I’m from Chicago and listen faithfully.
Boston Confidential is definitely worth a listen! Barry does a great job in sharing the facts and his relatable commentary on true crime stories…I grew up in the Boston area and taking a ride in the “way back machine” allows me to hear stories from a new perspective, with details I often hadn’t heard.
My only gribe is he constantly repeats himself. His thoughts over and over… but then again I honestly think it’s a Boston cultural thing great podcast
I love Boston Confidential!
Barry is an excellent Host & has the ability to paint such a clear picture with his words, and it makes him great to listen to. 🫡🫡
