  • This podcast is great.

    Listening to this gives me a chance to laugh at all of the deranged conspiracy/anti vax nonsense that a lot of people across the country have destroyed their minds with.

  • Highly recommended

  • MLM's siren song to cookers

    Funny moments here as Jack and Joel identify the great malaise sweeping through MLMs and emptying the wallets of the cooker clans: the gullibility epidemic. Crazed conspiracy theorists charge lemming-like towards bankruptcy in the service of the might pyramid scheme. It's freedom: but it's not free or even cheap as this podcast shows.
