“The host seems to think the audience is only coming to hear him speak. We literally talk over an interview to tell his own narrative.”

“The ingrained muscle memory of my morning run is such that I never need to think about where I’m going and yet thanks to Brian’s gripping storytelling, today I found myself lost in my own neighbourhood.
This podcast captures my attention like no other and continually takes me down unexpected paths.”

“I got a headache listening to one episode. The host is just too…everything. The voice, the energy, the pacing are all wrong. There are no peaks and valleys, the delivery is completely linear and can only be described as frantic. Not for me.”

“I listened to an extra podcast from series 3 and thought that the whole series was about debunking Uri Geller, it wasn’t.
Essentially a bunch of magicians back slapping each other over a pointless ruse. They claim to be debunking con men but they’re just taking the piss out of academics studies...”Read full review »

Brian's, Justin's, and the team at Dog & Pony's work keep getting better and better. Seasons 1...”Read full review »

“Brought to you by Brian Brushwood, the scammer with the grand master plan. Trust me when I say that Brian’s charismatic and warm voice has made tons of content enjoyable and this podcast is no different. Give it a listen and I think you’ll be surprised.”

“I love Brian Brushwood and I love his ‘Scam School’ YouTube channel. This focuses on just one story on season one. I would prefer each story to be 2 parts at the most. I feel like it’s being milked to make a full season and I found myself a little distracted and then just not listening to the...”Read full review »
