    The Closeted episode was it for me. The host spews his misogyny and hatred on his other show which turned me off from it but this one was suppose to be different. Clearly he just can’t help himself.

    The SAS team, led by Mike Boudet, is a politically uneducated, culture war endorsing team of people who spread misinformation on in the form of racism, Islamophobia, misogyny…the list goes on…if you are into a willfully idiotic world where statistics and data are ignored and misinformation is platformed, this this is your show.

  • Mike please

    The one star is for the one too many interruptions that distract me from the amazing storytelling by this chauvinistic supremacist ,with the many of stories you tell you would think that by now you understand that evil has no gender, color or religion but I guess this is one of the uneducated named Mike a white guy named Mike.

  • Mike won’t change

    Smh, to think o used to pay a subscription and now I’ll never listen again. Who hurt you bro? You’re losing $ with your bigoted and misogynistic ways. An excellent story teller haunted by his own demons. I’m in a podcast relationship with a narcissist. I’m done. The closeted episode was it for me. Sincerely, an illegal (in your mind at least)

    There are things about this podcast that I really enjoy. Those things are becoming increasingly overshadowed anytime the host inserts one of his personal political opinions into the story line. A perfectly good episode can be completely derailed by this. It’s wholly unnecessary, and seems to create a strained relationship with his own fanbase. He seems to take any criticism about this as an attack from the “other side” rather than a genuine constructive criticism of his medium.
