“I love the topics these gents cover but sometimes they talk too fast getting through the researched content. I also find Daniel to at times be particularly annoying and he tends to talk over Greg. Greg seems to be a really sweet guy.”

“Ugh, these hosts are so self-congratulatory and profoundly unfunny. Listening to this show is a nearly impossible. I can’t think of a podcast with more obnoxious, cloying, and annoying hosts. It’s just painful. Truly, truly painful.”

“This podcast should be dry and boring, but its not! Strangely, it’s one of the most entertaining podcasts I listen to, a perfect mix of historical intrigue and niche comedic banter. 10/10 No notes.”

“With 7 of the 15 LA Council Members disgraced over a 3 year period this show has never been more welcome. These guys are amazed amused and appalled as they lay out the history and urban legends (i.e. a dragon living in Griffith Park) of a city they know well. Frequently what they turn up during...”Read full review »

“And just wanted to correct one thing - “laowai” is basically just foreigner, “gweilo” is more similar to the “white ghost” connotation, though it still doesn’t really specify whiteness though often used toward white foreigners”

“My love and knowledge about my home, Los Angeles, has grown SO much since moving away to San Diego and I owe most of that to Daniel and Greg. I find myself recognizing names like Helen liu Fong or knowing what ARCO stands for and asking myself “wait how do I know that?”- the answer is usually LA...”Read full review »

“Funny podcasters talking about L.A., the greatest city of all time. they could improve on accuracy a bit- especially in regards to Chicano art history and Día de Los Muertos in L.A., which they credit Asco for and not Self Help Graphics.”

“Since I just started listening a few months ago I am listening to all their previous episodes and having the time of my life. I grew up in LA but now live in San Diego. Sometimes I wish I still lived in LA to visit the sites they talk about. I listen an episode everyday.”

So glad I did because I...”Read full review »
