    Jamie tells it like it is and stick with the cadence from the start to finish. It’s hilarious also thought provoking at times. I love his interaction with Michael Biehn and hope he has more with him soon. Just raw, no frills, podcasting keeping it real. This one just became my favorite out of all the other comedy podcasts.
