Thank you, folks, so much for joining us today. It's a very, very, very special episode today of Crime and Sports. We are going to do the scummies, the long-awaited scummy awards. Boy, oh, boy. And, yes, we're doing this Christmas week, and so we're trying to – we want to give you guys an episode. We were going to take off, and we said, you know what? Let's give them something. And the scummy awards are something that people have been asking us about.

Pageantry. We haven't done it since 2000. Early 2022 was the last time we did it. Crazy. So, yes, this is – the pageantry is here. I am wearing my tuxedo. I just got it out of the cleaners, too. I thought they were going to be late today.

Jimmy, you're looking sharp. I like that tuxedo. I thought you would enjoy this. Crushed velvet. The crushed velvet is timeless. Straighten that a little bit, though. There you go. That's better.

Jesus Christ. Show some reverence here for the occasion, for God's sake. The Scummy Awards. I've been drinking. Yeah. Where we take the worst people of the year. Oh, boy. And we talk all about them. We hand out awards.

And if you're new to the Scummy Awards, these are as voted on by our distinguished panel, including myself and my three dogs, Frankie, Benny, and Oscar, at about 3 o'clock in the morning. So we've come to put our heads together and come to this. And I will say this, too. Normally we do from scummy to scummy. That's the award eligibility period. Right. But for this, because there's two years. It's been a while.

We're going to do mainly the last year and then basically dip back further than that when it's convenient for us to do so. That's what we're going to do. Yeah, that's right. Only when we need more. Tough shit. So that's what we're doing there. And you'll understand what I mean as we go there.

But let's get into this right away. Oh, my God. Let's do it. The pageantry. This is just, oh, my goodness. So many guests. The red carpet outside. It's wild stuff here.

They're clamoring. They're clamoring. We're not letting them in, though. No, no, no. They sent all their prison guard representatives to accept their awards for them. That's right. So let's get right into this with the first award. And the first award is not a competition. We just give it.

We give it out because it's. You deserve it. This person definitely deserves it. It is the but not nearly as bad as award for the most unbelievable doppelganger of names. Where you're like, where I'll say, and you'll go, are you fucking kidding me? And I go, but not nearly as bad as you go. Seriously, there's another one of them. That's too bad.

And the one we found is Maxim Novoselov. That's him. That's him, who is the. Your parents tried so hard to give you a unique one. The one's a crazy Russian guy with gangster ties and teaches battle axe fighting in Russian prisons. He's this giant bear of a man. And this is Maxim Novoselov, CPA. Couldn't be more opposite.

Couldn't be more opposite. A finance and reporting manager uh here which is fucking hilarious and he's in russia as well yeah so he definitely gets mixed up with that guy and i mean seriously another man exists with this name is shocking to me so congratulations maxim on your award um you're not a criminal or an athlete but somehow you walk away with a scummy we give one ever away every year like that. Enjoy your life, Max. Yep. Next up here, let's do this.

This is an award we came up with early. This is an early award. And honestly, one of my favorites. I really enjoy this. This is the Golden Gilretha Award. Oh, what a lovely lady. For the mother who most contributes and assists. And comes to the defense of yes yeah by any and it's named for gilretha who was the mother of um the guy from baylor there who killed his roommate and cut his head off and all that kind of shit and she was like no no he's fine carlton

dots he's a good boy he's a good good boy he wouldn't do that. So in honor of Gilretha, we give away the golden Gilretha every year. This year here we go. Here are the contestants. Only three nominees for this one here. One is Carrie Pappas. Now she is the Taz and his

brother there. The Pappas brother skateboarder. She raised two. Yes. And this is for the specific and exclusive reason that she contributed not one, but two criminals in the past year. No other woman has had two crime and sports criminals come out of her vagina in a calendar year before ever. Very impressive. She's a contributor, everybody. She spreads the ball around the field, and who knows?

She could be productive for years to come everybody this is big not sure not sure next up lebron james's mom what not for contributing to his criminality but for so thoroughly supporting not her own son but delonte west she went the extra mile much farther than any other mother in the show's history has been willing to go that's we'll put it that way an athlete's mom who corrupted another athlete that's impressive not that's not we've never had it before that's why she's up for this name one name one i'm telling you lebron's mom it's gonna she's going to be tough to beat in this category. Let's see here.

And then finally, Sonny Liston's mom as well. Oh, yeah. For having the foresight not only to forget his date of birth to mix up the cops later on, but also to hook him up with his brother's identity, making crime just a hop, skip, and a jump away for this fine young man to happen. She really facilitated. It's very easy for him with somebody else's name. She's a distributor. These are the assist people here. This is the point guards of the situation. And the winner of this, this was a tough one for the panel,

but, I mean, the winner here, here we go, the winner here, LeBron's mom, she wins. Thank God. Yes, she may have actually contributed to an on-the-floor success by keeping Delonte limber, loose, and motivated. Therefore,

making him more famous and more his criminal activity more interesting. So that's nice. That's nice to have. Next up is another award. One of my favorites favorites this one is i love this this is the skip balis award yeah for the biggest liar in existence in sports this year in our in our purview anyway so let's find out who's the biggest liar that we have uh first up johnny manziel

you know i'm not, he lied about everything. He lied that he's rich. Yeah, he lied. Lied about family money, his height, his willingness to watch film. You fucking mental midget. When teams interviewed him, he didn't say, oh, I'm never going to watch film. He didn't say that. He goes, I work real hard.

I watch film. I got family money. I'm not 5' not i'm 5 11 i got money and i watch film and i'm a film watching bastard ah shit he gets other people to lie for him too that's what's amazing he's a huge liar he facilitates lying he is a liar's liar johnny manziel next up greg hardy oh boy for for multiple things for claiming to be a nice guy for impersonating an mma fighter and of course for pretending like he was working at walmart as some sort of sociological experiment like he was writing a college thesis rather than trying to pay his fucking electric bill, which is the truth of the matter.

So Greg Hardy, he's up there. Next up, next contestant, there's a lot of people up for this one. We got four people here. Reginald Spears, one of my favorite stories of all time, he pretended to be cargo. He lied that he wasn't even a person.

