Hosted by Wondery · EN
What drives a regular person to risk it all in the criminal underworld? On Wondery's Criminal Lives, host Danny Gold takes you inside the minds of some of America’s most successful black market entrepreneurs. From a larger-than-life steroids kingpin who dodged bullets on his way to the top, to the self described "Original Gay Gangster" who had a gift for numbers and an addiction to luxury, to a surfing smuggler who found zen in the Thai weed trade, each reveals the rules of the game, the adrenaline-fueled highs, and the missteps that brought it all crashing down. Forget what you've seen in the movies. Criminal Lives brings you the unvarnished truth of what it really means to choose a life of crime.
