When you talk about scandals that took place in the history of MLB, Pete Rose is one that comes to mind. In Charlie Hustle & The Matter of Pete Rose, we look at his journey that spans over 60 years in this four part series. We get to know more about his rise to stardom in the league, his banishment from the game in 1989 due to betting, and his bid to be reinstated and placed in the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

Throughout the series, we get to know about his career and being baseball's all-time hits leader. We also dig into why he is a polarizing figure in sports. We hear from him as well as interviews he held and commentary from luminaries in the league. It gives us more insight into who this man is beyond what we have known and what he has learned as he has navigated the past decades.

Chameleon is an investigative podcast that takes us into interesting worlds each season whether it was Gallery of Lies, Wild Boys, Dr. Dante Master of Deception, High Rollers, and Hollywood Con Queen. This season, Doctor Miracle is focused on a wellness canter, Miracle Ranch which is in SoCal.

The center promotes itself as a luxury escape that will allow you to navigate life through clean alkaline living. Led by Dr. Robert O. Young, he has acquired a clientele of wealthy people who followed his "groundbreaking" methods of living well. By staying at his facility, he promised that everyone would live well; however, those who did got worse and didn't live an optimized life.

Through legal documents and candid interviews with former patients and employees, law enforcement officials, and affected family members, this series unravels the chilling true story of one man who convinced scores of people that cancer is not a cell but an “acidic, poisonous liquid”, and how his popular “alkaline diet” turned deadly.
