    Operation Varsity Blues: The Unbelievable "Scandal Within The Scandal."
    Oct 10 2024
    The “Operation Varsity Blues Recruiting Scandal” dominated news headlines for months.

    According to the U.S. Government and the national media, rich, famous, entitled parents had done unscrupulous things to allow their kids to attend elite universities like Yale, Georgetown, USC, and others. But the real story is “The Scandal Within The Scandal,” which is nothing like you were led to believe. One parent who lived in Boston was the key for the government to ensnarl into the scandal because that would have allowed all 33 parents to have their cases heard on the East Coast.

    That parent joins Tom Zenner and Kato Kaelin for an explosive interview that will reveal the truth about this scandal. This parent faced 11 felony charges and 180 years in prison! The Netflix movie about this scandal twisted facts to tell a story that wasn’t true because this parent didn’t commit any crimes, and his children were accomplished athletes and students. This episode will have you asking yourself how far you would go to defend your family’s honor and reputation when facing the unbeatable U.S. Justice Department.

    Would you spend your entire life savings, sacrifice a prestigious career, and endure four years of hell? He shares his side of the story, detailing how he was wrongly implicated in the scandal and how he has fought to clear his name. He also discusses his ongoing defamation lawsuit against Netflix, claiming that the documentary Operation Varsity Blues: The College Admissions Scandal falsely portrayed him as knowingly engaging in illegal activity, significantly damaging his reputation. Meet the man who drew a line in the sand and put everything on the line to bring out the truth.

  • Bernie Madoff's $65 Billion Ponzi Scheme From Hell

    Bernie Madoff's $65 Billion Ponzi Scheme From Hell
    Sep 18 2024
    Bernie Madoff was an ambitious, unspectacular kid from Queens who wanted to make a name for himself. He sure did that. The man known as the "Monster of Wall Street" died a disgrace in prison after the elaborate ruse he had pulled off for decades was figured out.

    He had a lot of help pulling off the biggest Ponzi Scheme ever, and a lot of important people looked the other way as he committed his massive fraud, ruining countless lives in the process.
    This incredible Shakespearean tale comes to life in the explosive One Degree of Scandalous episode, which features Tom Zenner and Kato Kaelin.

    Jim Campbell, the author of the best-selling book "Madoff Talks: Uncovering the Untold Story Behind the Most Notorious Ponzi Scheme in History," was the only journalist to communicate with Madoff while he was in prison. Campbell garnered over 400 pages of handwritten correspondence depicting the greed and sociopathic behavior of a man hated by millions.

    How did it start? Why wasn't it stopped in its tracks? When did it almost blow up before 2008? What is the extent of the carnage? How extensive was the human toll? Did Madoff's wife and two sons know what was going on?

    If you watched the blockbuster Netflix docuseries "Madoff: Monster of Wall Street," this is where you can hear first-hand from the man who made that show possible. It's an episode you will want to watch multiple times!

  • Chilling Inside Details of Brian Kohberger and the Idaho Murders

    Chilling Inside Details of Brian Kohberger and the Idaho Murders
    Sep 10 2024
    The foremost authority on this True Crime mystery reveals the horrific details of the Idaho Killings. New York Times best-selling author Howard Blum has covered every aspect of the case since the murders occurred in November 2022, and he lays out the moment-by-moment account of what he believes happened in spine-tingling detail.

    Brian Kohberger sits in jail, waiting to be tried in 2025. While a weapon has never been found, the incriminating circumstantial evidence seems overwhelming, pointing to the method and motive Blum believes Khoberger had. Every aspect of this horrible crime is described by the award-winning journalist who knows the families of the victims, the prosecutor, and the key characters in Moscow, Idaho, and he's sat through every court hearing.

    For anyone fascinated and shaken by this story, listening to this episode of One Degree of Scandalous with Tom Zenner and Kato Kaelin might make it clear that the police and prosecutors have found the right person responsible for this crime—but could Kohberger somehow walk on a technicality of how DNA evidence was acquired?

  • Could JonBenét Ramsey's Killer Be Found In One Day By This DNA Expert?

    Could JonBenét Ramsey's Killer Be Found In One Day By This DNA Expert?
    Sep 2 2024
    The murder of JonBenét Ramsey occurred 28 years ago, and nobody has been arrested. JonBenét's father, John Ramsey, singled out CeCe Moore, one of the world's top DNA genealogy experts, as the one person he felt could solve the case in a matter of hours.

    CeCe joins Tom Zenner and Kato Kaelin for a riveting conversation about how she uses the science she's mastered to crack cases. Her impact is astounding - freeing innocent people imprisoned for crimes they did not commit and actually identifying guilty scumbags that belong behind bars for life. CeCe has strong opinions about the Idaho murders and primary suspect Brian Kohberger and gives her opinion of what would be different if the advanced DNA technology available today had been around in 1994 for the O.J. Simpson saga.

    This is a must-listen to episode of One Degree of Scandalous for True Crime and Pop Culture Scandal enthusiasts.

    At the 42:00 mark, we talk about an incredible dog rescue non-profit run by an amazing woman and a close friend of Tom and Kato named Christine. It's called "Wishbone Dog Rescue." Please check out this link. If you are a dog lover or live in Southern California and are looking to rescue a dog and give it a home, reach out to Christine. With the support of her fiance, Kyle, and her team, Christine has saved hundreds of dogs from horrible situations and placed them in safe environments with great families.

  • Kato Kaelin Returns To The McDonald's O.J. Simpson Took Him An Hour Before The Crime

    Kato Kaelin Returns To The McDonald's O.J. Simpson Took Him An Hour Before The Crime
    Aug 15 2024
    Roughly an hour before O.J. Simpson went to Nicole Brown Simpson’s condo in Brentwood and killed his ex-wife and Ron Goldman, Simpson drove to what would become the most infamous McDonald’s in the world.

    With him in the passenger seat of his Bentley was Nicole’s friend Kato Kaelin, who lived in a bungalow on O.J.’s property on Rockingham. The trip was eery and odd and played an integral role in the timeline of events on June 12, 1994, and in the trial that made Kato a household name. In this episode of One Degree of Scandalous, Kato returns to that very same McDonald’s on Santa Monica Blvd with Tom Zenner for the first time in over 30 years. See, hear, and feel the emotions Kato describes having as he recalls everything from that fateful night.

    Also, in this episode, Tom and Kato take fans on another journey to another one of the pivotal sights of the O.J. Simpson saga — Mezzaluna, the former hip and chic restaurant in Brentwood Ronald Goldman worked, and where he departed with the glasses Nicole’s mother had left there. This is a pulse-pounding and mesmerizing episode that people who grew up watching the trial and following the events have been waiting for.

    Was returning to these sights a therapeutic process for Kato — or a journey that regretfully triggers more questions about why O.J. took him there in the first place? The answers are right here.

    This is the "One Degree of Scandalous" Podcast! Get Your True Crime and Pop Culture Scandal Fix along with the quintessential coverage of the O.J. Simpson saga right here every week! https://www.youtube.com/@UCRBCybyvysV0vLM_259A19w
