Having “Jerry” Blaine is traitorous. I will never listen to this pathetic podcast again.
Love the podcast but music is a ti y but distracting. Maybe turn down a little. Also I’m listening to older eps so maybe that’s already been addressed…
I enjoy the theme of the show but the interviewer constantly interrupts the interview with loud bassy “yeah”s and “mhm”s. Some times he will say “yeah” , “mhm” ten times before the person can even finish a sentence 🤦🏻♂️making the show borderline unlistenable.
Ralph is a top-rate-salt-of-the-earth guy, he knows his guests and research’s who they are, where they’ve been and what they’ve done. And it shows in every episode of his podcast.
Just listened to Black Dahlia. Wow!
And great to hear Mike Dawson’s voice and that he is producing the podcast. Nice!!
