  • Funny, real, and addictive

    Hello Dysfunction is funny, real, and completely different from the usual podcast stuff. Pata Fria brings a wild, honest energy that keeps the conversations entertaining, unpredictable, and actually worth listening to. The interviews feel natural, the humor hits, and the show has its own Bay Area flavor. Definitely a podcast to follow if you like raw stories, comedy, and real personalities.
