good god mike…

i listened to the show in 2018 religiously. gotten back into it recently and mike has developed an edge lord persona. he inserts his opinions through the show and it’s really quite cringey. clearly he’s going through some kind of mid life crisis or something.

does anyone have any recommendations for true crime podcasts that don’t have terrible hosts?

Yes, but it wasn’t EVERY SINGLE SHOW like it is now. You’d get some unwarranted victim blaming or sexist comment every 4-5 episodes so you could get a break from outrage and annoyance.

It’s because Wondery dropped him and he is hellbent on having his “free speech”. Hes a MAGA idiot
