Description

"Fame is a Bitch" with AJ Benza, deconstructs some of the biggest scandals and tragedies of our lifetime. These stories are about the powerful seduction and fateful grip of fame. Our tragic figures are those that couldn't fight off the influences, pressures, and distractions that worked like grease upon their grip. Benza brings an insiders perspective and his tough-guy demeanor, bold narratives and aggressive pursuit of the truth, distinguish him as an authentic and original voice. AJ knows as well as anyone that "Fame is a Bitch."

Bob Saget was a pedophile, like most of Pedowood. He was either killed out of revenge or to keep his mouth shut. His roast wasn't jokes. Hes a disgusting POS. Ashame to see AJ still worshipping these scumbags. We the People are awake now & there's no going back. Burn Pedowood Burn 🔥

AJ is awesome and I CANNOT reccommend the podcast enough. It feels like he is talking directly to you, and it's so refreshing to hear his take on things. He doesn't hold back and you know you are listening to someone who speaks from the heart. This podcast is a enjoyable mix of pop culture, Hollywood, and a hint of politics, all held together with AJ's honest opinions. Really a great listen.
