has this been our most requested show subject, but we’re also celebrating our 5-year anniversary! Thank you to all of you that listen and give us your support, it means the world to us!

    Now, on to business… We’ve talked about royalty on our show, we’ve talked about people being the “greatest of all time” at their particular craft, but it’s hard to deny that Michael Jackson earned his title as the “King of Pop”. MJ dominated the airwaves from the time he was a kid in the Jackson 5, to creating some of the most recognizable hits in his solo career. While his music and dancing inspired generations to come, there was a lot, and I mean a lot, of off-stage behavior that had people asking a lot of questions. And some of those people were the police. Did MJ get a fair shake in all this, after seemingly being guilty in the court of public opinion? How did his childhood play into his odd behavior? And what did that room smell like when Michael caught his hair on fire? We’ll dive into this and more in the Michael Jackson episode of AHC Podcast.

  • A lot of our show subjects have many, often well publicized incidents that make it no surprise that they find themselves in our courtroom. There are also a lot of shows that we’re sure listeners see the subject and think, who? Well, most of you have seen Terrence Howard on television and the movies, but today we’ll dive into one of the more, we’ll just say, interesting, people we’ve talked about on our show. When a celebrity dives into other areas outside of their expertise, we’ve seen some crazy things happen. But Terrence’s ideas of how basic math and physics work, now has a lot of people shaking their head. Does his thinking prevent him from getting roles? Is there more than just some crazy ideas that shone a negative light on the Hustle and Flow star? Does 1x1, really equal 1? We’ll dive into all this and more in the Terrence Howard episode of AHC Podcast.

  • Tiger Woods lit the golf world on fire in the mid 90’s and his meteoric rise to the top of golf was something the sport hadn’t seen before. He brought a completely new audience to the game and kickstarted a renaissance that golf is still reaping the benefits of today. He maintained a squeaky-clean public image, until that all came crashing down in one of the most publicized, extra-marital affairs of all time. But with all the accomplishments he saw on the golf course, how much will the “waitress heard ‘round the world” impact his legacy? Did Tiger have a type, or was he open to what was available? Was Tiger’s ex, Elin, really an undercover ninja? We’ll dive into these questions and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.

  • If you don’t recognize the name, don’t let that deter you from listening to this episode. If you do recognize the name, you’ll definitely understand why he’s in the courtroom today. David Duke was an influencer before the internet, and the brand that he was promoting and platform he was trying to gain followers on, is not what the world needed (or needs). Duke tried his best to bring the KKK from the backwoods to the boardroom, then took his act to the political stage. How he made it as far as he did baffled us, but we’ll let you be the judge. How did David Duke get his rise to prominence? Who was his target demographic? Is it a common thing for a white supremacist to get face-altering plastic surgery? We’ll dive into all this and more in the David Duke episode of AHC Podcast.

  • The world we live in now is much different than the one we all knew 30 years ago, all thanks to the internet. The number of ways to make a living online these days is astounding, but the subject of this show made his mark long ago and seems determined to dominate YouTube. Jimmy “MrBeast” Donaldson started out a young age, but quicky figured out the right way to captivate audiences and use the YouTube algorithms to his benefit. His main channel is the most subscribed to page on the planet and there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight? But is everything as hunky-dorey as the mega-influencer makes it out to be? What’s it like to work for him? And would you cast your vote President in 2036 to this guy? We’ll dive into all this and more in the MrBeast episode of AHC Podcast.

  • There are some celebrities that seem to stay in front of viewers and listeners for decades. For many, you understand why that person remains relevant, and others, we’re often left saying, “how did they get this gig again”. Enter the subject of this episode, Nick Cannon. Nick hit the music scene long ago but branched out quickly to expand his brand. Between marrying Mariah Carey and fathering enough children to field the entire offense of a football team (plus a coach), he stayed in the headlines for years. Then, the hosting started…. While many appreciate his work, he does have his detractors. Where did Nick get his start? How tough are the mean streets of San Diego? How in the world are you picking your children’s names? We’ll dive into these questions and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.