He lied that he was cargo in a box so he could ship himself in a box from England to Australia. Also one of the ballsiest liars ever, even when confronted by police. He got caught literally with scuba gear on, with welding torches, to like dismantle some part of a ship in a bay in like Thailand and then was like, I didn't do any of that. I don't know what you're talking about. I'm a tourist doing scuba diving. The balls on this guy. Yeah. Yeah.

Also, remember, he was the guy when the cops raided his apartment. He like hid shit and like snuck out the back like he's a liar from way back. He had no money. he had no money he had no money that's why he shipped himself because literally it was cheaper to ship himself he wasn't smuggling drugs or anything like that it was just cheaper than flying yeah it's crazy uh next up finally sonny liston oh he lied about his age he lied about several different ages he lied about his age. He lied about several different ages. He lied about his birth name and possibly even lied about getting hit by Ali in the big fight that knocked down. Any lie was on the table if he left with a few extra bucks. Sonny Liston, the truth can be bought for Sonny.

Yeah, that's true. He may have may have thrown that fight. Yeah. So you can't trust him at all. Winner. This is a tough one. This is a really tough one. Went to several rounds of balloting

between myself and our distinguished panel of judges. And the winner here, Reggie Spears. It's Reggie Spears. Oh, damn it. Yep, only because as much as every one of these guys is absolutely full of shit, none of them were willing to travel for days while clutching a bottle of their own pee.

That's dedication. You got to want it if you're coming for a scummy. And Reggie Spears really set this bar high this year for a liar's liar. He ate biscuits and candy bars. Yep. And pissed in a jar and held it in his arms as he fucking. Hilarious. He didn't want to eat much so he wouldn't have to shit.

Right. Because he was like, where am I going to shit? That'd wouldn't have to shit right because he's like where am i gonna shit that'd be crazy holy shit so there we go there's a scummy for reggie and we got lebron's lebron's mom's got a scummy this is turning out this is already a firecracker it's a winner of an episode um next up another fun one most apt nickname oh yeah this is a good one tons of nicknames it matches with that it's the best uh first up alex the hurricane higgins was a human hurricane did as much damage to his own body as any category five could ever do just a fucking disaster of a person next up maxim mad max nova nova selav he really is yeah yeah his name is max he always looked pretty mad yeah and he trained russian prisoners in

battle axe combat that's yeah it's mad max yeah there's some thunderdome wasn't as dangerous yeah and looked like he would do fine in a post-apocalyptic landscape. He looks like the model of a guy. Like, if you were going into post-apocalyptic times, what body would you put on? You'd be like, that guy's. I want to be him. He could have sung his theme song. It's so fucking crazy.

Next up, Mike, L.A. Mike Richardson. It's a pretty good one. It's the best fucking nickname ever buddy buddy ryan you know yeah well his actual name is mike so that's a start that helps yeah he's from la also from la and according to coaches who gave him the nickname he is also a lazy ass that's how he got the nickname la lazy ass mike so it works on three levels. Yeah. Which is not bad at all. And he does exactly that even after post football. Lazy Ass.

He's a lazy piece of shit. Allegedly shoots somebody just in broad daylight in the parking lot of a hooker motel on a main street in Phoenix. Very lazy. Lazy man. Very lazy. On video, it's just lazy. Next up, Chris, the Canadian crippler Benoit. Technically, you could consider his victims crippled due to their deadness.

They're not going to be too ambulatory, I bet. Right. So there is that. And he also is Canadian. So there is that. That's not bad. And next up also, lastly, Joe the Animal Barboza, who is a murderer and mob hitman, and also a large-headed ugly person where the animal seems to really fit perfectly for him. He looks like a fucking animal.

This is a close one, I'll tell you what. Again, this really tore the judges apart here. Winner on this one, it's Mad Max. It's got to be. It's Mad Max. If anyone is Mad Max, it's that guy. And complete lunatic and would do well in a dusty post-apocalyptic landscape, and I think he's good like that.

Okay. We got him. We don't need one. Next up, least apt nickname. Oh, yeah. Again, bad nicknames. We get them all the time. Why are you using that?

It doesn't even match. It doesn't match shit. First up here, Steve Dr. Death Williams. Yeah. While an awesome nickname, mind you, a terrific nickname, an all-time great for the wrestling business, mind you a terrific nickname an all-time great for the wrestling business he's never been to medical school or obtained a doctorate in any other field and he's never killed a man so not once but he did die so in the end you know we don't know there is that yeah um next up lucky sam crane well no one named lucky should be on this show because that right away your luck has run out.

He shot a guy who was playing a ukulele, which is fucking hilarious, and drank himself out of sports and then died of cancer at 61. Lucky. In other words, Lucky. And didn't he kill a woman? Did he kill the woman or did he shot the woman? Yeah, I think he might have beat her up. See, I can't fucking remember that exactly. sucks lucky sam crane was a dickhole but that that ukulele story was pretty fucking funny that was funny as shit not lucky next up and this guy's up for a

few scummies this year cedric spider-man marks oh yeah not spider-man not at all can't climb walls no ability to shoot webs not as far as i know a radioactive mutant also never banged kirsten dunst not spider-man end of story that is unfortunate it's unfortunate next up alexis the exorcist vila exorcist the Exorcist Vila. Exorcist. The Exorcist. Failed to rid anyone of a demonic spirit of any sort. Also, a horrible murderer. The only thing he exercised was someone's life.

So, kind of a piece of shit there. That's a tough one. Like I said, these are all really difficult awards to give away. Winner on this one, everybody, it is Cedric spider-man marks he wins yeah he fails to exhibit man uh according to the judges fails to exhibit any qualities of an actual spider-man also spider-man didn't murder people so and bury them in oklahoma right he might have killed a bad guy but he wasn't like now let's get rid of the body afterwards i don't even know if he killed I don't think he killed bad guys, no.

