Description

This week we take it back to the 90s and early 2000s—when St. Louis’ 5th District was lit up with gangs, dope sets, and street violence. Our guests, Joe Crews, Billy Noonan, and Tony Boone, were right in the middle of it.

💀 Murders.
😂 Funny moments.
💊 Dope houses.
👊 Gangsters.
They saw it all—and now they’re telling the stories.

But let’s talk setups:

  • Billy Noonan coming in hot from rural Missouri, American flag flapping proudly while he chain-smokes like it’s a competitive sport.

  • Tony Boone dialing in from the cab of his 18-wheeler, rolling down some lonely Nebraska backroad.

  • Joe Crews showed up in-person… but not to some sterile studio—he joined us in the basement of a bar, the only place fitting for a trip down memory lane through the 5th District.

It’s gritty. It’s raw. It’s entertaining.
