Speaker 1

Hey, discos, need a little more Disgraceland in your life, just to touch to get you through. Yeah, me too. This is the podcast that comes after the podcast. Welcome to Disgraceland, the after Party. Welcome to the Disgraceland bonus episode, a little thing we like to call the after party. This is the show after the show, the party after the party, the bridge to get you from one full episode of Disgraceland to the other, the backyard to dig

into the dirt. On this bonus episode, we are talking about this week's full episode subject said Vicious, Sean Diddy, Combs and jay Z. We got an update for you. We're getting into the next two episodes that are hitting your feet in honor of the Academy Awards that are coming up. First Dorothy Stratton and then our part two episode on Martin Scorsese, and we get into your voice, text, DMS, emails and as always, a whole lot of rosie. Alright, disc goes, let's get into it all right, So just

imagine we're not sitting here in February. We're not blanketed in snow, We're not freezing our butts off. Imagine it's the summer. It's summer twenty twenty five, there's a worldwide cooling in temperature. It's perfect weather everywhere. It's seventy two and sunny. There's no humidity at the beach. This morning, you pulled a perfect pearl from an oyster. It was your second pearl on what seems like an endless vacation.

There's peace in the Middle East. At home here in America, there's consensus among voters and our leaders on the direction of the country is to follow Morrissey and Johnny mar They've reunited the Smiths, as have Jack and Meg White the White Stripes. Both bands are on tour right now and tickets are only twenty bucks each. There are no

additional fees. Even Okay, Congress has passed the Buck Stops Here Bill, a bipartisan piece of legislation that makes it illegal to charge more than a dollar for a hot dog, a coffee, or a glass of cheap beer. And Sean Ditty Combs has just been convicted of sex trafficking, racketeering, conspiracy,

and transportation to engage in prostitution. The evidence against Ditty numerous videotapes showing him committing unthinkable sex crimes against his victims while being cheered on by other complicit a list celebrities is so damning that he's given the maximum sentence one hundred years plus life in a federal prison where he will spend all of the rest of his breathing moments. You want all of these things to happen, sure, but that doesn't mean that they will. Okay, we didn't get

justice for sid Vicius's death. You can hear all about that in this week's full episode of Disgrace San And this past week we learned that the case against jay Z was thrown out and that got me thinking, what in the hell is actually going to happen with this coming Sean Diddy Comb's trial. Do we think Comb's is guilty. That's a tough question. We've talked about it a bunch here, and you know we have evolving opinions on this, all right.

Combs has been indicted and legally accused in multiple cases, criminal and civil, of sexual assault, abuse, and sex trafficking. Sean Diddy Combs denies all of these charges. Now when the court of public opinion, Combs has also been accused of a lot of other things, Okay, of grooming, of running a large scale celebrity blackmail operation and even of murder.

Over on TikTok. With one quick search, you can find numerous videos accusing Sean Diddy Combs of murdering his ex wife kim Porter, of conspiring with jay Z to have so called Becky with the Good Hair to have her oft. There are those who accuse Sean Combs of having something to do with the deaths of Andre Herrel and Heavy d, even Aliyah and Whitney Houston TikTok conspiracy theories about Sean Combs. However,

they do not stop there. The hip hop mogul is not only accused of sexually grooming underage pop stars Usher at the time and Justin Bieber also at the time. But you can hear and you can watch on TikTok ai Sean Combs. You can see this artificial intelligence content. You can see how do we refer to that AI content? Doesn't sound right anyways, It's AI generated content depicting Comb's raping and abusing Meek Mill, Bad Bunny and that fat

dude from Family Matters the Dad. Not only are you going to get this deep fake content over on TikTok again audio and video, you're gonna get testimony from members of Sean Combs's inner circle, all right, mostly bodyguards and such, testifying on video corroborating these wild conspiracy theories. Now, to my knowledge, Sean Diddy Combs hasn't dignified these rumors. These the wildest of these rumors were a response, and he

certainly hasn't admitted guilt in any way. And I am in no way suggesting that he is culpable for the wildest of these conspiracies that are being charged against Cobs so far, other than the actual video we have showing Sean did he Comb's viciously beating on his ex girlfriend Cassie Ventura, who, lets remind ourselves, accused Combs of abuse.

