“I have enjoyed your show when you avoid politics. The problem is, you criticize Donald Trump way too often. For example, the most recent episode I played about smuggling, you and your guest speaker mentioned border walls would have ZERO impact on drug smuggling and Trump was wasting billions of...”Read full review »

“Just listened to my first POWER CORRUPTS podcast: The Billion Dollar Shack. Dr Brian Klaas tells a FANTASTIC story. Gobsmackingly unbelievable, I lay in bed listening at four in the morning with my mouth open. Heartbreaking one moment and funny the next. This one story is a microcosm of all that...”Read full review »
