BACKFENCE Unhinged: Dayvid Figler

EPISODE 24: Dayvid Figler

You’re about to hear a wild, at times funny, at times gory true crime story. All about a small and short man defending an extra big and tall man—from writer and criminal defense lawyer Dayvid Figler. 

Dayvid takes into the underground tunnels of Vegas where a community of thousands has taken up residence. And his defendant is known as the scary overlord. If you are queased out by gore, maybe skip this one! 

Dayvid was the host of the daily podcast, City Cast Las Vegas, since its inception in 2022. He loves talking about how his infamous city is a vortex worth exploring, and the million (give or take) stories he's collected over his lifetime as a resident there.

BACKFENCE Unhinged is a unique and delightful twist on the storytelling podcast where hosts Andrew and Frayn invite a storyteller on to share an unhinged true story. Then comes the second unhinged part—they dig in and ask questions to get into the behind-the-scenes dirt—finding intersections with some of their own personal anecdotes.

This episode was edited and produced by Julia Oppenheimer. With music created by musician and frontman for Lost Lander, Matt Sheehy. Frayn Masters is executive producer. Frayn Masters & Andrew Dickson are co-hosts and co-creators. The show was recorded at XRAY.fm—find them online or 91.1 or 107.1.