Combs denied it, and then he settled with Cassie for thirty million dollars a day later, and then he denied all the subsequent abuse charges that were brought against him after that, charges by Rodney Little, Rod Jones and others. And then we saw and then we saw the video of Comb's beating Cassie that not only proved that Combs was an abuser, but it was also a proof that he is a liar or was a liar. That he lied about it. Okay, So aside from that evidence, however,

nothing has leaked. No other evidence has leaked. There's been zero other evidence proving Sean Combs is guilty in any of these seedier, more outrageous TikTok conspiracy theories which bring me to jay Z. Jay Z is wrapped up with Sean Combs and a lot of these conspiracy theories as well over on TikTok and the civil case against jay Z that was just thrown out last week a couple of days ago, had a lot to do with Sean Combs. Okay,

but puff it's gone. Why we don't really fully know yet officially because of quote unquote inconsistencies with the accuser's account, and I'm betting there was also a lack of evidence here. But that case is dead, jay Z free and clear. How does this relate to Sean Diddy Combs. So what we have to ask ourselves is the actual evidence against Sean Diddy Combs. What is there that is going to prevent Sean Diddy Combs and his case from going puff the way the jay Z's did. How consistent are the

accounts from Sean Diddy Combs's accusers. How consistent are those accounts going to be on the stand. Let's cut the chase. What I believe that most people want, and maybe this is just because I'm fucked up and I'm being cynical here, but what I believe that most people want is they want Sean Ditty Combs to be found guilty, not only everything that he's accused of legally in that federal indictment, but also of everything that he's accused of on TikTok.

I think there's a burning appetite in this country after years of injustice, particularly around the Jeffrey Epstein case. There's a yearning for justice when it comes to powerful people, particularly famous people who've abused their power, or who we believe to have abused their power. And I believe that most people want these atrocious conspiracy theories to be true, and that they want Diddy to be found guilty, and they want all of his celebrity friends to be found

guilty too. Lebron and Kevin, Oprah and Gail and Ellen and Ashton and even the Donald. They're all on tape, right, They all gotta burn alongside Ditty? Am I one of these people? I don't know? Some days, sometimes I want the most entertaining outcome to be true just out of pure selfishness. The caveman part of me, I guess, wants some vengeance, but I try to keep that instinct pretty

tamped down for the most part. You know, Ultimately, more than anything, I don't want these stories, the crazy conspiracy TikTok theory, I don't want any of it to be true.

Speaker 2

You know.

Speaker 1

I actually think that the best outcome is that Sean Diddy Coombs is actually innocent of what he's being accused of, because then there's no victims, then there's no collateral damage. I do I think that's going to happen. No, Do I think he's guilty of what he's being accused of on TikTok, of all these wild conspiracy theories. Do I think that he's going to be convicted of that We're going to find out it, you know, factually, that he did these things and that he's going to go to

jail for them. As I teed it up at the beginning of this episode, I don't think so. That said, I'm not naive. Where there's smoke, there's fire, But we have to look at the facts, especially in light of this jay Z case being dismissed again on account of inconsistencies with the accusers account and likely lack of evidence. How strong is the evidence against Shandity Combs. We don't know, okay, but we've heard nothing about evidence that the Feds have

that his legal accusers have. We've heard nothing in the way of real evidence. I'm not talking again, I'm not talking about the TikTok accusations. We've heard nothing and we've seen nothing that supports any of those TikTok conspiracy theories. Nothing, all right. All we know for sure is the following. Shandy Combs is in jail awaiting trial. The Feds, his accusers believe in this case. They brought the case. The judge believes Combs is too big a threat to be

let out on bail. We don't know what the evidence is. We can only assume it supports the sexual assault, the abuse, the sex trafficking, and the RICO charges that the federal government is charging him with as of yet. As of late, no other high profile friends of Sean Combs have been legally accused, except for jay Z, who had the case thrown out again for inconsistencies from his accuser is Sean Didty Comb's going to be found guilty when he stands

