I can listen to Michael Caine all day and feel debonair and refined during my retail job.

like a history lesson over brandy

my only critical point would be the choice of putting background music every 30 seconds. But this is more than made up with Michael Caine's smooth buttery voice.

Wonderfully done. I was especially touched by the last episode. Tracy Miller made for a compelling listen. I'm happy that her life has turned out for the best.

Eye opening

Few of us like to admit that the violence and mayhem are interesting and some of us admire some of these criminals for what they can accomplish.

Fascinating look into gangs

Inserted into this segment is a politically correct lecture from some humorless academic. The points she makes could have easily been made within a minute or so. However her segment is droning, race shaming repetition so it feels more like attempted mind control. It makes me want to run down the center aisle and hurl a hammer through the screen. Caine makes the same point with his genteel elocution later. Skip the harangue and don’t look back.

Skip the half hour SJW sociology harangue