I think he'd just leave them in a web sitting there so they can't move and then call the cops on them or something. But if Spider-Man did kill people, I don't think he'd be like, I gotta go to Oklahoma and dump the body. That'd be super weird. Next up, we have a

new award. It's a new award. we've waited so we're having a new award this is the i don't know how we hadn't thought of this earlier but this is the worst childhood award the award given to the person with the worst childhood we encounter some of the most horrible childhoods ever so and you got i mean you got some of the most horrible childhoods ever. And you got, I mean, you got some of them, how they wind up, you go, well, yeah, obviously. But there's a certain ebb

and flow to life. And there happens to ebb and flow much higher and much lower than most people. Yeah, the extremes are much bigger in either way. Let's hear the ebbs. It's like storms in middle America. You know what I mean?

They're going to be much more severe. They get ugly. So let's see. First up here, Johnny Tapia, the boxer. Very interesting guy. We had a multi-parter on him over this year. And I'm going to read from my notes from the episode here to tell you about his childhood in a succinct way. Johnny Tapia's life began with tragedy.

When Johnny entered the world on February 13th, 1967, his father had reportedly already been murdered. Mom was pregnant and he was murdered. At the age of seven, Johnny was riding on a bus that drove off a 100 foot cliff, hurling a pregnant woman

seated next to him out the window to her death yes hurled over him and died and he got vicious brain damage yes he was also thrown through the window but luckily only had a concussion like a severe concussion but this is before he then boxed for 50 fights after he had a severe concussion then then if that wasn't bad enough the next year a year later his mother was brutally murdered with a shotgun and found in like an abandoned building somewhere like fucking like a pile of garbage that's a rough childhood and that was he had a chance come on that was eight that was at eight. That's your slate at eight.

How the fuck are you supposed to turn it around from that? You know what I mean? Next up, Davey Hilton Jr. Yeah? Boxing. A family, a multi-generation of travelers and boxers. Oh, that's right. Yeah.

A family, all boxers. He's been getting punched in the face since early development. Early, early development. Alcohol punches. Alcohol punches. There was sexual stuff possibly that happened. And when you find out what he did, you go, yeah, he probably had something happen to him. Next up,

Bernard Randolph. Okay. Bernard Randolph here. A basketball player. And I'll read from just a paragraph from a newspaper article about him that we had in the show. Bernard Randolph's life began to unravel the moment his mother, Laura, died of a heart attack. She was only 48, and her death had a profound effect on Bernard, a seventh grader at the time. Tragedy had a way of shadowing randolph his father was often ill his younger brother emory died at birth another

brother arnold was killed in a 1979 fire a third brother moses jr was killed in 1986 all dead everybody's dead except sick dad. Yeah. And him. And him. Everybody else dead as a fucking doornail here. Next up, Sonny Liston. Yeah. Yep. Poor.

Real poor. Very poor, yeah. We're talking poor with Sonny Liston. This isn't poor like, oh, poor now. Like, I eat a lot of shit food and my apartment isn't that nice. Got a lot of government entities taking care of us. This is Great Depression poor, is when he... I only say that not to say, oh, nobody's poor now, but you're not Great Depression poor. No.

That's a different level of poor. There's no hope. There's no anything. So poor, no one even knows where he was born, and he's so poor he had to share an identity with his brother. Never mind sharing a jacket pair of jeans a pair of shoes we can't afford another identity sonny you got to share with your brother you can't we can't even afford you to have your own birthday that's it we can't

do it you're all the same person now enjoy that's it we got one kid kid there's two of you fuck it you gotta share everything that is fucking hilarious um so uh next up terry glenn now terry glenn as we remember all he had was we called this episode a real dad fetish because he was just like all he ever wanted was a dad his whole life his dad was never around um and here is from Terry Glenn's from the notes from his episode. Growing up poor in Columbus, Ohio, Glenn, his younger half sister, Dorothy, and their mother, Donetta, survived on welfare. Glenn never met his dad who took off. We had nothing, Glenn said. Nothing at all.

There were times we didn't even have electricity or gas. Then when he was 13, his mother was beaten to death by a man she had recently met. Oh, dear Lord, that's right. Yep, Kenneth Adams had an unrequited attraction to his 29-year-old mother, Donetta.

Adams abducted her, beat her, and left her to die in an abandoned building in Columbus where the family lived. Good Lord. Yeah, so that's a fun childhood.

Where did Glenn go to live with his grand folks or was he adopted? I think. Oh, fuck. Now I can't remember. I think it was his grandparents. I think it was his uncle or something. It was a family member. Yeah.

Family member. But that is. And he's dead now, too, isn't he? I Terry Glenn. I. Is he dead now? I think he's dead, too. I don't remember.

That's another thing, too. The awards we give out yeah if the person is dead we won't give them a may do something in the future award yeah but they can win a post posthumous award though otherwise like an episode like this because some of these people are dead um yeah so this is a this is a tough one because it's hard to judge trauma. Yeah. It's a difficult thing because, I mean. Caging and weighing and monitoring which is bigger. Do three brothers equal a mother? Yeah. I don't know.

I don't know. You know what I mean in terms of death? It's a difficult one, but let's get the winner here. Winner Johnny Tapia wins it. He took it. Watching a pregnant woman launch through the air and having your mother killed in such a brutal way. Then he starts getting punched on a regular basis.

That, my loyal listeners, is a winner right there. Congratulations, Johnny Tapia. Is that his second award of the evening? No, Spider-Man beat him out. Yeah, so he's got one award so so far no one is running away with a it's not an oscar sweep here yeah no clear winner next up is an award that's going to be redefined this year oh for next year the top silver-haired middle-aged white man award here um this is just loves to just oh it's tough. Sweep it under the rug.

Real rug sweeping son of a bitch. Rug sweeping covering up for anything. No matter the detriment to society if it helps their bottom line by two fucking red cents they'll do it. They don't care. And we have two people that are always nominated for it and usually win it. And we have two people that are always nominated for it and usually win it. And one is Dana White for repeatedly saying the UFC doesn't put up with crime shit and then hiring assholes and then lying. And he's just a huge asshole, a perennial contender in this, honestly. He's a big winner.

who's obviously up for it, for cashing in this year, for cashing in on the Benoit tragedy and staging a tribute on Monday Night Raw the night fucking after it came out that murders happened. All this for one night of cheap fucking ratings before they even knew what happened. And then once they found out, just quietly backtracked and just disappeared him from the history of wrestling.