trial in two months. I don't know. Do I think we're going to get earth shattering evidence that incriminates not only Combs but also his A list celebrity friends in crimes that are unspeakable in most places except for the dark corners of TikTok At this point, judging by what went down with the jay Z case, and giving that there's been no again there's been no other actual evidence

released or leaked to suggest otherwise, I really don't think so. However, this is still America, and just like Sean Didty, Combs maintains his right to plead the fifth so as not to incriminate himself, I maintained the right to change my mind new evidence. I'm not a dumb ass, but this is where I'm at at the moment. This jay Z thing threw me. I did not see this coming. I did not see this thing getting thrown out. So that's where we're at. I haven't done a Diddy update in

a while. That's the Diddy update you know again out here throwing it at you guys because of the jay Z news. Thought I should bring it up. It's definitely changed, adjusting the way that I'm thinking. It's definitely affecting the way that I'm thinking I should say. But I'm interested to know what you guys think, all right, So hit me up and let me know what do you think is going to happen here with Sean Combs. Now, I mentioned it at the top of the show, the injustice

surrounding Sid Vicious' death. We get into that in this week's full episode on Sid and Nancy, a classic Love Kills episode of disgrace slaying that we brought back for Valentine's Day. Now, the Oscars they're coming up, and with it being Valentine's Day, so the Valentine's Day Day season, I guess we have another wild love Kills them story. But again because the Oscars are coming, this love Kills

themed episode comes from Hollywood. It's on Dorothy Stratton. Now, if you do not know who Dorothy Stratton is, do not let that stop you from listening. Dorothy was the next big thing, a true beauty, a perfect ten a dime spot, a woman so gorgeous. Playboy Hugh Hefner called her the next Marilyn Monroe. All right. That was the promise of Dorothy Stratton's burgeoning Hollywood career, and then it

all ended quickly, violently, and disastrously. And I'm not going to spoil it, but let's just say that this story is so compelling. It's inspired multiple films, including by the Great Bob Fosse his excellent Star eighty with Eric Roberts, and also multiple songs like the Red Hot Chili Pepper's Californication, Brian Adams's Cuts like a Knife. So check out this episode on Dorothy Stratton, and then and then, and then, and then the following episode before we talk again in

the next after party. You're gonna get another episode that's coming on Tuesday. It's Oscar themed as well. It is the wild story about the murder that director Martin Scorsese did not commit. The murder Martin Scorsese needed his friends Steven Spielberg and others to talk him out of on one legendary Hollywood night. This might be my favorite episode yet. It might be my favorite episode that I've written. Okay, I love it that much and I cannot wait for you to hear it. I wanted to tell this one

for a while. The story is legendary in Hollywood. It was rumored to be true forever, but it wasn't confirmed. Quentin Tarantino would speak about it from time to time, and then in twenty fourteen, I believe Scorsese and Spielberg appeared together and confirmed it. It's a vicious story of violence and creative obsession and artistic commitment, and it involves some of the greatest directors, not only of the seventies

but just from Hollywood history in general. When you're listening to it, I want you to be thinking of this, Who is your favorite filmmaker and why which director? Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, Brian DePalma, any of the guys from this episode. This episode guys, it's like remember the Muppet mupp Babies. It's like Muppet babies for awesome Hollywood directors. This is about Scorsese, Spielberg, Brian de Palma, John Millius, Paul Schrader. When they're all just you know, coming up in the

in the seventies. It's it's like their origin story in a way. That's the backdrop. Anyways, it's really solely about Martin Scorsese. But all these guys are characters in it, and it just begs the question, the question that I want you to be thinking about when you're listening to this episode, which is which director slash filmmaker makes the movies that resonate most with you and why I want to know let me know six one seven nine oh six six six three eight voicemail and text at Disgrace

lampod on the Socials. That's going to be the question of the week next week, relative to our episode on Martin Scorsese coming this Tuesday, however, but before that, you're getting that Dorothy Stratton episode. Don't forget that. I'm gonna be back in a flash with the answers to last week's Question of the week right after this. All right, we are back. Just a quick reminder to make sure that all you Apple podcast listeners have auto downloads turned on so you're not missing any episodes.

