  • Love it!

    One of the only pods where I get to the end of every episode disappointed that it’s the end. The people that are being interviewed are so incredibly interesting and the boys know when and when not to interrupt. They ask questions that you actually want to know the answers to, genuinely enjoyable listen even when you don’t know the guest!

  • A background in journalism?!

    Listened to first episode. It took the hosts 16.5 mins to get to Shirley’s interview. I appreciate they have intro themselves but they said a lot without saying much. They act like booking Shirley is a scoop but it doesn’t break any new ground. They simply platform a bigot who has had a million other opportunities like this. One of the hosts mentions his journalism background. If that’s the case, this should be a lot stronger.

FORMER BLOOD GANG MEMBER | SKIPP TOWNSEND
Q: What does peace-building look like in practice, and how do you bring Crips and Bloods to the table?
By identifying the right people who are rational and committed to peace, organizing open discussions with food and a calm atmosphere, and maintaining open lines of communication over years, not weeks.
FORMER BLOOD GANG MEMBER | SKIPP TOWNSEND
Q: How did you transform from a survivor fighting to not being a victim to ultimately leading peace initiatives?
Through a shift in mindset, intense self-work, and mentorship from figures like James Ingram and others, Townsend learned to manage anger, pursue stability for his family, and dedicate himself to creating peaceful spaces for dialogue.
FORMER BLOOD GANG MEMBER | SKIPP TOWNSEND
Q: How different is Skipp Townsend today from the Skipp Townsend 30 years ago?
He's dramatically different; he's evolved into a man focused on self-respect, healing, and channeling his experiences into peacebuilding and community service rather than violence.
AMISH TURNED STRIPPER | NAOMI SCHWARTZENTRUBER
Q: At what age did English boys come into that?
When I was 16, almost 17.
