We've said it before, but Garrett and I do think a lot about how blessed we are to do what we do, that we work from our house, our studio, and that while we might be telling stories about dangerous people, our line of work isn't inherently dangerous.
We're not out there putting our lives at risk every day to make a living. Though that is what some people do. For some professionals, danger is a part of the job description. Comes with the territory, right? Whether you're maintaining the law, working as a police officer or breaking it, like working with the mob or doing illegal bookkeeping.

Some professions mean you don't know how the day is going to end. But there's something else that's interesting about these dangerous lines of work. You never know who will come for you. And if it does end in the worst case scenario, say a murder investigation, your greatest enemies become suspects, even though they may be a cover for the people closest to you.

That is what we will be talking about today. So, I want to introduce you to 46-year-old Bruce Weinstein. Now, he was originally from Liberty, New York. Bruce and his family moved to Los Angeles, California, I believe sometime when he was a kid. And that's where he spent much of his formative years.

And while I don't know a ton about Bruce Weinsteins early life, I know that he was the eldest of four siblings and he and his family were really tight. When his brother Steven got older, he decided to start a little family business with his dad. This is one that Bruce himself would join later, though we're not talking about running a laundromat or getting into real estate.

No, Bruce's family ran their own bookkeeping business. A.k.a. this is collecting bets and then paying them off. So say there's a basketball game you feel really confident about or a horse you want to bet on. You might seek out the Weinsteins to place a bet. And this is especially in the days before apps like DraftKings.

And Bruce was really good at his job, mainly because he earned the trust of a lot of his players. Which, let's face it, while this is legal in many states, it can be a bit sketchy. But Bruce probably had some wealthy people making some pretty hefty bets while he was living in Los Angeles.

oh all right you guys we're back we were filming and we have our back door all the way open because daisy likes to go play in the backyard while we were filming and then garrett looked over and there was the biggest deer on our Like concrete.