This week's episode on Sit and Nancy, we asked the question which celebrity couples were the most toxic and this is what we heard back from you, guys, ad on Instagram. Rights. Hey, hi, Jake Ad from the four one to ero with my contribution for the worst and roll couple, Which rock and

roll couple could possibly be worse? And the ultra cringey couple of Jerry Lee Lewis and his thirteen year old cousin Myra Gale. Hard to fault Myra Gale in this whole thing, not that you're doing that four one zero, but you know she was thirteen and uh what a whirl win that stirred up. I hear you great one name and you know, awesome for us to be able to call back to our Jerry le Lewis episode. You guys can check that out. That's in the archive. You have not heard it yet. That is the very first

episode of Disgrace Sland. Chris Hillman on Spotify chimes in on this topic, writing, Hey, Jake, didn't know much about this story, but o MG crazy. I mean, Sid beats the murder rap for killing Nancy and then his mother. Basically, well, I'm not gonna give it away for you guys here. What didn't see this coming at all? Awesome episode, love definitely kills. As for worst rock and roll couples, my pick is Pam and Tommy loved this podcast, Chris and everyone else. I've long wanted to do a Pam and

Tommy episode, and maybe that's in the future. There's so much so I did a Motley Crue episode. There's so much more there, though, and a Pam and Tommy episode might be a way in. All right, let's hear from the five to four to oh on Sid and Nancy.

Speaker 2

Hey Jake, this is justin from the five four zero. I just finished listening to the didn't Nancy episode. I'm only listening to that thing like four times probably, but that is some of your best work. That is amazing. I don't know, man, It's just the way you tell the story. It comes across so vividly and so just I mean, the utter despair and grit and grime of nineteen seventies London, nineteen seventies New York. It was all

just you know, a complete shit show. But they had some of the best music in the whole damn world. And that's what Mike said, all right, But I appreciate your story telling, man, I like that story. Rock and Rolling.

Speaker 1

Justin thanks to your voicemail, Man, happy you're digging the grime and the crime and the CID and the Nancy story. Appreciate your call and appreciate your listening. Six one seven nine oh six six six three eight. I talked last week a little bit about and I think I did it only in the Yeah, I did. I did the recommendations in the exclusive portion of the after party, so you guys missed out if you're not All Access members.

But I gave some Valentine's recommendations, and one of them I won't I'll share it now because Valentine's Day has passed for the most part, I mean, I mean those still some of us celebrating, you know, for the lovers out there, I recommended Rocky as one of my favorite love stories and eight to eight rights and hey, Jake, I cannot agree with you. More on the Rocky love story. When I proposed to my wife, I used Rocky's proposal to Adrian voice and all. It was awesome piece Lee

in the four one two Lee. That is some serious Rocky commitment there, proposing to your wife and the visistalone. Boyd you want to get married to? What? Okay, let's see what else we got here? All right? More on Prince versus Michael Jackson. This one won't die three h two writes in I will die on the hill of not being able to compare Prince and Michael Jackson. Sure they were of the same time, Sure they benefited from MTV, but what they did was colossally different. MJ was a

pop singer and dancer. Prince was a musician. He played the instruments and all styles of music. He was pop, rock, soul, funk, jazz, blues, and sprinkled gospel and even did at least one rap. There's styles as musicians were hugely different. Okay, there's styles. Weren't that different. I mean, come on, you're really really nippicking here. I think to say that Prince and Michael Jackson's styles were did you say colossally different, hugely different? Yeah? Man,

I don't know. I feel like this is like saying you can't compare Pedro Martinez to Manny Ramirez because one guy was a pitcher and the guy was a hitter. They both played during the same time, they both contributed to the game at the same time. Who would you rather have on your team? Type of thing? Right, you know what I'm saying. I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe I'm in the wrong. I like, you know, I like this. I like this one, Prince versus Michael Jackson.

You guys like it too. Keep it coming, all right? This one comes from the three to two three. Hey man, Spike here from Hollywood. I just wanted to say thank you for your show. I was raised on rock and roll. Mom's a hippie, dad was a biker, and growing up, my father used to tell me stories about all the rock stars we love, Janis, Jimmy, Mick, Keith, David, Iggy, Lou Courtney, Kurt, etcetera. Stories about all the messed up shit they did and whether they survived or didn't. It

was basically the premise of your podcast. Anyway, my father died three years ago and I just wanted to say thank you for keeping that part of him alive. For me, feels like I'm with him when I listened to your show. PS, if you can give a shout out to my cap Bam bam, he would very much appreciate that. Thanks again, brother.

