  • Great Podcast

    Really enjoy this podcast. I’m a fan of the desert scene and this host has been a very interesting promoter of his region and it’s folklore and stories.

  • Speaks wisdom

    Longtime fan from Antelope Valley. Really enjoyed talk about Freemasons, as I used to ponder them as a cult, from looking at headstones in old cemetaries
