It’s not bad but they all have a very bad Hollywood laugh. Every single joke lands with each other and I find it unbearable.

I like the subject matter and wanted to like it but i just couldn’t get past it

The podcast is well researched and entertaining. They are super liberal which is annoying at times. They have a political podcast that I listened to once because they put an episode in the Last Podcast on the Left feed. It was right after Trump’s State of the Union address. I stopped listening after a few minutes but it was miserable to listen to but their theory on why the address was so well received is because only republicans watched because liberals didn’t care and had to work the next day.

I only like it if the subject matter is good. The Jonestown Massacre one was great because of how in depth it was. The Black Metal one was great because of the voice the guy kept doing to mock the leader of the movement. The Biggie and Tupac one was good too.

Basically, if it's about some obscure killer, it's not worth listening to.

One of their best episodes.

I don't really get people being upset about them going off the topic or having episodes where they talk about conspiracies. They are three comedians after all.

The Casey Anthony series was also good. I like their podcast, and I don’t care if their beliefs get sprinkled in cause they are human after all, but sometimes the banter gets way off track and annoying. I can live with it, though.

That's not true. Most ppl have heard about the big serial killers and countless other podcast do indpeth research on tops (Generation Why, True Crime Garage, Sword and Scale, Criminal). They just add a bit of humor to the situation.

Also, some of the obscure killers are pretty damn interesting. Especially from decades ago.

That's fair. What I meant was I really appreciate how much deeper they go into high-profile situations I thought I knew about beforehand. Some of the stuff they talked about with Jim Jones was just mind-blowing.

Are some people saying they actually believe in paranormal stuff?

I'm not willing to say it doesn't exist. That would be foolish.

Yes, those guys are hilarious. I'm finishing up the 3 part show on the murders of Tupac and Biggie. Will definitely listen to more of their shows.

Its pretty solid content wise.

Its done by three comedians, so yeah, there are going to be jokes that get run into the ground.

In terms of the politics, one of them is a former Independent/Libertarian candidate for a local position in his NYC borrough. One is an unrepentant socialist. One is a bit of a crazy guy with a Texas background and various whackaloon positions all over the map.

Yes, they do drop politics in the show from time to time-- but they have a decent approach that no cow is sacred-- the profound beliefs of any person are open to being mocked.
