that was a great guest - knows his stuff without being over emotional or political
He's a professional investigative journalist.
I’ve read a number of Peter books over the years all brilliant reads. And grew up with a few of the people he has written about. His books are all true facts no bs. ✍️📕💯🔥
Fantastic podcast Shaun ..please do a part two .. I could listen to this all day …well informed properly researched facts . One of your best guests 👏
Shauns very passionate on these issues. Great guest very knowledgeable. Iv wanted to know about Curtis Warren for ages. Nice one!
Gang War is a great book, should be made into a Netflix series.
Had some bad feedback on audible
Wanted a decent doc on Curtis Warren for time. Top one mate. From Scotland
I was reading a book on cocaine addiction the other day
After the first few lines I was hooked.
Looking forward to this. I read the book cocky about Curtis Warren, great read a this should be good🙂👍
your guest is very well spoken and a pleasure to listen to
what country are you from?
I really enjoyed that podcast,thanks to you both.
Shaun is usually so passive and quiet, he was on fire with this subject, so close to his heart!
Im Shauns age and is still passionate on this subject he he he also made a killing on it back in the day easy dollar
😂
I think Shaun was stroking his bellend under the table at times over cocky
This is a good story, there’s loads of other stories from the same era in Liverpool Manchester and Leeds. I’ve read a few of this guys books, cocky is well worth a read more than once
Another great listen.
Super liking this 1
Keep up the good work
What an eye opener this interview is 😮
Peter walsh knows his underworld !!!!! Enjoyable podcast 👌
Great Podcast, Interesting n Informative, Thanks Guys. Defo will read the book.
Unreal Interview love read book now!!!
Powder wars is an unreal book and a real insight into the Liverpool Underworld. Warren is mentioned but it gets deeper than him! 👌
Get it up your hooter 🤠
Good book 👍
Powder wars is a great book by Paul Grimes
Warren opened up the Columbian Cartels into Europe and beyond ;(
@@Theoriginalbigbrillo Cocky is a legend in his own right and quoted: This is the only thing that gets me out of bed everyday. 😆
Fascinating guest; so knowledgeable about the trend and the market. Thank you all for a great podcast.
Love the Curtis Warren content would love to hear more about this guy followed his story for a few years.
hes a super grass
@@tezza8061 proof?
@@tezza8061 hahaha you sausage! How does a grass spend that much time in jail you absolute. You sound like a right laugh to sit and chat with
@@tezza8061Don’t be a dickhead everyday.. have a day off.
Peters book Gang war is excellent.
I bought and read the book Cocky some ten years ago. Good stuff.
Read Powder Wars by Paul Grimes ;)
Recommended 👍👍
the most indept informative TCP so far .that was the most interesting and fascinating history-lesson i ever had. thx for all the knowledge u2 provided us with! peter nd shaun incredible interview
love nd peacef rom vienna (austria)
This is like Summerslam 1994 Undertaker vs Undertaker..who is the real one?
😂😂😂😂😂 quality mate👍
Can’t watch the podcast now 😂😂
@@Aza5164 Well the jokes aside, I hope you do. Mr Attwood has got me through lockdown with his hard work. Imagine one day they let cocky out, only one man would have the right format and questions and we are on his channel. It would be the true crime equivalent of Brando going on letterman.
@@jackjohnson2730 your right about Shaun and thus channel. I'm holding out for the Bronson exclusive ha
Hahah
Fantastic insight
Great podcast. I’ve read the Cocky book a few times.
Excellent incite. TY
🎩👍😻It's a very nice way of reusing books and saving our environment..
Francis Morland would make an excellent guest. He wrote the art of smuggling. He was smuggling Hashish into the UK using his sculptures to conceal it
RIP WILDMAN
Great Listen lad.
you know what pisses me off Yes they have business people to get the drugs and they are looked up to with respect running around in posh cars and wearing the best clothes and the drug addicts (my son was one) was looked down on as if he had leprosy .The hell this put me his mother through was and still is a nightmare as it is for him as he has lost family who wont have anything to do with him . So very very sad.Those at the top are the lowest of the low not the junkies they are vulnerable people who get hooked and end up robbing etc to feed the habit. their life is over really as they dont just lose respect of family they lose their soul. Heartbreaking .