Which director slash filmmaker makes the movies that resonate most with you and why? I want to know Hit me up six one seven nine oh

six six six three eight voicemail and text. At Disgrace lam Pod on the Socials, I'm back in a flash with your emails reviews, the Story of the Week, and for our All Access members, a sneak peek at our upcoming exclusive Stevie ray Vaughn episode Back in a Flash. Welcome back the Disgraceland's Story of the Week. Listen you

know this. It can be any story from your rock and roll past or from rock and roll history that you think best represents the rock and roll spirit and that you want to share with us here in Disgraceland. This week's Story of the Week is extra special because it entails our sid in Nancy episode, and it comes from a gentleman named Knox Bronson. Hey, Jake, let me first say how much I enjoy Disgraceland. I love every single episode. I just listened to your sid Vicious podcast

and I wanted to share something with you. Twenty years ago or so, I read a blog post by Don Eden telling the story of when, as a young woman, she was hanging out in Washington Square Park and met a junkie named John Spacely. John Spacey told her that if she would loan him ten dollars, he would tell her who really killed Nancy Spongent. He told her who the real murderer was. But the reader of this blog post. Me had to write to her to see who it was,

so naturally I did. And again, guys, this is Knox Bronson saying me, not me. The story week goes on. The email goes on at the time she was an ex party girl turned Christian blogger. We had a short correspondence. I shared my own John Spacely stories. She has since turned into a fairly successful author. So the emailer goes on to say, fifty years ago or more, I knew John Spacely in Berkeley, California. He was always a character.

He moved to LA at some point. When David Bowie took his Diamond Dogs tour to Los Angeles in nineteen seventy four, a bunch of us flew down to see the show, staying at the Continental Hyatt. I think some of the details of the seventies are foggy. Anyway, Spacely and I and a couple of other people were drinking in the bar the morning of the show and decided at eleven am to go up to Spacely's room and drink some more. We got on the elevator and Iggy Pop was standing at the back, chin on his chest.

Spacely said, Hey, Jim, how's it going. Iggy shook his head and grunted something, and Spacely said, you've been doing drugs. Same response, You've been drinking. Same response. So Spacely, I did Iggy up to his room and we all went there and had a few beers or whatever. And I doubt Iggy remembers, but I'll never forget it. John Spacey was a cool guy. It's really too bad the needle gut him. Here's a promo of the movie he was in. Okay,

so there's a lot more. Here goes on to say that Spacely was briefly the publisher of Punk Magazine until the drugs took him over. Anyways, he finishes the story by saying that John Spacely told the blogger Don Eden that Sid Vicious was innocent and it was Sid in Nancy's drug dealer who killed Nancy while she was knotted off. Could it be Thanks again, Knox Bronson Knox, thank you

very much. This story jive somewhat with the story that I've long since heard people have been actually writing this on commenting publicly on our recent Instagram post on Sid Vicious about who who really killed Nancy. Our episode deals more with who killed Sid, but there's there's long been rumors that it was a drug dealer, perhaps another junkie. I'm not gonna to get into their names here, but if you want to go onto my Instagram account and you can just look through the content there and you

can see who people are naming. There's one name that keeps coming up. I have not heard John Spacely's name before here. I'm not saying that John Spacely had anything to do with this. I'm not trying to represent Don Eden's commentary as being the truth here, but I think it's interesting because one of the conspiracy involves a name that some of you will recognize and a nameless junkie. John Spacely could very well be that nameless junkie. I don't know, but this story, the death of Nancy Spongeen

and how she actually died, probably deserves some more investigation anyway. Knox, thanks for your email. We appreciate it thanks to the story of the Week.

You got it, Christina, Thanks for the review. MKE two one nine over on Apple podcast Rights. This is a top shelf show. Five stars. I've been listening to Disgrace sand for a few months now, and it's only now just occurred to me what Jake's

real superpower is.
