  • The more I listen the less I like it

    I have enjoyed some episodes but now I am noticing that some of the topics just contain an hour of speculation and waffling by the host - a lot of ‘this is my opinion - I have nothing to base it on and can’t prove it’. Also I don’t love the fanboy attitude to these mob guys - interesting their lives are, but they are major criminals and murderers in a lot of cases. The host sounds like he wishes he was part of it, rather than an independent observer.

Be more vigilant and careful and not only will you have a pop... more

  • Amateur Hour

    Podcasts are great, the give anyone a chance to talk about anything.. it doesn’t mean you should listen. This podcast is the work of an immature/ amateur person who belittles people to get ratings? A feeble person who life just seems sad. Good luck pal, you’ll need it.
