Not Consensual - Jim Krakouer

Ever wonder what happens when the final whistle blows and the real trouble begins? Crime in Sports digs into the bizarre, shocking, and often downright stupid criminal misadventures of professional athletes. Hosts James Pietragallo and Jimmie Whisman, both working comedians, serve as your guides through this strange intersection of stadiums and courtrooms. They do the heavy lifting, sifting through court documents and bizarre headlines so you don't have to. Each episode focuses on a different sports figure who fumbled their legacy not on the field, but in the eyes of the law. The tone is less somber true crime and more like a conversation at a bar, where disbelief and laughter are the main reactions to the tales of heists, fights, frauds, and inexplicable decisions that landed these stars in handcuffs. You'll hear the full story, from their rise to fame to their spectacular fall from grace, all delivered with a sharp comedic edge that finds the absurdity without glorifying the crime. This podcast operates on a simple, compelling premise: talent is no shield against terrible life choices. New episodes arrive weekly, offering a fresh dose of schadenfreude and solid research, proving that sometimes the most entertaining games are the ones played out in a courtroom.
