If you ain’t listening to the hardluck show, then what are you doing????
This is one of my MUST listen to podcasts out there. Chumahan, Lucky and Ol’Blue eyes always bring the heat that makes my earbuds bleed. Great stories and great guests. I would give them. 10⭐️’s if I could.
I thought you would leave out a lot of facts. But you guys touched on everything. I’m just glad the info is getting out. Hopefully one day justice will be served.
Advice to Chumahan: try not to interrupt the guests when they are telling their story. Wait for a pause to ask any questions that you have. Most of the time, you abruptly interrupt to ask a question about something they would eventually get to if you let them talk. Wait for a pause or an appropriate time to ask questions about any detail or clarity of their story. Other than that, Steve and Chumahan, keep up the great work!!
It’s good to hear voices that make you feel like you’re talking to someone you grew up with. The rawness and energy that flows cannot be scripted. Authenticity that just comes naturally to some. Stories that will stick to you and can apply to real life situations.
A must listen to whether you grew up in the hood or not. I like the balance between comedy and serious topics. The podcast will open the eyes of those who are unaware of the struggles that native Angelenos had in the past, it wasn’t always lattes and poodles. The addition of Lepke and Schmitty keeps it real with addiction, relapse and success. The true crime episodes are well researched by the Chumahan. Big Luck doing good things by getting the homies on the show, letting them tell their stories... more
Thank you for having me on
Your show is amazing
Keep up the greatness
LEP where ya @
Dopest podcast out! 💯 33
I listened to 10 episodes before I read the reviews. I must say I agree with the criticism. It’s hard not to be grossed out with Steve’s eating and burping, and the Co-Host is just ruining the vibe. I get that he’s there to try and keep the show flowing, but it’s so obvious and annoying. His corny jokes and little knowledge of street life just takes away from the stories being told. He doesn’t match the shows content. The way he talks up Steve makes for uncomfortable listening. Yeah, we ... more
Some stories need to be told. This podcast shines a light on a world few will ever know. Hollywood would do well to listen and mine some good stories from these guys.
This show is the dopest thing out there. Two giant forces Steve who’s done it all and been to the top numerous times. Quick thinking and highly intelligent Chumahon is a force to reckon with. Well though out topics and Inspiring interviews. If you want to listen to just gangsters go somewhere else. This podcast is on a much deeper level if you really listen. Thanks to all on this show
My favorite show 💯💯💯
Love the show and the topics. Please feed Lucky before he goes on air. Having to listen to him eating and speaking with a mouthful and sucking the food out of his teeth while on air kills the show. Stay focused and remember this show is about listening and his mouth noises are distracting
Chumahan take notes so you stop interrupting guests. Ask them after not interrupting
Chumahan gotta shut up and let the guest talk more.
Please Lucky!! PLEEEEEEASE......... get Chumahan off the podcast. This show has so much potential but it’s hard to get through a whole episode without being annoyed out my mind with that guy. No journalist skills, no valid input, nothing in common with guest.
