Arroe Collins: Unplugged & Totally Uncut

Dr. Kirk Yeager and his team at the FBI have worked on the biggest, most consequential explosives cases of our time. Now, for the first time, in his new book The Bomb Doctor: A Scientist's Story of Bombers, Beakers, and Bloodhounds (Regalo Press; May 21, 2024), we're getting inside the confines of the yellow caution tape and behind the "do not enter" signs on the laboratory doors to be given a front-row view of the scientific forensics, grit, determination, and patience it takes to solve these cases and bring bombers to justice. In The Bomb Doctor, Kirk Yeager explains the "bomber's story arc", explodes myths, reconstructs reality, and builds an understanding of the reason and means behind the mayhem, as well as pulls back the curtain on the investigative process that brings bombers to justice.

ESPN introduces its newest 30 for 30 documentary film, False Positive, premiering Tuesday, June 11, at 7:00pm ET on ESPN and streaming on ESPN+.

Butch Reynolds was one of the biggest track and field stars in the world, a talent in his prime on top of his sport. But when he took a drug test in Monaco in the summer of 1990, his career was upended, and his life was forever changed. Yet then and now, the facts of the case shed more than considerable doubt on what happened – instead revealing the tale of a man falsely accused and still compelled in many ways to fight to clear his name all these years later. False Positive tells Reynolds’ story in full, beginning with his childhood in Akron, Ohio, to global fame, to his subsequent suspension by the IAAF. It would take years for him to put his life back together, and to this day, the ban continues to shadow his legacy. False Positive delves into Reynolds’ relentless battle to clear his name, revealing systemic flaws within sports governance and the enduring impact of false accusations on an athlete’s legacy. As the documentary makes clear, when it comes to a story like his, the real truth is found beyond the headlines. And it’s that truth that ultimately defines who a person really is.

Reginald Andres finally got his life together – when he was turned into a vampire. While he doesn’t fit into the stereotypical expectations of what a vampire looks like – he’s not chiseled or classically handsome – Reginald has found his place amongst an unlikely cohort that includes the cool vampire who sired him, the former vampire chieftain turned unexpected ally (or is she?), and his co-worker/former girlfriend. A show with a lot of heart and just enough blood, “Reginald the Vampire” proves the undead life is just as complicated as life itself.

Jacob Batalon made his debut as executive producer and lead star as the titular character Reginald Baskin in Syfy’s REGINALD THE VAMPIRE, a dramedy based on Johnny B. Truant’s FAT VAMPIRE book series. The story is set in a world populated by beautiful, fit, and vain vampires with Batalon’s Reginald being the unlikely hero who will have to navigate every kind of obstacle – the girl he loves but cannot be with, a bully manager at work and the vampire chieftain who wants him dead.

Batalon has established himself as a leading star in the industry with his ability to resonate with his characters and captivate global audiences. Following the success of his scene-stealing role as Peter Parker’s charming best friend ‘Ned Leeds’ in the MCU Spider-Man films with Tom Holland, Batalon continues to dominate film and television both on and off the screen.

Following the immediate break out success of SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING in 2017, Batalon went on to reprise his role in SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING, AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR and AVENGERS: END GAME. He also starred in Netflix’s LIFT and LET IT SNOW, EVERY DAY for MGM, Randall Park’s debut film SHORTCOMINGS; and the independent films THE TRUE DON QUIXOTE; BLOOD FEST; DISH and BANANA SPLIT.

Pod Crashing episode 321 with Steve Fishman and Dax Devlin Ross from the podcast 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)."   Episodes here:   https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-the-burden-157314804/
