Speaker 1 In 2004, the world of ice hockey was in for a shock.

Speaker 11 And we are live at the Danbury Ice Arena.

Speaker 1 A sleepy city in Connecticut called Danbury was getting its first ever professional hockey team. And the president was this guy.

Speaker 3 Hey, how you doing, pal?

Speaker 1 17 year old AJ Galante.

Speaker 1 But the real boss was AJ's dad, Jimmy, a big shot garbage hauler, loved and feared in Danbury.

Speaker 9 He was intense.

Speaker 10 He can tell you about the weather and it looks like he's staring into your soul.

Speaker 1 And when Jimmy bought his son a hockey team, the world was watching.

Speaker 11 It was a tabloid story that you're going to read no matter what.

Speaker 1 And it's not just the teenage team president that caught people's attention.

Speaker 4 He wanted to break every bone in his body.

Speaker 11 Bone popped out, blood spurted all over the place, throwing him like a rag doll.

Speaker 1 It was the violence.

Speaker 11 It was a very ugly night. Head hitting the ice, shoulder hitting the ice.

Speaker 8 Here at the Danbury Ice Arena. They can't restrain him right now.

Speaker 1 I'm Claire Crofton from the teams at Novel and iHeartRadio. This is the Fighty Pucks.
Join me for the story of the most violent hockey team ever.

Speaker 1 It's a story about what happens when you're prepared to win at any cost.

Speaker 11 Everything was going great until... Literally, one day, it's all over.

Speaker 1 Everything's cloaked in secrecy.

Speaker 11 I don't know what to say, and I don't want to get shot.

Speaker 1 Was there any part of you that felt like the cost of winning was too high?

Speaker 3 Never.

Speaker 13 That was guerrilla warfare.

Speaker 2 At its highest.

Speaker 12 There's the FBI side. There's my side.
And somewhere in the middle's the truth.

Speaker 1 Listen to the fighty pucks, starting on the 11th of May on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 8 I couldn't believe this. Believe it.
It's the end of the world. Believe it.

Speaker 3 Welcome to the jungle.

Speaker 13 From SC, launched to legacy.com. today we're speaking with Dr.
Robert Engelhorn, CEO and president of BMW Manufacturing. And today's topic is location.

Speaker 13 BMW South Carolina produces more BMWs than anywhere else in the world and has just doubled down on their South Carolina investment. So Dr.
Engelhorn, first question: why South Carolina?

Speaker 14 South Carolina is a great place to be. Not only the sun, which is shining most of the time here.
I like the food, I like the atmosphere and the friendliness.

Speaker 14 It's about really the pro-business attitude. Again, a very talented and skilled workhorse going the extra mile.
It's a fantastic place to be.

Speaker 13 You mentioned South Carolina's pro-business government. Tell me more about that.

Speaker 14 Since the beginning, the Department of Commerce is one of our closest partners here in South Carolina. They're doing a fantastic job.

Speaker 14 And the last 30 years, there have been a tremendous momentum of growth.

Speaker 14 Now, looking towards our future investments of 1.7 billion US dollars for electric vehicles here, and this wouldn't have been possible without them.
