The Man Who Robbed 200 Banks & ESCAPED Prison | Noel “Razor” Smith

This week on The Terry Stone Connection, Terry sits down with one of Britain’s most notorious former armed robbers... Noel “Razor” Smith.


Big thank you to our Sponsors, Bradburys Group | GRi-24 Protective Threat Intelligence - https://bradburysgroup.com/gri-24-protective-threat-intelligence-alerts/


From the streets of South London to robbing banks, escaping prison and spending over 30 years behind bars, Noel’s life story is as brutal, chaotic and unbelievable as it gets.


In this episode, Noel opens up about the violence of 1970s detention centres, the criminal underworld that shaped him, life inside with Charlie Bronson, and the madness that eventually led to him receiving eight life sentences.


But this isn’t just a story about crime.


Noel also talks honestly about the moments that broke him, the personal loss that forced him to look at life differently, and how writing gave him a way out when it felt like there wasn’t one.


This is a raw, intense and powerful conversation about crime, prison, survival, regret and redemption.


Noel “Razor” Smith has lived a life most people couldn’t imagine… and now he’s here to tell the story properly.


Sit back, enjoy the episode, and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
