{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"The Best of Long Shot Stories","description":"Long shots don't always pan out the way you hoped. Sometimes they catch fire. Sometimes they mug you.\n\nShauna McGarry, a TV writer who can't shake her mother's thrift-store instincts, talks herself into a $2,500 used hot tub from a shady Craigslist dealer named Dan. Things don’t turn out so great.\n\nDavid Crabb waitered through the days after 9/11 at one of the only open restaurants in lower Manhattan, listening to strangers unburden themselves over candlelight. By the end of the week he'd saved $900 for a U-Haul, and on the walk home from his last shift, drunk and carrying a magnum of wine, he felt an arm clamp around his neck and something jab into his ribs.\n\nLeave your reactions and find episode details and music credits at risk-show.com/podcast/the-best-of-long-shot-stories-1 \n\nYou can find all of our special series episodes at risk-show.com/specialseries \n\nBe Part of RISK!\n\n🎟 See RISK! live⁠ on September 8, 2026, in New York City\n\n✍️ Pitch your story⁠\n\n❤️ Support us on Patreon⁠\n...","author_name":"Risk!
