  • Courage

    Thank you John Favreau for your voice of sanity and aspirational humane caring, you yourself exemplify a healthy role model for our young men. Stupendous, great guest but your spoken essay, comparing Vance to the young man from Ventura illustrates perfectly the old HiLights Goofus and Gallant contrast of a correct desirable manliness and character.

  • Not hitting like it used to

    This used to be my favourite crooked show but sadly since Max Fisher left the interviews can be super hit or miss. Lately it feels quite repetitive and not reflective in the same way.

  • Disappointed

    I have been a loyal listener to Crooked pods since 2018. Jon’s reaction to the reaction to Charlie Kirk’s killing is so pathetic. You ARE the establishment now, and it’s beyond disappointing to see you go down that path. The entire justification for your view on this issue is that “Charlie Kirk did what you do,” and that view alone illustrates how much you have lost the plot. This movement isn’t about you, it’s about the people. Shame.
