One of my recurring characters on Tom Scharpling’s The Best Show On WFMU is the lovable Scag Winesack, retired police sergeant/chief, F.B.I., and current/former private investigator. Misguided, old, beyond grizzled, and the proud recipient of three triple bypass surgeries and countless back operations, Scag lives on a boat with his parrot. I hope to turn his voice into a humorous column for a lucky magazine - the character a shifting amalgam of every crime fiction, gritty police drama, and street hassle cliché I can come up with.

Listen to the latest Scag Winesack installment here (2:01:40 into the Oct. 4th show).
