“Listening to this podcast, I was struck by Mr Loya’s self-awareness and lack of fear of his own vulnerability. While I don’t doubt his experiences for a second, I do not see a hardened criminal here, but a smart, remorseful, changed human.

“Joe Loya is an amazing storyteller with one helluva story to tell. Not only a thrilling true crime tale, but a human story of rage and redemption, an emotional journey from deep wounds to hard-earned wisdom. Give it a listen.”

“I’m on my second listen. If you like true crime you’ll love this. I’m pretty selective about my true crime podcasts, while I love the genre, not everyone can do it well. This podcast nails it. Worth the listen (both times)”

“The content and overall podcast as a whole is really interesting and I’m enjoying it. My complaint is the voice distortion that gets thrown in. It doesn’t make what he is saying more interesting, just makes it harder to understand.”

“I really enjoyed this podcast. Stumbled upon on when listening to a different podcast that Ben co-hosted. Ben is a great interviewer and Joe an excellent story teller. Looking forward to season two and will be checking out other podcasts from Ben Adair!”

“I really loved this podcast. I wanted a friend to know the story too, so I ordered the book online to give it to him for his birthday. However Since then it has been declared sold out on almost every website. I really want it and I hope it will become available again soon. Hope someone reads this.”

“I originally ran across the other podcast that focuses more on the bank robberies but I gotta say I love this one maybe more because Joe dives deeper into his personal life story plus you get the perspective of people who know Joe and some of the bank employees that he robbed! Dope documentary...”Read full review »

“I was really touched by this podcast it goes deep into a mans past to explain what was going through the brain of a criminal, a man who was lost in society, and sobered up, opened his eyes and realized his action was hurting other people and his quest to return to society.”

Mr. Loya seems like he wants to couch a lot of his behavior in a sob story about his past — my take on it...”Read full review »