Miss wild man. He added a lot to some interviews and was a legit man.
Agreed
Me too, toasting a beer right now to the big man Mr Mahoney 💪🏼
The podcast he fell asleep on still cracks me up today!!! He's a legend!
@@kyallen7401 110% pmsl haha legend
@@kyallen7401 fuckin oath. Man. Wish he ate a little less.. might still be with us all. He asks some simple but really good questions because if his experiences
Love the channel Shaun, followed you since day 1. This chap is like your dressed down double 😂 like you’re speaking to a casually dressed version of yourself lool
Unreal content 📈
Shaun Attwood guest: Peter Walsh: *Curtis Warren's Story* Liverpool 🇬🇧 UK appreciate your videos Listening from Mass USA TYVM 💙 Shaun
Peters books are unputadownable if that is even a word, proper good author
Looking forward to this day before my birthday I live in jersey so I’m interested in this he’s a clever guy
I love the old guitar amps you've got Shaun. Are you a guitar player?
Let's play a game!
Take a shot or a toke every time this guy says any of these 6 words!
Cannabis, cocaine, heroin, crack, ecstasy and Warren! 🥃💨
Another great pod as per usual!! Would be good to have Peter on again👍👍
Absolutely loved this podcast Shaun💯 Could drive around listening to you guys chat for days if petrol wasn't so expensive.
Thank you!
Best podcast ever
Can you get Peter to do a Paul Massey one also. He wrote a great book that features him heavily.
Please insert *link to Shaun's mums book*
He does a great service for us all and amazing guests.
One of the best yet well done to you both 🇮🇪
I met Curtis once.
I had an argument with him about a car parking space. I was 5ft 11’ and skinny as a rake. Cocky’s neck was bigger than my thighs! I didn’t know who he was but I was angry and gave him a right mouthful.
Curtis never flinched, he just backed down, was very polite and moved his car.
My mates waiting in the car nearby were all laughing saying “do you know who that was”..I saw a pic of Curtis a few months later in the Echo and it really was him.
I don’t know you Curtis but if you ever read this, thanks for not reacting & kicking the sh*t out of me! Seriously I was younger then and I admit, was well out of order, so whatever anyone says about you, respect to you!
People like that don’t bother getting worked up over incidents like that
Especially with the police already breathing down their necks
He couldn't fight for toffee
@@andrewbenyon68 lol didn’t he kill someone in a prison fight 😂
Great podcast
Shauns breathing loudly killed me 😫
Peter needs too do an audiobook of Manchester gang war
A quote from Curtis is it gets me out of bed in the morning lah 🙃
I've read cocky good read 📚 brilliant work shuan all the best Paul
Thanks 4 your reply I've been clean 2YEARS now and all that seems to work is your stuff so as a 51years old ex addict. You have done some amazing work with me the way I think now I keep away from everyone they say not 2 isolate your self I've had 2 everyone I know takes something it's crap sitting in a empty room my mate from years back @no drugs or drink let's me stay there or I would be back inside the streets around here r v dangerous and trying to tell someone who just woke u up drunk spitting on me calling me a smack rat next night came back with his friends but my mate a tinny bit like WILDMAN and once he starts well you know sorry 4 long txt but THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR REPLYS AND ADVICE greetings from Douglas Isle of man Paul THANK YOU SO MUCH GOD BLESS
Cheers 🍻 again for your reply wow you don't know how much it means to me
Great podcast
Shaun get Mickley francis from Manchester from the guvnors book who Peter walsh helped write
Mcfc ok
Bought the cocky book prob 15+ years ago, nice little blast from the past
Need part 2 ASAP
Loved his book -Gang warfare brilliantly written , based on true facts .. if you know, you know .
Most of these books are waffle and relay heavily on snitches chatting shite .. about 25% of its truth or near it the rest is fiction or hearsay .. like most court cases when the media do write ups on them
when Curtis got arrested it didn't make a dent on the Liverpool drug trade.
Been following Shaun for a long time he works really hard to keep getting top guests not just for the uk followers but USA and worldwide , he’s top of his game , People lie numbers don’t . Fact!
