Few things in life are as timeless as the music of The Beach Boys. They had a magical combination of soaring harmonies and an unepected level of technical sophistication coupled with the constantly-evolving talents of their once-undisputed leader Brian Wilson.
What happened to Wilson when the pressure got to be too much is what we're talking about this week.
This week, we'll tackle a true rags to riches story: Charles Ponzi. While his specific exploits are a lot less remembered than his name, his plucky, can-do attitude in the face of overhwhelming odds gave inspiration to dozens of upstarts with names like Bernie Madoff, Nicholas Cosmo, and Charles Keating.

Will we ever know the truth of it?
