Today, we’re diving into the wild, leather-clad legend of Jim Morrison—the man who fancied himself a poet, a prophet, and a psychedelic sex god all rolled into one. He was the voice of a generation, or at least the voice echoing through a lot of smoke-filled dorm rooms. Frontman of The Doors, self-proclaimed Lizard King, and walking contradiction, Morrison blurred the line between genius and trainwreck with every slurred monologue and shirtless stage dive. Was he a visionary artist or just your drunk philosophy major friend with a tambourine and a God complex? Let’s find out—on this episode of Asshole Court.

We’ve all heard the phrase, “don’t ever meet your heroes” and while it may ring true for some Hollywood elites, there are some exceptions to the rule.  It would depend on what kind of “meeting” you would want to have with today’s show subject, but for most, we would most likely ask to be dropped off after dinner and a couple drinks. Lawrence Taylor is considered by many to be the greatest defensive player the NFL has ever seen.  His recklessness and athleticism were something the league hadn’t seen before, leading to new blocking schemes to try and slow him down, extensive professional accolades, and two Super Bowl rings along the way.  LT seemed to have the football part of his life down pat.  But to quote the late, great Rick James, “cocaine is a hell of a drug”.  LT lived a hard partying lifestyle of epic proportions, and at some point, it almost cost him his career.  Did his love of the white lady ever effect his play on the field?   How early did all his drug use start?  How many hookers did this guy buy in a day?  We’ll dive into all this and more in the Lawrence Taylor episode of AHC Podcast.       Intro Music Credit: [ FREE NO COPYRIGHT BEAT ] Short Trap Instrumental [ Hip Hop Rap Type Beat ] Terri Skillz - KINGS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zBjlKls-R0&list=PLxtj0Fzm7DkhQlXlBXVot_xbqjdcn8N_k&index=4 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/       Citations: Evans, G.

Have you ever been around someone that just makes you nervous the whole time?  You never know what they are going to do, what they may say, or what kind of trouble YOU may get in just by being around them.  From the image he’s created over the years, Conor McGregor definitely seems like someone you would want to be on your toes around.  He’s knockout out many of people, legally, in the octagon, becoming one of UFC’s most celebrated champions.  But he has a tendency to not keep his hands to himself when playing with others in the sandbox of life, and it’s seems it could start to catch up with him.  Can Conor chill with the public pugilism and enjoy the bookoos of bucks he’s made, or will he find his way into the cancel culture whirlwind?  We’ll dive into this and more in this episode of AHC Podcast.         Intro Music Credits: Title: Fiddle-De-Dee Artist: SilvermanSound Genre: Celtic    "SilvermanSound - Fiddle-De-Dee" is under a Creative Commons license (CC BY 4.0) Music promoted by BreakingCopyright:     'Fiddle-De-Dee' b...   SilvermanSound https://www.silvermansound.com/   BreakingCopyright Twitter: https://twitter.com/BreakingCopy       Citations: Boyd, F.

Back in the 80’s you had the surfer bros out in California and of course the Wall St. bros on the east coast. Time evolves and we had to endure the popped-collar Jersey Shore bros, and most recently we may have run into the most annoying version of them, the crypto bros. And this show is about none other than the king of the crypto bros, Sam Bankman-Fried.  SBF (as the bros call him) made a massive splash as he took his company, FTX, to the top of the crypto world in very short order.  There were celebrity endorsements, cutting-edge software and lots and lots of money to be made.  Until it all came crashing down and the ponzi scheme SBF had been running was brought to light and he now gets share a cell block with Diddy and Luigi.  What got Sam into the crypto space to start with?  Did his upbringing lead him down the path he went down?  Is he going to trim those curly locks in prison?  We’ll dive into this and a whole lot more in the Sam Bankman-Fried episode of AHC Podcast.       Intro Music Credits: FAYZED - Nat's Tea Trap Beat, Instrumental, Hip-Hop&Rap [No Copyright Sound] [ FREE USE MUSIC ] - FAYZED - Nat's Tea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqjgHvub_ps&list=PLxtj0Fzm7DkhQlXlBXVot_xbqjdcn8N_k&index=166 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/       Citations: BBC.
