Who remembers Leo Sharp? If you do you'll be excited about Clint Eastwood's new project...

Leo or... El Tata, was an American World War II veteran, world renowned horticulturist, and drug courier for a branch of the Sinaloa Drug Cartel...

Sharp became despondent from financial problems with his flower business and was subsequently approached by Mexican laborers at his Michigan farm who solicited him into transporting narcotics for the Sinaloa Drug Cartel in Mexico.

Sharp’s success in eluding the detection of law enforcement for over 10 years while transporting thousands of pounds of cocaine catapulted him into urban legend among drug traffickers who knew of his exploits

Sharp used a Lincoln pick up truck to transport between 100 - 300 kilograms of cocaine at a time from the southern U.S. border to Detroit, Michigan.

The cartel also utilized Sharp to transport drug proceeds in excess of two million dollars per return trip from Michigan to Arizona in the same pick up truck.

"The Mule" is based on Sharp's life and time as a drug mule..The movie comes out December 14th. Check out the trailer here:

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
