Loose Units: The Podcast
Smugglers
Season 1, Ep. 9
•
This is the biggest, most insane episode of Loose Units: The Podcast yet. Will John talk about a string of brothels being robbed? Will he spill his guts about the maverick cop he was partnered with who made Dirty Harry look tame by comparison? Or will he talk about honest-to-god smugglers?
Or hell, will he talk about all three?
Loose Units (the book) is in all good bookstores now, and the audiobook will be out globally on April the 1st (no, seriously)!
