My favorite podcast

by Treekanay on Feb 01, 2016

RATING: ★★★★★

I am another mailman that loves to listen to this podcast as soon as it comes out. You guys help get me through the day and I enjoy all the sophomoric humor. The best is when Lil sounds astounded that you say something offensive or crude. Keep up the great work.

Like sitting in with friends you’ve never met

by Justin Opinion on Jan 29, 2016

RATING: ★★★★★

The gang at WLS has accomplished what few can – an ensemble of personalities that mesh together like the gears of a fine Swiss watch. They provide current and relevant information and industry news, along with humor and a tad of the absurd. Info-tainment at its most-bestest! It’s like the Howard Stern Show (back when it was good) for guns!

Fun and Gun

by Omni3vil on Jan 26, 2016

RATING: ★★★★★

I’ve been listening to this podcast for about 6 months now. Gear reviews, political information, everything gun mixed with a good deal of ball breaking. These guys convinced me to secure my family’s future by purchasing a Second Call Defence policy. It’s much needed here in the UnConstitution State of Connecticut. Hoping to join the ranks of the patri”guns” soon. Thanks guys and gal, keep up the good work.
