  • Awesome show!

    This is a fantastic show and I’m so glad I found it! I can’t wait till more people hear about it. It is a great mix of news, true crime, and levity. Not to mention the hosts are amazing and have a great dynamic. I like how they don’t claim to know all the answers or what the right opinion to have is, but they analyze the stories and consider listener feedback. Definitely recommend giving this show a try!