That's silver, baby, right there the history of wrestling. That's silver, baby, right there. Washed him. That's silver. Winner of this one, it's a tie. It's a tie between these two. And from now on, neither of them can be nominated or win. It has to be different people. That's good, yeah.

They're going to just keep winning and instead the award will now be called the Vince McMahon slash Dana White memorial silver scumbag award that's nice mcmahon the dana mcmahon memorial silver scumbag award and will be given to the silverest man of the year who isn't one of those two terrific so the dana mcmahon award i a lot. Oh, this is so much fucking fun. I love this a lot here. Taylor Swift is soaring high, her every move captured in the news cycle and devoured by her devoted fans. She's broken billboard records and made Grammys history, not to mention becoming a billionaire in the process. not to mention becoming a billionaire in the process.

But along the way, Taylor has had to wage war, first by taking on a very powerful, very famous manager, Scooter Braun, and then by going up against the biggest live events company, Ticketmaster. Hi, I'm David Brown, the host of Wondery's show, Business Wars. We go deep into some of the biggest corporate rivalries of all time. And in our latest season, Taylor Swift will shake up not only the music business, but Hollywood and the NFL. Follow Business Wars wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen ad-free on the Amazon Music or Wondery app.

The wait is over. So far, you're not losing. The only thing you're losing is my patience. Quickly, I see that. Bing! The queen of the courtroom is back. I didn't do anything. You wouldn't know the truth

if it came up and slapped you in the face. I see he's not intimidated by anything. I can fix that. New cases. She wanted to fight me. Leave her alone. Okay, so, um. This is not a so.

This is a period. Classic Judy. Did you sleep with her? Yes, Your Honor. You married his cousin. His brother. That's not him. Yes, ma'am.

I would make a beeline for the door. The Emmy Award-winning series returns. How did I know that? I have a crystal ball in my head. It's an all new season. It's streaming. You can say anything. Judy Justice.

Only on Freebie. The next stop here is Longest Fall from Grace. This is a fun one. We do Grace in the episode and that's when we're at their pinnacle and it's about to tumble and we've had the biggest champion well we had a bunch here this year we have sunny liston number one yeah yeah heavyweight champion of the world the world when it meant a lot when it wasn't eight belts and like i don't know it's some fucking ukrainian guy or some fucking you know czechoslovakian guy that doesn't exist anymore.

He's the champ. We have no idea who the champs are now. Back then, you could ask the average person on the street, who's the champ? And they knew. I think it's still Tyson Fury, but I might be wrong. That's, I mean, who the fuck? And that's one belt. But then there's others.

That's, I mean, who knows? But he was the champ. That's it. Then tumbling all the way down to dying in a mysterious manner to where they don't even know what happened to him is a quite the tumble there he was doing like a lot of like weird appearances to get a few bucks here and there and he really was sunny liston yeah yeah he was going downhill he went went right downhill. Next up, Delonte West. Yeah, man.

I mean, he was never. He played with LeBron. Never a league MVP, but went from being a highly paid NBA player mixing DNA with the mom of an all-time great. Probably. To being homeless and pummeled in the streets on video and having more emotional breakdowns per quarter than Amanda Bynes after having her drink laced with meth and jet fuel. She's a fucking disaster. He's a mess. He's a mess. So that's him.

Next up, Aaron Hernandez. Remember there? That popped up. National champion. Is it two super bowls that he won before i'm not sure i think he won one and they lost one yeah they lost the one of the giants then um aaron hernandez national champion super bowl champion a guy who could probably get tom brady on the phone no problem right now hey throw giselle on i gotta i gotta shout something at her

yeah from all of that to a murdering gangbanger with a prison boyfriend who kills himself in his cell. This is not a good tumble there. That's different. It's a different. It's something. It's not the image he was trying to put forth of a murderer who kills himself in jail. Next up, Johnny Manziel. Huge drop there. This guy was. alive that went so fast so fast if you don't remember yeah if you don't remember what a fucking tough i mean he was

everywhere man yeah mania it was a big deal skit balis was saying he's the next brett farve i mean there was shit like that it was when he goes to cleveland he's gonna be bigger in cleveland yes then lebron then lebron at the time when he played there but not from but not not bigger than lebron's mother because she's obviously going to be the superstar let's be honest here so uh he was a huge prospect could have been maybe not governor but at least could have been elected party minister of texas i believe at one point in his life absolutely he could have had skip ballas touting him as the next qb star took over a wide open quarterback spot in cleveland it was all his job to lose as the city waited patiently fuck not even patiently, chomping at the bit for a savior.

On the edge of their seats begging. All of that to being most interesting because there's a documentary that lets you know he's an even bigger scumbag than we thought he was, basically. Worse. Worse than you knew. A 5'7 lying scumbag. Lying scumbag who barely missed out on a scummy already this year so um next up last in the category is greg hardy greg hardy as well an nfl star making huge defensive line money that's big money nowadays pass rusher money from that to being beaten up in mma rings worse than the beatings he gave to women yeah all the way to pretending he wasn't trying to sell phone plans at Walmart.

That's a fucking drop. All because Nelly fucked his wife. All because he couldn't handle Nelly fucking his wife. Nelly did this. We should have a special Nelly award. You know what? I'm writing that down. We're going to have a Nelly award

for the person who causes someone to have a breakdown and go on a criminal. Who starts the tumble. Who starts the tumble down. It's the Nelly Award. I like that. That's next year. We'll get that out. I want to take a ride with me.

It's getting hot in here. Award is what that is and then nelly nelly went on to sell like seven songs for 50 million dollars this year too that's crazy he's doing fantastic he's doing great he's like doing he's doing like county fairs and shit with a smile on his face making a shit pile of money and greg hardy's clocking in at Walmart. Oh, man. So the winner of this category, it's a tough one.