😂
Great author 💯
I had heard all the nonsense associated with the so-called podcast wars but I actually rather enjoyed this interview and one thing which strikes me about Shaun is he knows how to pick a guest. I also read Cocky years ago and it was a great book. Peter Walsh certainly knows his stuff.
Fair play good podcast👍
be waiting on this one ..
Great pod-cast again Shaun, one of the best, but once again The QSG Manchester (60s 70s and 80s) came up again, but you have never done a film on then, the best book I have seen is by Jimmy Donnelly, Inside The Quality Street Gang - Jimmy The Weed, please Shaun get him on before its toooo late.
Thanks for the tip!
Great content as always! They didn't find the c'caine. 😄
😁
Fantastic pod cast exposing the smack dealers of liverpool
I fully agree with those who say wildman is a big miss💙 rest in power big fella
Really interesting
This guy really knows his onions.
Shame the host had to sermonise so much
I was born in Liverpool, lived next door to another notorious Lpool family (Fitzgibbon's) they were pretty thick, Warren wasn't, he dressed down, lived an onoxious exsitence and kept a low profile but like all gangsters he was sold out by his crew (or his associates) Glennon/Bennett/Hass...the Ungis (this was the turf war 95-97) for me personally it's a sad indictment to Liverpool that these lowlives exist as a working class person this type of criminality doesn't have to be a final option, it's a choice hence why they don't deserve approbation but derision.
very true, they ruin every conmunity they touch and cause so much harm and misery
@@siduk2636 scousers ruined my community with their hard drugs and sprayed weed half the kids I knew growing up smoking that haze r schizophrenic now
@@watsappenin2865 its the strains too mate, alot of these strains are modified and way too strong. in holland alot of kids have psychosis and mental health issues.
moderation is one thing but some people arent meant to smoke certain types of weed. it really is a messed up thing, alot of scousers are on coke. its messed up being schizophrenic and ruins lives, hope your mates get better
I read the Cocky book the guy being interviewed wrote and the Dutch and British Police said when they raided Curtis Warren’s big house in Holland it was filled with nothing but the some basic essentials just a couch a T.V in the corner, his bed and a few other essentials because he was raised with nothing and basically not really domesticated he didn’t really know how to furnish a house, like putting nice pictures up ornaments and nice decorations etc. All he knew was to put the basic living items in his house, because he’d never been shown how to live.

Bloody interesting
There is a guy called Tommy Smith who organised all of the big acid house parties in Blackburn in the 90s if u can find him that would be an interview last I heard he is living in India :)
While wire taps are not allowed to be used in evidence in UK courts , it doesn’t stop the police using wire taps to gather intelligence ...
As someone who lives in Jersey, I know someone who served time at HMP La Moye in Jersey at the same time as Curtis Warren and said Curtis was shagging a screw. There is an article on this to back it up. Pretty sure Curtis got another short charge and the screw involved got the sack.
I like Peter Walsh I've read a number of his books powder wars being 1 of his best 👍
Cocky is a great read.
Top book
Peter Walsh is a great writer .
In respect of Curtis , I reckon his money is or was held by third parties . I reckon Colin Smith held a lot of it , or at the very least many of his secrets , but he was killed in 2007 .
The truth of it is that Curtis will probably get out and have a bit of walking round money , but no way will he have 200m stashed away
I use to deal Hashish over 20 years ago with my brother. A deal went sour & my Bro took out the guy with an axe. Still in jail 22 years later
Madness
44.24 yeah rhyming slang...."a cows a gary " used to be a popular way of ordering a certain drink back in the day......until some certain someone was exposed as a nonce.....so a "cows a gary " is a cows calf of gary glitter.....or half of bitter please bar man
The cocky watchman, great read for anyone interested in this story, government have done experimental trial providing heroin to addicts in a number of areas in the uk to see if it effected the crime rates, they said at the time they would roll it out if it were a success, it was a massive success bringing crime down by up to 80% in some areas, they've done this twice now i believe but haven't rolled it out, the amount of lives wrecked not because of the drugs but because of the money is outrageous for what is at the end of the day no different to drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes is really annoying and quite sad, just think of the prisons no longer needed or its staff & the police they wouldn't need to police these crimes, that really is a double standard, it's just a matter of time as it clearly works everywhere its been tried it's been a success, it's probably not changed because of the massive industry behind it!
