Customer Reviews
Re: Comedian Guests vs. Law Enforcement/affiliated people
Hey first off, love the show. Great mix of comedy and information that helps me and I’m sure many other listeners learn easier. As far as feedback on having comedians as guests versus having law enforcement: I think more intricate stories like the Hawaiian Gardens episode should have more informed guests like cops and DEA agents to add more context. Stories that are just straight up ridiculous like the Charles Voyde Harrelson episode might be a little better with someone who can riff off of the subject matter like a comedian. Hope this is helpful and keep up the good work!
This show lacks substance
This sure sounds like two guys who are high having many tangential conversations. There is hardly any substance to the discussion.
Just No
Dude tries to hard to be funny but it’s just cringe listening