Delonte West was homeless. That's a fall, but you don't get a bigger fall than suicide in a prison cell. It's Aaron Hernandez, everybody. That's the fall. From, yo, Tom tom where's the party at to fucking i'm gonna i hope this is sturdy on this bar up here while i off myself is a you don't get a bigger fall in that is this enough towels this isn't do i have enough sheet to make this work

uh so next up is the cracked egg award this is the award given to the man with the most brain damage, or woman, whoever, the athlete with the most brain damage here. This is a tough one because it's tough to, a lot of times you have to diagnose by behavior. Sure, yeah. So we don't know. Let's see here. First up, rockin' rebel Charles Williams. Remember him? Yeah.

His wife, who he ended up murdering, was scared of him. He would get lost. Had so much brain damage, he'd get lost in his own neighborhood. Yeah. Not remember where he was. Family fears him. Kills wife in a murder-suicide. Okay.

So that's a lot of brain damage. It sure is, yeah. Johnny Tapia had severe concussion just from that bus accident when he was seven years old before he ever thought about being punched in the head. His brain was fucked up. Before he took a single jab. Then thought way past the time that his brain should have allowed him to do so. He was so brain damaged that he was fooled by a fake DNA test.

Do you remember that? The guy saying he was his father when he wasn't because he wanted his money. So he was just like hanging out with him, getting money from him. That's how the guy saying he was his father when he wasn't yeah because he wanted his money so he was just like hanging out with him getting money from him yeah that's how fucking brain damaged he was that's a lot of brain damage um next up bill romanowski yeah he's fucked up he definitely ain't right in the head i'll say that much pay the irs he's so a lot yeah when when you mix an 80s wrestler's worth of steroids and HGH and this brain damage together, it becomes particularly troublesome, made him a jerk, and made his wife a huge twat also somehow. I don't know how that happened.

His brain damage is so hefty, it's sexually transmitted. It's sexually, yeah, he rubbed off on his wife. I don't know how that happened here. Next up, Aaron Hernandez. Again, he's always a contender here yeah tons of brain damage was probably too mushy in the old noggin to play even after college but persisted and became a cis all-star so congratulations to him next up i'm not sure if we have no documentation on this but judging by his actions dino cicerelli I'm going to put on the list here, played hockey for a long time.

Yeah. Must have gotten hit in the head a great deal because he forgot to wear his pants outside of his house. That's why I'm going on there. Done plain old forgot my pants. Done plumb forgot my pants. Wasn't there a rape, an alleged rape in a limo that he forgot about? Oh, yeah, multiple players. Yeah, and he's like, I don't know what happened.

So I feel like he's been hit in the head a time or two. And finally, Chris Benoit scans showed he had the brain of an 85-year-old man with Alzheimer's. Jesus Christ. Afterwards, killed his family, seemed to have a complete break from reality, not to mention all the chair shots he took and he was dropped on his head the one time broke his neck and the dynamite kid flying head buddy did at the end of all of his fucking matches which didn't help either uh for all of this so there's a this is a big pile of brain damage here we're talking

a petri dish full of brain damage and a very crowded category too one two three four five six contestants here for this category six people six nominees this is a lot bruised brains the winner here everybody winner is it's chris benoit it's gotta be it was close between him and aaron hernandez but none of the others had to this level the actual medical proof of their totally decimated brain and his actions and really his actions are the most important thing because the proof is in the pudding brain it sure is that's what it is right there you gotta know that also he killed a fucking child his child never a child he killed his child his only son god man he killed his only son imagine that his only child next up personal manner in a very personal manner jesus next up

is actually a positive award one of our few it is the mandy malone award yeah actually contributing something positive to the world. Not just not being an asshole anymore, but actually turning the tide around and reversing their karmic destiny. And opening a new book. Yes. Mandy Maloon was someone we did early on, and she is just a fantastic person who we still like to this day.

She's a great lady. First up here, William Bedford. Okay. Yes. Or not first up. He wins it. she's a great lady um first up here william bedford okay yes that are not first up he wins it it's a giveaway award yes we're giving it to him sorry william bedford uh he's a basketball player drug use drug dealing and being known as these two specific nicknames which is my favorite he's known as both the worst driver in Detroit, which is just a great title for some reason. I'm the worst driver in Detroit. And also from his coach, the laziest kid in America, which I think is wonderful. In the whole country. Whole country. Tens of millions of kids. He's the laziest. He's only the worst driver in Detroit, but he's the laziest kid in the country. In the whole country.

That's a lot here. National powerhouse. He now does nice things for troubled kids. He's like Mr. Community Center. Here's a quote from him in the last few years. You've got to humble yourself. Obviously, there's something that you're not doing. You went wrong somewhere.

You've been doing it your own way so many times. Try it another person's way. My message is to not go backward after you've done your time. Not bad. And he tells that to kids and he's a big, giant guy so kids listen to him and as far as this year goes, so many people are either in prison for life

or dead from this year. I'm amazed we found fucking anybody that can do it. It's shocking here. Next up, most likely to have a second crime and sports episode. Oh, my. This is a tough one. A tough one because most of the bad ones, like I said, are either dead or in prison for life this year. So it's difficult.

But we did find a few. Number one, Delonte West. I hate to say it. We're rooting for Delonte West because he's just a mess. But much like Amanda Bynes, that illness is always hiding around the next corner, waiting to bludgeon him with a lead pipe. And it's a problem here. The other point is that a lot of people are willing to help him. And if he can't do it by himself, handouts oftentimes keep the cycle going.

And a lot of times too he hasn't wanted help he'll disappear he's a tough found a way to fix it on on his own and keep longevity going of fixing it yeah no absolutely next up gene the snowman snow now he's an older fella here but he's a race car guy remember him yeah um did. Um, diddler of young boys, um, got minimal time and is still allowed around the sport with zero social consequences that people just hang out and they pretend it never happened. Statistically, he'll do it again and we'll have to fucking talk about him again.

Just statistically. If he's, if there's no consequences, why not fuck more kids? Yeah. Um, next up, Johnny Manziel.

This is a dark horse, but yeah, yeah. He's young, dumb and full of shit this guy he's still a young man gambling gambling and as the novelty of his infamous name value wanes he'll no longer be able to be booked for like weird parties and casinos you know second rate casinos and cameo bullshit He'll try to parlay that into a living, resulting in terrible things. I can also see him killing somebody with his car like Sonny. He also is not a good partner in relationships. No, no, no, no. I can see him being frustrated and beating the shit out of a woman again.