That's why they won't do it, if they roll it out ( which I am 100% behind BTW ). There would be too many lost jobs from the present infrastructure.
I've been on methadone for about 19 years, and have been an on and off heroin and crack for over 20 years, I'll be honest more off than on, I don't have a criminal record etc, but the times I've been bad, it's my family that have took the brunt, and if they legalized and prescribed medicinal heroin I'd go to that and come off the methadone.
The money was all over the place .. nearly 30 years have passed .. I bet the majority of it has drifted away .. tied up in property in other peoples names businesses and company’s stocks and shares .. back then you could do as you please .. today you it’s completely different .. lot of people walking around worth a lot of money on paper thanks to him .. a proper spiders web .. but a very dangerous vipers nest
Shawn I'm shocked you don't know anything about encrochat I have deep and extensive knowledge of it and other platforms. Maybe I should come on the pod?
His book Gang War is a fascinating read if you’ve got any interest in the Manchester scene.
I've read that book a few times. Very good book but he got some the facts wrong in the book but being from Manchester myself and already knowing about a lot of the people and stories in the book i could just piece the facts together myself to make sense out of what he got mixed up with other people/incidents.
@@Red-Rambo Have you read Shooters by Ben Black?
@@tomj5514 no i haven't read it yet. A friend of mine has that book but he said it was nothing new but i will give it a read at some point and give it my own judgement.
@@Red-Rambo kind of carries on where Gang War finishes.
@@tomj5514 ye that's what I've been told. I will give it read tho.
I hope he gets the facts right!!!
Loads more waffle .. just spiced a few things up .. most of it is bullshit
He did the Guv'nors book which launched a genre.
Put this on as I went to sleep. The guest very calm and mature and explains stories with gravitas. Sean needs to shut up with his excited little child interjections at full squealing volume.
Respect to curtis warren cosa nostra
There's only one person who can tell the story properly.
Fascinating. I just bought Drug War. More of this Shaun. I believe there is another British narco author who appeared on Joe Rogan that would make a good guest.
RIP wild man 👨
Sorry but Steve M is not out of Manchester, also loaded magazine had a write up on Steve and cocky in Holland!
Actually since encrypted phone got busted the drugs on the streets have been crap and grateful cos I've been clean ever since. So it's the first time I'm going to thank the French 👍
He told the kids to burry the lead ingots and they tryed to sell them instead thats how they new
Been next door to cutis in Garth jail a few decades ago
When talking about the phone tapping and the issues with slang I’m surprised he didn’t mention it was also the fact they used scouse back slang as well as standard uk slang which meant an officer from Liverpool who knew how to speak it had to travel to Holland to help them out as even the English officers who were there were struggling with it.
Yeh I thought he was going to say something similar or that the Dutch couldn’t understand their thick Scouse accents
Indeed! Those Dutch police didn’t have a....fabuking clabue....when it came to the scouse chat!
was released in 2007 from the dutch prison.
I dont know this shaun guy to well, was his dad a D J jimmy saville .years ago .in the 1980.s
you mention knives or the word gun ,and shauns face goes funny. And the person being interveiwed ,just looks in weird ness .
He's a strange 1
Back then I remember my big cousin who has unfortunately been killed now. I was a teenager and I remember that Liverpool had so much heroin and cocaine that when they found out that he was a large dealer. I was there when he was on the old first mobiles Vodafone flipphone and he come off the phone shocked and though he had a few quid he never had cash for what they they were offering and couldn't believe how cheap and the scousers never really knew us and were throwing kilos and kilos and when you broke it down to ounces of heroin that was £900 at the time were we are from and after breaking it to ounces it worked out £300 to £350 depending on the strength. So after my cousins first pick up laid on he was able to pay up front after his first time.
Can anyone remember when the there was 3 or 4 celtic v Liverpool testimonials happened just after 2000 I was down with my dad to Liverpool for a game. But I will never forget that they had so many testimonials. I found out by my cousin that each testy game busses was packed with drugs and I don't know to this day but people said that the games then was intentional for drug runs and I remember after a bust the heroin was 83% pure
Imagine your job is making stories about another man
