“Not so much. He has a habit of repeating MSM and right wing press assumptions and narratives. Ken will often gently push back or reorient the conversation, but not every time. Take, for example, Josh’s continual use of the phrase “Hunter’s laptop”. It takes only a few minutes of reading or...”Read full review »

“Do you remember trialware software where it was short period of time to evaluate if this software product was any good and then when you paid for a yearly subscription and then you found out that you can get elsewhere superior product over for free that’s what the podcast is.”

“I used to listen to your old post cast and playing pretend lawyer with you. I didn’t miss an episode of All the Presidents Lawyers but I didn’t know that you moved!
I’m mad I miss two years of the discussion!!!!
But I still love the show.”

“Every time The Pope, LLC mentions Avenatti, one can be sure Chuck Koch is about to slaughter a few thousand innocent people somewhere as an offering to Ayn Rand. *** Never pay any attention to The Pope, LLC’s sidekick. Were it not for his parents, that guy would be moving boxes at an Amazon...”Read full review »

“Plenty of people have opinions about the law; these two have actual knowledge. This podcast is a great antidote to the uninformed waffle which makes up too much legal commentary about the Trump prosecutions and other high profile cases.”

They literally spend two minutes of every show telling you you're missing out and that you’re not “cool”...”Read full review »

“I don’t need ten minutes of Josh Barrow begging for money. It’s weird. Lots of podcasts have figured out how to monetize. Some with ads. Some with subscriptions. None of them take this route of annoying and shaming listeners. Respect your audience. This tells me you don’t.”

“A ten minute episode that cuts out literally midsentence asking for money to hear the rest? Artists should be compensated, but this is not how that works. Use your favorite search engine to look for "how to monetize podcasts" and how they are doing it here does not appear on the list....”Read full review »

““Serious Trouble” is an irreverent half-hour of lawsplaining for lay people who follow the news.
It covers an array of prominent civil and criminal cases, explaining what’s going on, if indeed the defendant is in serious trouble, and how media coverage gets things right and wrong.”

“8 minutes of content every two weeks and a whole lot of begging for $60 a year to listen to … responses to listener questions. It used to be a good show and now it’s just a nonstop ad for themselves.”

“It’s almost like Josh thinks people don’t subscribe to other podcasts to see how monetizing them actually works. Instead of cutting a full “free” episode and having “paid” content in a separate episode, he will literally mid sentence cut the episode short and tell you if you want to hear the rest...”Read full review »

“‘All the President’s Lawyers’ is dead; long live ‘Serious Trouble’.
This continuation of AtPL is as good as it ever was. Josh and Ken strike the perfect balance between irreverence and explaining serious, thorny issues. But, now he’s behind bars, I do miss the Michael Avenatti updates.”

“When this launched, they claimed every other episode would be free. Each free episode is hacked down to lure you into paying. Either make it paid or don’t. No issue with people making a living, but it comes off as desperate.”

“I tried to become a paid subscriber for this and accidentally signed up to pay for Very Serious with Josh Barro. I deleted my $60 year subscription right away but they are not refunding my money, even though I would subscribe to Serious Trouble. Substack just says it's up to Josh Barro to...”Read full review »
