    • Live Nation and the Quiet Control of Live Entertainment 🍸 Cocktails & Conspiracies 189
      Feb 14 2026

      In this episode of Cocktails & Conspiracies, we sit down with Tommy D, a New Jersey nightlife promoter and EDM pioneer who rose from throwing underground house parties as a teenager to running some of the most influential clubs and events on the East Coast.


      Tommy walks us through his journey from grassroots promotion to building Juice Entertainment, packing out major venues, winning the number one sound system in the world, and helping shape club culture long before EDM went mainstream. But as his success grew, so did the resistance.


      At the center of this conversation is the Meadowlands project — a massive festival deal that Tommy says would have made him one of the first major independent EDM festival promoters on the East Coast. According to Tommy, that moment marked the beginning of a 15-year legal and personal battle with Live Nation and Ticketmaster, companies he claims used their dominance to block artists, control ticketing, and eliminate independent competition.


      We explore allegations of monopolistic practices, industry pressure tactics, and how access — not talent — determines who survives in live music. Tommy also shares why artists and promoters rarely speak out, how ticket prices have spiraled out of reach for fans, and why recent Senate scrutiny and outspoken artists like Kid Rock may signal a turning point.


      This isn’t just a story about one promoter. It’s a broader look at power, consolidation, and what happens when culture, commerce, and control collide — and why the fight over live entertainment affects artists, fans, and consumers everywhere.

    • Why the Most Injured Team in the NFL Keeps Breaking 🍸 Cocktails & Conspiracies 188
      Feb 7 2026

      A decade of elite training, cutting-edge recovery, and unlimited resources — yet the most injured team in the NFL keeps breaking in the same way. In this episode of Cocktails & Conspiracies, we sit down with Peter Cowan to explore a theory most people never think to ask: what if chronic exposure to electromagnetic fields — not turf, training, or bad luck — is quietly weakening NFL players at the cellular level? From mitochondrial energy and collagen hydration to sleep disruption, immune activation, and infrastructure upgrades near practice facilities, this conversation examines whether “safe” energy standards are missing the most important question — and why elite athletes may be the first to show the damage.
