Occasionally a book comes out that catches my eye, so I get a hold of the author and share some insights on the book and look beyond the printed word into the the writer's process and subject matter. Hopefully hearing the writers talk about their work will inspire you to pick up the work.

This week I had the opportunity to talk with Brian Tuohy, author Larceny Games: Sports Gambling, Game Fixing and the FBI. Based on over 400 previously unreleased FBI files, this book reveals more dirt on professional sports within its pages than ESPN has broadcast throughout the entirety of its existence. Brian told us how the FBI has dropped all active investigations into sports fixing and gambling, a 400 billion dollar cottage industry for organized crime.
