It's a story of fame, greed, wild excess, self-destruction...and blackjack.

In a series of candid and intimate first-person interviews, Carton opens up on how he went from big city success to being arrested by the FBI and charged with conspiracy, wire fraud and securities fraud in 2017. Revealing interviews with many of those who were closest to him, including his former co-host Boomer Esiason, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, and the Boomer & Carton crew of Al Dukes, Jerry Recco and Eddie Scozzare, among others.
