S7 Ep 69"I Offered Them 500,000 to Let me go!" — Johnny Mitchell
️Johnny Mitchell built one of the most respected true crime podcasts on the internet by interviewing kingpins, cartel insiders, and some of the most dangerous people alive. BUT WHO TURNS THE MIC ON JOHNNY? In this episode, I sit down with The Connect's Johnny Mitchell for a conversation, one where HE is the one answering the questions. We get into: ~How hip-hop and crime movies shaped a middle-class white kid into a million-dollar drug trafficker ~The business ethics of the illegal drug trade — and why paying on time and keeping your word mattered more than anything ~The moment Johnny tried to bribe three Portland cops while they carried out half a million dollars of his cash ~What it actually feels like to hit that jail cell on night one & why he slept better than he had in years ~Why American prisons are broken — and what actually needs to change ~Stand-up comedy, bombing on stage, and why learning to live in silence in front of 200 hostile people is the most powerful skill he has ~What comes next when The Connect wraps — and who Johnny Mitchell actually is when the show is done Two guys who've both lived double lives, built something real out of the wreckage, and have no reason to sugarcoat anything. This one went deep. ️Follow Johnny Mitchell: YouTube: @theconnectpod Instagram: @iamjohnnymitchell & @nottheconnect Days of the Trap (his book) is coming back to print soon ️Follow Tegan Broadwater: https://teganbroadwater.com YouTube: @TeganBroadwater Instagram: @teganbroadwater SOFREP: teganbroadwater.com JOIN OUR COMMUNITY to watch episodes BEFORE release, and for exclusive stories and articles: http://eepurl.com/itcbEE THE PURPOSE of this PODCAST: Undercover operative, CEO, Author, musician.

S5 Ep 68'I Made Him Millions' — Then They Pushed Me To The Side — The D.O.C.
Tracy Lynn Curry — The D.O.C. — helped write some of the most iconic albums in hip-hop history, co-founded Death Row Records, and went platinum at 21. Then a car accident took his voice in a single night. This conversation covers it all — growing up bouncing between homes in Dallas, battle rapping Erykah Badu as teenagers, moving to LA on a handshake with Dre, inventing his own notation system to keep writing when he could barely whisper, and the decades-long fight to find purpose after losing the thing he was built to do. Today he's building schools, mentoring kids, and making music again. You don't want to miss this one. MY PURPOSE: From musician to FBI-assigned undercover, to CEO and author, I’ve learned that the most powerful stories happen when unlikely worlds collide. My goal is to unite independent thinkers through extraordinary stories, inspiring positive change, and exploring what connects us all. --Tegan Broadwater, Author | "Life in the Fishbowl."

S7 Ep 67The Lie About “Making It” | Touring with Timberlake to Movies
She toured with Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera & Britney Spears — appeared in major films. 35 years ago, she was my high school drum student! But that's not the story... From Texas grit to LA world tours and big screens, Nancy Anderson breaks down what success in entertainment really takes: relentless work, real relationships, and the kind of “create-your-own-luck” courage that gets you in rooms you weren’t even invited to. In this episode of TeeCast / Uncommon Souls, we go past the highlight reel—into the doubts, the hustle, the auditions, and the mindset shifts that turn talent into a career. You’ll hear about: Showing up anyway (and landing American Beauty + major commercials) Why relationships matter—but authenticity matters more Touring with Christina Aguilera, working with Britney, and chasing the dream gig with Justin Timberlake Handling rejection, staying professional, and finding your “why” again Motherhood, discipline, and the long game of creative life If you’ve ever chased a dream—or tried to understand what drives someone else—this one’s for you.Like, subscribe, and drop a comment: What’s one moment where you “created your own luck”?

S4 Ep 59I Sent Him to Prison for 20 Yrs. - NOW WE MEET AGAIN
OG Mike Holt was a seasoned Crip who brought West Coast gangster tactics to Texas as an armed robber, dope dealer, and street enforcer. In 2008, I arrested Mike along with 50 other Crips in Operation Fishbowl—one of the most significant federal gang conspiracy cases in U.S. history. Mike was the oldest defendant in the case and was ultimately betrayed by other defendants, resulting in a 20-year federal sentence stacked consecutively on state parole violations—essentially condemning him to life in prison. But here's what makes this extraordinary: Mike is intelligent, likable, and experienced. And now he sits across from me—the ex-undercover cop who arrested him—to discuss life, circumstances, how we both got here, and where we go from here. This isn't just a conversation between an ex-cop and ex-con—it's an exploration of justice, consequences, and the complex humanity that exists on both sides of the law. This is a conversation you've never heard before and will never forget.

S4 Ep 57"NOT SILENCED" - The CIA and John Kiriakou - Stories Untold
John Kiriakou was a CIA Officer deeply embedded in the Middle East, recruiting spies and capturing Al-Qaeda. He was imprisoned for his whistleblowing on the 911 torture program, albeit under weak charges. His life is full of surprises, he is a genuinely good dude, and one of the best storytellers I've ever spoken to. We could have done six hours, so, in lieu of canceling the rest of his plans for the day, we agreed to do a part II... I cannot wait, nor will you.
