On this episode of UNSCRIPTED, I try my hand at True Crime stories with a tale that reads like a political thriller.  It is said that the assassination of Derwin Brown was the country's first assassination of an elected official in more than 20 years.  Please join me to hear the tale of how evil, power, and greed led to the murder of a good and righteous man.

Musicians should go to a yard sale and buy an old ******** drum set and get in their garage and just suck. And get their friends to come in and they'll suck, too. And then they'll ******** start playing and they'll have the best time they've ever had in their lives and then all of a sudden they'll become Nirvana. Because that's exactly what happened with Nirvana. Just a bunch of guys that had some ****** old instruments and they got together and started playing some noisy *** ****, and they became the biggest band in the world.

Welcome to HGQ Podcast UNSCRIPTED.  Every so often, in bonus episodes, I'll get away from the quotes to discuss random topics that are on my mind or of interest to me that I'd like to share.  I invite you to listen, but, if you're just here for great and inspirational quotes along with their backstories, feel free to skip the episode.

In today's first release of UNSCRIPTED, I'll be discussing the trial of Ryan Duke in the murder of a southern GA teacher and beauty queen, Tara Grinstead.
