Summary

Nick De Noia dreamed of becoming a successful choreographer, a goal he attained through his sexy yet classy routines for the Chippendales all-male revue. Unfortunately, that job also brought him into the crosshairs of the dance troupe's controlling owner, Steve Banerjee. With the story recently revived in the Hulu series "Welcome to Chippendales," we're diving deep into the details to sort out the fact from the fiction in this sordid tale.

"Crimes of the Centuries" is a podcast from the Obsessed Network exploring forgotten crimes from times past that made a mark and helped change history.
