Appearances Alert: on with Shannon Joy and Awake Nation talking Diddy
If you're too cheap to get a paid subscription, here's your chance to get caught up on my Diddy investigation.

I was on two shows this week talking about my investigation of Sean “Diddy” Combs: The Shannon Joy and Awake Nation.
I come on a few minutes in on Shannon’s show, and I come on about an hour in on Awake Nation.
Since most of the posts related to Diddy are behind the paywall, this is the free subscriber’s chance to get caught up.
On Shannon’s show, we took a deep dive into Sean “Diddy” Combs; if you like name dropping, you’ll love that show.
I referred to Al Capone, Pablo Escobar, Frank Lucas, James “Whitey” Bulger, Tupac Shakur, Vincent Smothers, and more.
What is the connection between them and Diddy; you’ll have to listen to find out.
On Awake Nation, we focused primarily on my reporting on Diddy. We talked about Derrick Lee Smith, the man in the Michigan Department of Corrections suing Diddy.
We talked about Aaron Rogers, the man from the same prison who produced an affidavit backing up Smith.
We talked about Kym Worthy, the Wayne County Prosecutor and Diddy’s alleged fixer.
How do these three tie together? Check out both broadcasts for more.
What you won’t get from listening to these shows are the exclusive interviews with Smith and his alleged accuser, Carli Carpenter.
