  • Great podcast

    I am a Dexter fan to the core. I don't know why I never thought to look for Dexter, but I just found this one great podcast, but I do want to say that the New York ripper is the police detective partner the guy. It's kinda like how Dexter worked at the police station and was the butcher. Same situation. Is why Leon has so much pull at the police station.
