If you aren't cheating, you aren't trying. Maybe you've heard that expression a time or two, and it would stand to reason that a good time to try that concept out would be in a fishing competition. I mean, after all, who's going to get hurt too bad by a little cheating? It turns out a whole town could get hurt.

And that's why when a dynamic duo and a fishing event in Ohio pursue victory by any means necessary, it becomes just as necessary for tournament organizers to bring down the hammer. I'm Steve Buscemi, and you're listening to Big Time, an Apple original podcast from Peace of Work Entertainment and Campside Media in association with Olive Productions.

Hi, Steve Buscemi here. You know, long before I was an actor, I used to work as an usher at a movie theater in Valley Stream, Long Island. My job at the Bel Air Theater was to maintain order during screenings. I'd walk the theater aisles, flashlight in hand, pretending I was some sort of authority figure. Now, during these patrols, I'd watch the same movies over and over again.

You'll hear stories of underdogs and misfits who have somehow mustered up the courage to star in their own story. Now, I'm not saying these characters that we're going to follow are heroes. Like Fredo or Sal, they're complicated, dangerous, and flawed. They make questionable decisions, but they do it on their own terms.

To kick off the show, we have the story of a high school popularity contest and the mother-daughter duo willing to risk it all for the plastic crown. This is Big Time, an Apple original podcast from Peace of Work Entertainment and Campside Media in association with Olive Productions. Here to tell you more is reporter Rajiv Gola.

And when you watch something repeatedly, you start to notice the minutiae, like an actor's subtle facial expressions or the composition of a particular shot. It was almost like I had my own personal film class. So in between sweeping up popcorn and changing the titles on the marquee, my appreciation for the supporting character really came into focus.

I mean, these roles often go uncelebrated and live in the shadow of the leading characters. Take, for example, one of my favorite actors, John Cazale. Now, you know him as Fredo from the Godfather movies. Now, Cazale doesn't always get the same sort of name recognition as Al Pacino or Marlon Brando, but maybe that's because he was so good at disappearing into the role. He became Fredo.

So one night during my shift, I'm watching Sidney Lumet's Dog Day Afternoon for like the 10th time, starring the one and only Al Pacino. And as I'm watching one night, I realize, wow, the actor playing Sal, Pacino's long-haired partner in crime, is the same actor who played Fredo, John Cazale. I mean, I almost didn't recognize him. He looked and acted totally different in this role.

I mean, I was blown away. He blended into the story, shaping and expanding the narrative, but he was never the star. Always a supporting role. But to me, those fringe characters are fascinating. They make me lean in and ask, what's their story? What's going on with them? Well, I am pleased to introduce you to Big Time, a show that shines the spotlight directly on those outcast characters.

Hi, Steve Buscemi here. Over the years, I've played a lot of outcasts. You know, mouthy hitmen, bungling kidnappers, real chameleons, sometimes actual chameleons. And I think these fringe characters should be celebrated every once in a while. So I'm excited to introduce you to a show that takes these supporting roles and brings them center stage.

Elaborate robberies. Who steals bees? I steal from the rich. I don't give it to the poor, but I give it to myself. And some of the most barbaric behavior you can imagine.
