Episode description

In this gripping episode, we delve into the tumultuous lives of two infamous figures: Gary Glitter, the disgraced glam rock icon, and Tony Sirico, the actor who played Paulie Walnuts in The Sopranos.

Gary Glitter, once adored for his glittering stage persona, fell from grace after his horrifying crimes were exposed. We explore his meteoric rise to fame, his shocking conviction for child sexual abuse, and the cultural reckoning that followed.

Next, we will explore the story of Tony Sirico. Before becoming a beloved TV star, Sirico was deeply entrenched in organized crime. Arrested numerous times, he eventually turned his life around, channeling his past into his role as the sharp-tongued, complex Paulie Walnuts.

Through these stories, we discuss themes of fame, morality, and the duality of human nature. What drives some to betray trust and others to seek redemption? Join us as we navigate the dark and fascinating lives of these two famous figures.
