5.0 out of 5 stars from 392 ratings
  • All of the listeners who failed Morgan’s psych evals for their THT write ins call into this show.

    So I mean it’s pretty interesting. A lot of the people aren’t what I would call “great people”…, but Chris is. And I think he does a good job of non judgmentally trying to steer them right. That said, it’s wild some of these people feel comfortable confessing this stuff for entertainment.
