    As a person that works in emergency medicine, you all made me laugh so hard when you guys thought that ibuprofen an tylenol is stronger the morphine. You guys need some real emergency classes, before you guys start talking about medicine.

  • Fun, informative and entertaining

    Forrest and Kyle give out some good info as do the guests. You can tell they're having fun as they talk and yeah, Forrest gets goofy with the dad-joke style humor but I keep catching myself laughing and while I don't see everything wrong with the world as a conspiracy I still give Kyle's theories some critical thought so I am indeed a fan of the show. I've been binge listening to get caught up. Keep up the good work, guys!
