Reviews

4.4 out of 5 stars from 13 ratings
  • Salt meets earth

    Luke’s disdain for the sycophants and charlatans of the current political elite is real. As a history-literate former Marine and DC resident, his perspective is invaluable.

  • Luke’s Hatred Overwhelms

    Luke pretends that this podcast isn’t a blatant attempt to intimidate and humiliate Jewish people for about five seconds. It’s sad to see this man become so consumed by hatred.
