  • Shocking insides well spoken

    It is amazing to listen to the story of Paul Fisher. With his voice it makes it still real, the story is shocking, but in reality it was as described….I sense that PF regret what he did but at the time it was the game…very authentic, very real and worth to listen to

  • Fascinating

    An in depth real look into an industry that I’ve never known first hand. I learned a lot. Paul had an amazing career - was clearly a highly protective of his clients, which wasn’t the case in many parts of th industry.