  • Rockstars seem to find ways to hit headlines in some of the wildest ways. The bands of the 80’s seemed to really take things to the next level, and one of the bands leading the way was Van Halen and their frontman, Eddie Van Halen. Eddie’s incredible talent on the guitar made him a legend to anyone who was reading Guitar World in the 90’s, but as you could imagine there were wild times to go along. Was the debauchery described in their tours as real as they say? Was Eddie nightclub guy or more of a recluse? Are we really sure that Eddie understood how reproduction worked? We’ll dive into these questions and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.

  • Everyone knows that the older a person gets, the more their verbal filter wears off. But the filter of Katt Williams has always been Virginia Slim 120 light, and recently he’s just letting it all fly. The accusations made against some of the biggest names in comedy had many of them reeling, but also quickly defending themselves. How much truth is there behind the craziness Katt is speaking? How did that nickname stick? Is Ludacris really part of the Illuminati? We’ll dive into these questions and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.

  • So, the original idea for the show was going to be about another accused pedophile, and honestly, we just wanted to talk about something else. So what better topic to discuss with 40-something year-old white guys, than the history or diss tracks and rap battles? This show just isn't a revisit of Biggie vs. Tupac, it's breakdown of the history of the rap battle. Did you know the public, verbal "dissing" between people has been around for a long time? And of course, we dive into the current frenzy of Kendrick vs. Drake. Chiggity check your mic and get ready for this episode of AHC Podcast!

  • The British have seemed to corner the market for celebrity TV personalities that can be more or less classified, as pric*s. We’ve already done a show on Gordon Ramsey, I’ve heard that the second-best Bond, Pierce Brosnan, can be a bit of a jerk, and today’ show subject has made a name for himself not only in the music business but with his snarky putdowns. Simon Cowell was a star in the UK before coming to the US in the early 2000’s and the show he brought with him, American Idol, took the US by storm. It wasn’t just the singers and their stories that people enjoyed, Simon stole the show with his sharp criticism and dream-crushing comments. We all seemed to enjoy it, but did the contestants? What other collateral damage might we have seen over the years with all his different shows? What is it like being friends with him? We’ll dive into these questions and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.

  • We’ve seen a few of our courtroom contestants meet their maker, as we all will one day, after we release the episode where they are the subject. Just recently, OJ Simpson, passed away and lots of people made one final dig at The Juice. Many would say it was well-deserved for what most view as him “getting off” for killing his ex-wife and her friend, but some still say that if the glove doesn’t fit, you must acquit. In this episode, we’ll reboot our OJ show and tell his story one more time. Enjoy!

  • Once we got done with our Update Show a couple months ago, we thought we had done a good job of getting everyone caught up on some of shenanigans our subjects had gotten into since we did their show. And I mean, we couldn’t leave Steven Seagal sitting where he was in our final ratings.

    But then came the absolutely insane stories about Sean “P Diddy” Combs just weeks after our Update Show. The stories coming out are absolutely nuts and the names involved make this story even more salacious. So, we decided to revisit P Diddy and his latest escapades and allegations. How deep do these allegations run and how many celebrities are just hoping and praying their name doesn’t come out? Is Diddy the monster he’s been made out to be? C’mon Usher, why is your name in all this? We’ll dive into these questions and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.

  • Howard Stern has been at the top of the radio world for decades, making headlines with his crazy antics and intriguing interviews. His shows have remained at the top of the ratings, but as both he and his antics have aged, the show isn’t quite as insane as it once was. And it was those older shows that made the headlines and Howard a pile of money in the meantime. But how far is too far? Has Howard toed the line one too many times for some fans? We’ll dive into this guy’s crazy story in this episode of AHC Podcast.

  • Have you ever had a friend or someone you know recommend a movie that you’ve never heard of, and they “swear it’s unbelievable”, and it really is terrific? What if someone told you that the coolest person that ever lived, passed away before America even became a country? Many would say, “no chance”, but they may not have heard the story of John Law. Law was like a 17-century gambler and economist who pretty much invented the idea of centralized banking and at one point may have been the richest man in the world. How do you think this guy was cool? What caused his downfall? If this guy is so cool, how come I’ve never heard of him? We’ll dive into these questions and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.