Absolutely. I can see that. Yeah, because she distracted him and he lost control of the car and bashed into somebody's grandfather like sonny that's i can see all that happening absolutely um next up finally bill romanowski i just feel like he isn't done in the field of crime on the field of the of play he's done on the field of crime he's laying in the weeds you know but i really think he's got one more big run in him you know what i'm saying like he's got one more big run in him. You know what I'm saying? I feel like it's going to be financial, though.

Maybe a pyramid scheme based around distribution of a shady supplement mixed in Chinese prison camps. Something like that. You know what I mean? It all comes out and it crumbles and that's the type of thing. Not just your everyday stuff, but something big. He needs

money. Winner here. Winner, sadly, it's Delonte West, unfortunately. the type of thing not just your everyday stuff but something big um he needs money um winner here winner sadly it's delante west unfortunately it really is uh manziel is a manziel is a better chance of getting away with his horse shit because he's yeah he's got it together more where delante will end up straddling the double yellow line while swinging the corpse of a golden retriever over his head on video that's what what he'll, you know what I mean? That he stole from the mall. Yeah, that he stole from the pet store at the mall. Just reached into that little

cage and grabbed him. Started taking bites out of him or some shit. So, there you go. That's the winner of that one. Delonte West is the most likely to have a second episode. That's sad. Next up, the person you'd least want to date your daughter. Oh.

No murder included, though. I mean, the whole fucking cast. The whole cast. The whole cast. But this is least. That's what I mean. That's why these scummies are difficult. They're difficult.

First up, Greg Hardy. Yeah. Oh, fuck yeah. Well, not only beat your daughter senselessly, but doesn't even have the means to pay some of the bills. He's not even beating her going, bitch, I pay the bills. He's like, bitch, give me $20 and I'm going to beat you. This is crazy. Your daughter will work all day, then get beat up by this idiot after he gets home from his gig at Walmart.

You don't want this to happen. And then she'll have to go to an urgent care with her own health insurance because he can't afford it. Yes. Next up, Gerard Mustaf. Jesus Christ. Neither him nor his father were, quote, in favor of pregnancy.

We found out. His father almost made that award and would do anything to thwart said baby, including kill your daughter. So watch out for him. Murder. Next up, Louis Billups. A new one.

He's our newest episode, but he came in with a fury. He's a bad man. Never met a lady he didn't want to punch, rape, or threaten her NBA brother's career over. Just never met a real one. He's a piece of trash. He really sucks. Next up, Alex Hurricane Higgins. This isn't who you want your daughter to marry.

Drank himself toward an early grave at a tremendous rate, smoking four packs a day with no money and hanging out at pool halls. You don't want that guy. So that's fine. Winner here. Here we go. Here is the winner. Louis Billups. It's Billups.

He came in. It's Billups. He came in. It's sad because Hardy really thought he had it wrapped up. He thought the award was his, and then Billups came in in the last week of eligibility and just snatched it. Snatched it from him. All the others may do what he does, but none of them will have the balls to try to extort a rape victim by using the evidence that can convict him of rape. It's mind-boggling. It's against him, yeah, to get your money. Plus, he's just a real asshole, and I wouldn't want to have to hang out with him at Christmas dinner.

You know what I'm saying? Fuck off. Next up here, this award. We have a few more left, only a couple more. Next up is the Please Turn It Around Award, or the Ron LaFleur Memorial, we call it as well. He was the guy whose idea we got this from. This is because Ron LaFleur turned it around

and actually did well with his life. So this is the people we'd like to turn it around. We're rooting for them. First up, L.A. Mike Richardson. I don't think there's any way to turn that around. These are the guys with the best chance of turning it around, and this is why.

He may beat that murder rap, okay? Because the other man in the Hooker Motel parking lot may have had a stick in his hand, and they may end up calling it self-defense. So no city embraces past sports heroes like Chicago. There is not one on earth that does he could move there get a job and still go to all the 84 bear 85 bears functions the 40-year anniversary is coming up in two years so selling shit down on navy pier he could be fine if he just puts his head into it and stops hanging out at the fucking howard johnson's on van buren yeah um next up luther

right are we all rooting for luther right how are we all rooting for luther wright how are you not rooting for luther wright i'm poor guy poor guy lost toes over jesus he's seven foot two with no toes that's wobbly he's more wobbly than a weevil he is people want to help him but he just loves crack and taking his shoes off in the winter while outdoors he loves those two things and he can't help can't be helped. The thought of a man that large squeezing himself into the back seats of abandoned cars to try to get some sleep is just

fucking depressing. Please turn it around. Please, please. We beg you. Now the third one's a different take on this category. Normally this is reserved for people we like this award or we root for. Gene Snowman Snow here for the sake of fucking society, for the sake of society.

Yes. Normally, this is people we like who maybe have a personality that shines through their stupidity. But this one is just for the greater good of society. Stop diddling kids. That would be best for everyone for for everyone. For innocent buttholes everywhere, leave them alone. Leave them alone. So the winner here, let's see here. It's a good one. The winner. Oh, my goodness.

In an upset. And for the greater good of society, Gene Snow. Get after it, Gene. Him turning it around means less molested kids. That's worth the sacrifice of one award. Sorry, Luther Wright. We apologize. You were definitely the front runner.

You sacrificed toes and shit for this. Yep, absolutely, man. So next up here, a couple more left, we have the Worst Father Award. This excludes the obvious choices of fathers who fucked their kids and things of that nature okay so those are like that now first up deshaun stevenson's dad um what did he do strangled deshaun's grandma to death yeah um that's a good run pleaded pleaded guilty to second degree murder was given the maximum punishment of 15 to life, and then died of cancer at age 36. The last thing he did was have a tattoo on his chest

saying Deshaun put on there. Not a good dad. Next up, Luther Wright's dad. Yeah? Beat him with an industrial hose until he thought he was going to die. Right. That's not a good dad at all here.

