I’ve been listening to Brian’s other shows for years, and also listen to a lot of history and true crime stuff for a while so this was a slam dunk to try. I had solid expectations but I’ve been pleasantly impressed. I’ve never heard such a complete and coherent rundown of the JFK tragedy for example and the root of its conspiracies, let alone in an hour. Great work, boys.
