Okay but who wants to support a team called the predators!? 🚩
How do people live like this -- lying non-stop and conning everyone? Better yet, how do some of these narcissistic con artists fool enough people to be elected president?
same way people were fooled into voting for a dementia patient :-/
I lost it when i heard Deformr's aka this episode 🐟 Awesome episode as usual!
Everytime you said John Spano I heard George Santos
John Spano is the Anna Delvey of wire money transfer excuses.
"He beat someone with his shoe...he was PERFECT for Long Island."
Excellent. As usual.
I remember this. This should be good
Man, I have been waiting for this forever. Thank you.
Never would have expected to see you here :)
I'm sure it's going to be better than the shitty doc on Netflix! Here goes!!!
My hockey team! I think I requested this as well and I'm happy to see it covered. Some of the most wild moments in franchise history and a dramatic fall from grace. Basically took us 25 years to recover. Thanks for covering it!