And he had knots and shit, so he... Oh, yeah. Not even the middle of the hose. The metal nozzle. He wasn't, like, whipping him. He was cracking him. Jesus. Next up, Charles Rockin' Rebel Williams.

He killed his wife and himself and let his small children discover them in the morning. Thanks, Dad. That's a bad dad. Not only do you have parents scarred for life now, fuck in the morning. Thanks, Dad. That's a bad dad. Not only do you have parents scarred for life now, fuckers. Enjoy. Thanks a lot. And then next, very simply, Sonny Liston's dad for having 25 kids.

He had 25 kids. That's a bad dad. You can't take care of 25 kids. I'm sorry. You can't be a good father with 25. You can't do it. Especially if you're a sharecropper, which he was. That's just not good.

I've got two, and I'm a mediocre dad. Yeah, and you haven't killed any of them. No. They all have their own identities. They know their birthdays. Never missed a meal. They're doing great. So the winner here, not even close, in a blowout, Rockin' Rebel wins this one.

We often ask, is it better for dad to take off and never come back or stick around and beat the living shit out of everyone with an arm's reach well we'll never know the answer to that but it's definitely better not to kill mom and yourself and leave yourselves to be found by the children that's not the worst part yeah we know that's bad parenting there um next up, this is another one. This is one of my favorite categories. Most likely to find and kill me personally for compiling this shit on them and then telling the whole story. First up, and this is a surpriser because he wasn't in this year's running, Adam Pac-Man Jones. Yes.

The episode. Still out there, yeah. He's running around, getting in trouble. The episode wasn't this year, but we keep doing updates and I'm very afraid of running into him in an airport. Say, the Cincinnati airport. You're not allowed, you won't find him in the Cincy airport

because he's not allowed there anymore. He's allowed now. They let him back? Yeah, they let him back. So I'm worried about having someone see him, then see me, and start making arugula jokes until he beats me to death with his chicken in front of gate six. I don't need that shit. That's possible. It's highly possible.

If you don't know when Crystal Pepsi was discontinued, what was in Al Capone's vault, or which famous meteorologist is Lenny Kravitz's second cousin, then you haven't spent enough time on Wikipedia. But that's okay. I am here for you. I'm Darcy Carden, and I'm inviting you to listen to my new podcast, WikiHole, from SmartList Media. Discover the craziest rabbit holes on Wikipedia with me and my funny friends as we bring the cyber frontier directly to your tympanic membrane. And if you listen to my podcast, you'd learn that that's the sciency term for eardrum. We embark on a hyperlink rollercoaster as we start out on a Wikipedia page and go from link to link to link to link, careening through trivia,

oddities, and unexpected connections until we collectively shout, how the hell did we get here? Follow WikiHole on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen to WikiHole ad-free by joining Wondery Plus in the Wondery app or on Apple Podcasts. Another one that's highly possible, Lawrence Taylor. Yeah. While he's not a murderer and more of a crack-headed prostitute frequenter, he would have the easiest road to me because I'd be so shocked and happy to

meet him that he could run me through with a butcher knife if he felt like and i'd be like holy shit it's ld that's crazy he could totally get yes he's got 10 seconds of leeway with childhood worship time of you know that sort of thing next up brandon browner oh and these this was a tough category because no football the football, the Seahawks guy. Oh, that guy. Seahawks defensive back. Yeah. This was a tough category because most of the most dangerous people are in prison for life,

so I couldn't put them in here. Yeah. So Brandon Browner escalated all the way to breaking into a woman's home and beating her half to death. Remember that? Mm-hmm. He's got all the needed moves for a Night Stalker-style revenge murder. He could do it. He's still in prison, but he'll be out soon. He's got it the needed moves for a night stalker style revenge murder he could do it he's still in prison but he'll be out soon he's got it all everybody he's got all the makings here i'm a

real deep sleeper uh and then finally maxim novoselov he's crazy he's russian he has organized crime connections and enjoys fighting with he-man sized battle axes yeah always a threat in the murder department. Could probably do it, then eat a huge lunch afterwards. He wouldn't even worry about it. The winner here, it's a tough one. The winner here, LT was a strong candidate, but he's so much of a mess, I don't even think he'd remember to be mad at me,

even if he knew we existed, which I'm sure he doesn't. Winner is Brandon Browner in an upset. Yes. All the other guys have something else going on. Brandon will get out of San Quentin and look to settle scores, I feel. Good God, San Quentin, too. Oh, yeah. No one cares about him anymore, so he'll go all the way down the score,

all the way down the line, score settling time, until he gets to us and murders me. So, finally, everybody, do you have your bow ties straight? Is everybody here ready for this? It's the biggie. It's the big one, everybody. Hope you got your drinks ready. You should because it is time for the most anticipated award in the history of awards.

The most pageantry. The scumbag of the year everybody here it is oh baby the big finish now remember by the way because people go oh well this person is just all murderers no no no no it's not just what you did but how you did it you did it why you did it a complete disregard for decency in general human nature maybe even having a little bit of a lawn while you do your crimes. Some selfishness, yeah. Some selfishness.

Let's see here. This year, we're going to break these categories down into three different divisions. Oh, boy. Okay, first up in our serial killer division, what do they call it in the tournament, the brackets, in our serial killer bracket, we have Cedric Spider-Man Marks. Pretty bad, yeah. He's a fucking serial killer bracket we have Cedric Spider-Man Marx.

He's a fucking serial killer. He killed any woman who was inconvenient to him. Dismembered, dumped people, made other women give alibis. I mean, he is a... Stayed married to one while dating others. Bad, bad, bad,

bad man, Cedric Marx. So he's a strong contender next up aaron hernandez he killed at least several people that we know of at least three or whatever uh with more planned he had more oh yeah plenty of plants yeah yeah was the most jekyll and hyde existence that anyone ever heard of by day oh god? Oh, God. Yeah. Name another person that presented one thing and was the entire opposite. To that extreme. Yeah, by day, hang out with Tom Brady.

By night, murder your friends and cousins and relatives and brother-in-laws or whatever the fuck it was. Oh, make sure not to remember that the inside of your home is all surveillance cameras so your alibi's shit too. Remember that part.

