I know I'm responding SUPER late. but this day and age, don't you think it's okay to actually prepare our future for active threats (such as school 🔫)? it only makes sense to do so. I know, it's taboo and absolutely terrifying (mother of middle school, high school, and college junior) but God damnit its real. our babies need to know! if they're in a bathroom and hear something alarming (shots fired) they need to know what to do, just as they would if it was a fire alarm. I'm in a town of 800...
Enough on Scott Peterson! I stopped listening two months ago hoping you would move on. 32 episodes on that peice of sh#t is far to many. please tell old woody cop stories. t love you Woody but let's move on
gott it
Literally my finger nail clippers were "confiscated" at a Chris Stapleton concert. You're telling me that there's a whole ass ROOF available? fuck this dude. they (dems) wanted him gone.
glad to have you back woody so glad the prayers worked love all your shows
it's insane that these people don't think that they deserve to be in jail forever for doing this horrific crime. know that you're a piece of shit and take your punishment which is the rest of your life in prison or death. You raped a child and shot him to death. people that do that deserve to die the second thing it caught. In my opinion
omg!! These people are going to hell. if they're not there already. Burn! fuck heads!
this guy is a piece of shit thanks for telling these women's stories and their truth
omg!!
I can't even explain to you how much I love this accent. It's just as pleasing to the ear as an British accent. to me.
Oh my goodness! That cleaning lady should be charging more. I make almost the same amount as a fully dressed house cleaner 🤣
I'm glad the case was resolved, and this episode gave 40 minutes of congratulations and honoring everyone involved, but the actual crime was not discussed. we know how wonderful everyone is........ but what was the crime? what was the investigation? results? court trial or plea? I'm sorry to say this was the longest kissing a** I've listened to by you without ANY details. Maybe you should listen to a little bit before it's posted. The only thing missing in this case..... is the case.
It was so nice while Mike was gone.
The way he says eyes is i's. 😂
RLRC is where it's at. Woody is one of the good ones. Badge or no badge thats the man i want on my side when the chips are down
anyone else sick of Woody not letting Mike do his reporting?? that's not cool and getting old.
I'm gonna stop listening to you for the way you treat Mike over his news reports.
I'll listen to this episode every.single.year.
Damn Wood-Dog, the ad placement in ur pod really sucks. I love the pod tho.
Lol, Woody's a trip.
