  • Wouldn’t change a thing

    If you don’t mind dark humor and love all things curious this is for you. Dan does mention his opinion but unlike other reviews say this is not a political/leftist/antichristian podcast. While sometimes Dan does bash Christianity I understand it is HIS POINT OF VIEW and at the end of the day I’m not there to stay in my echo chamber and have all my opinions reflected back at me. This community is wonderful and I wouldn’t change a thing 3 out of 5 stars

  • Disrespectful and not funny

    Tried listening to the Delphi episode. The host insists on inserting his attempts at humour in at every possible opportunity. He isn’t even remotely funny and his insistence on shoehorning the one Dick The Bruiser joke in time and time again is disrespectful & annoying.

  • Yall are dumb

    I have been listening to Dan since 2017, stand up, pod casts and everything in between. If you are offended and upset by him having opinions and judgements about religion and other topics then you are listening to the wrong podcast. He cultivates an environment that demands open mindedness. You can’t stray too far one way to enjoy Dans content. He always has and continues to provide a fantastic product. Don’t listen to the brainwashed “Christians” and other people saying this is a bad podcast. D... more

  • So much potential

    This has grown on me. Could be a fantastic podcast thanks to a lot of great research but feels like a 3 hour swearing rant in each episode which makes it hard to listen to. But the excellent research and amusing commentary makes up for it.
