More on the Crocus scandal, a special interview with a CFL legend and more: TGCTS this week

More this week on the Crocus insider emails from 2003 - the story no one else will report.

Correpondence from former CEO Sherman Kreiner and Former VP Bob Jones show how far Fund managers would go to keep the truth about their precarious finances from unsuspecting investors - such as mislead and intimidate reporter Krista Erickson, and hint at legal action against the Free Press (which led then-editor Nick Hirst to send a sample of the "many letters" of complaint he received about Crocus to Kreiner). On Tuesday Paul Sveinson, a shareholder/analyst, will again join the show to review the material and look deeper into which companies got free money without proper Board oversight.

This weeks lineup:


Monday : Frank the Italian Barber will shock the world with his story of how a guy from Corydon could win a bet on a team from New York. With 97.5 million viewers, the big game stands as the second-most watched show in US TV history.

And for those of you who are interested, here is a link to a New York Times review of the Super Bowl ads:

Tuesday: Paul Sveinson with more of the inside story about the collapse of the Crocus Fund, direct from the Receivers report to the court - details the MSM cannot bring itself to report on; and from Los Angeles, Dan Denton of Frozen Pond Productions with the latest on the writers strike and his perspective on the Giants upset of the Patriots.

Wednesday: CTV's Crimewatch reporter Kelly Dehn is always engaging and informative on his weekly segment with us. And the returning Shannah-Lee will be providing a special report on an art program that provides quality rehabilitation for medical patients suffering depression.

Thursday: Around 4.20 PM, an exclusive interview with former CFL great, QB Chuck Ealey, the focus of a fabulous new book 'Choice of Colours' by John Danakis of the University of Manitoba.
