“I stumbled upon this podcast years ago and simply saved it to my list of podcasts for future listening. Looking back that was a enormous mistake. Ray and Cam go into great detail about the time before and after Alexander. They go from Big Philly Mac all the way to the Big D. I am one of those...”Read full review »

“Totally worth the $5 a month for this podcast. These guys are both absolutely hilarious and run the show in true Aussie fashion, horrifying PC Americans while making everyone else’s day.
