Being the head of security for a televangelist can be pretty scary\u2026 apparently. In late 2008, Chris Coleman received a threatening email. The writer was upset with his boss, Joyce Meyer. They wrote that if Joyce didn\u2019t stop preaching the \u201cbullshit,\u201d they would kill Chris. If not Chris, they might kill his wife, Sheri and their sons Garett and Gavin. Chris had no idea who could have sent the message. Like, literally no idea. And he was the head of security.

\nThen Kristin tells us about Gerard Finneran, who boarded a flight from Buenos Aires to New York City, eager to knock back some drinks. He drank several, then got up to serve himself even more. The flight attendants informed him that passengers weren\u2019t allowed to serve themselves drinks. (Duh.) Later, they cut Gerard off. He didn\u2019t take it well.

\nAnd now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.