As you hand a murder weapon to a man with a well while wearing a bloody shirt or whatever it was now in any other year a serial killer would be a shoo-in obviously but this year the field is loaded with true scum ready to get their accolades so let's move on to the child molester division all right here we have uh first up doug northway yeah now the reason for this he only you know he molested a couple of kids or whatever but the reason he's on here is because of his position of power yeah an olympian a minister and a kid swim teacher everything he did was set up to be trustworthy every to get more kids. Fucking thing he did was to sweeten that flower to get the bees

to land on it and then Venus fly trapped their asses. Put in a position of power over children and uses it to diddle a neighbor. Not a scumbag trolling the streets in a rape van. A true predator cloaking himself in the robes of trust. Bad man.

Next up, Chris Nellums, another more recent guy, fucked his daughter for years. Raped his daughter for years, starting at age eight. Then, to make it worse, if you could, repeatedly and to this day denies that it ever happened, even though there's physical medical proof, which this further destroys his daughter's life, who has recently come out publicly with her name and everything to try to shame him into admitting it, which he won't.

He calls his daughter a liar. So not only did he do that, now he publicly calls her a liar and all this shit. That's a scumbag right there. That's fucking proof. Nah, that is this shit that's a scumbag right there yes that's fucking poof nah that is some that's a lawn boy next up davey hilton jr yeah again fucked his own daughter yes but he molested more than one of them he sure did so right away he's ups nellums because of that more than one also kept them out of school and dragged them on the road with him, with the whole family cramming into Super 8 fucking disgusting motel rooms.

So gross. The crimes are bad enough, but what makes him a real contender is his ability to completely deny these convicted crimes to this fucking day again. Oh, and he got remarried and had another daughter after all this, too. Yikes. Which frightens me even more here. Next up and last in this bracket of this category is Sergio Mitre. Yeah.

Jesus Christ. He's a real frontrunner, people. Yeah. An abusive lunatic who not only killed his girlfriend's baby, didn't only rape his girlfriend's baby, but raped a baby to death. Jesus. God damn. If you said, what's the worst thing a human being could do?

I don't know. Rape a baby to death. That's it. That's something as like an extreme example. Nobody does that. That's crazy. The absolute depravity disregard for really anything that a half-decent society holds sacred makes him one of our most accomplished scumbags in the history of the show. But will one huge crime be enough to cinch it?

That's the thing. Talking about multiple murders. We don't know. And finally, the family annihilator class here. This is our other in the Western family annihilator bracket here. Yeah. We have two people, Charles, both wrestlers, by the way family annihilator bracket here. Yeah, we have two people. Charles, both wrestlers, by the way, both ECW alum here.

Charles Rock and Rebel Williams. Number one. Not only do the kids get to know that dad killed mom and then didn't even care enough about them to stick around to protect them from the world. Also gave them the lifelong image of seeing their horribly dead parents. Nice job, Charles. That's a real a1 fucking move jackass and then finally chris benoit yeah again again killed his wife fine adults have problems and kill each other we've heard things on small town murder where we're like i could see it you know what i mean like i don't know i could see it your husband and wife shit builds up over years whatever but to have the brain damage and ego to think that your kid couldn't possibly make it without you around so you kill your kid but

then you don't even have the balls to make up a story about home invaders dead set on destroying his life because of that time he beat sid vicious for the fucking title in wcw no he pussies out and kills himself and in the most pussy way possible with a nice soft towel around his neck so his skin wouldn't chafe so he wouldn't hurt himself so he wouldn't hurt himself this is a tough one everybody yes this is a tough one uh let's get into this this was the toughest call of any scumbag of the year so far by far um myself and our esteemed panel debated over a multi-minute period it really took a while frankie and benny wanted a guy who fucked his own kid to win the prize they were disgusted by that but frankie picked nellums and benny decided davy

hilton's other violent crimes sent him over the top so they ended up canceling each other out in the kid fucking department so after much deliberation oscar and i came to the obvious choice and it's the only choice everybody sergio mitre congratulations it's a terrible terrible man you're the worst person who's ever fucking walked the earth. Scumbag of the year and possibly the decade. Of a lifetime. Of a lifetime, yes. While killing your whole family, killing multiple people you aren't related to and trying to get away with it for the purpose of killing more,

and the raping of your own children are all abhorrent, terrifying acts of shit, your own children are all abhorrent terrifying acts of shit raping a baby to death is a phrase that will never cease to shock amaze and disgust everybody sergio you're the worst ever this is both a lifetime or a scumbag of the year and a lifetime scummy for the person who i'd most like to kick the living shit out of the most. Congratulations, Sergio. You are the big winner tonight. Oh, my goodness. Thank you for participating and being the biggest piece of shit ever and that poor fucking baby.

So there you are, everyone. That is the 2023 Scummy Awards. God damn it, I love the Scummy Awards. And I'm going to loosen my bow tie up right now. That's like a tough one. I'm trying to hour. I was dirty, man. I was dirty.

I'm trying to think of if it's so hard because so many people are dead this year. Yeah, there's a lot. So a lot of the awards of like might happen in the future awards. I'm like, well, that guy's dead. That guy's dead. That guy's fucking dead. Yeah. This guy's dead. That guy's dead. That guy's fucking dead. He fucking, this guy did this,

this guy did that. So even like Lewis Billups, least likely to date, at least want to date your daughter. He's daddy. Can't date your daughter. So it's, it's difficult,

but I do my best. And I tried to find the avenues that were most just ripe for fucking picking. And I think we found it. Um, I'm particularly proud of the new Worst Childhood Award. It's pretty good. Every year we try to add like a new award or two just to make it fun. Yeah, it's got to be different.

I like the Worst Childhood Award. And next year the Nelly Award is going to be a lot of fun. The catalyst of someone's downfall is what that is. And that's going to be a lot of fun I really like that it's going to be right after the Golden Gilretha I feel like this is the support that people really need to achieve their crime goals

that's all you can do so holy shit thank you so much we will be back of course next week the problem is this episode comes out early release Christmas night and then like New Year's Eve or some shit. So it's like it's Jesus Christ. We couldn't have a worse time.
