  • Such Disrespectful hosts

    I only listened to the episode about Austin harrouff, but I was super disappointed: it is told in such disrespectful way; the host make the whole time jokes about things that are no fun at all. Very very very bad!

  • Awful hosts

    These are the two most unlistenable hosts of a podcast I’ve ever attempted to listen to. Also, the audio is terrible

  • Sensitive to the family???? Get your facts correct.

    I listened to the case on my family member. The facts were so very incorrect (included the date it even happened) that I almost turned it off immediately. If you'd like to do anything right, maybe it should be the facts of the case. Disgusting. I'd welcome any discussion on said case, and will be trying to contacting you.
