People Often Suck is an all-new podcast featuring two guys who share random stories of people who truly do suck in life. Stories can range from murderers and thieves to people faking a death or selling their wife’s body for sexual favors. Truly scummy people. But every episode ends highlighting a positive story of a person doing the right thing in life. A humanitarian, a friend, a hero in life.

Ep #6
We open with a haunting unsolved murder on a remote German farm in the 1920s that still baffles investigators today.

Ep #5
We kick things off with a chilling look at a little-known serial killer who roamed the U.S., leaving a trail of victims in his wake.

Ep #2 Schemes, Scars, and Second Chances This episode takes us from a 1935 murder plot with more twists than truth, to the shocking case of a one-armed homeless man and a brutal crime that shook a community. But we end on a high note — with the heartwarming story of foster kids getting a chance to dream big and be heard.
Ep #1 In this season opener, we unravel three wildly different stories: a woman exposed for abusing animals on YouTube, a chilling tale of an assassin for hire in Belgium, and a touching moment from a school bus driver that turned one child’s day around. Darkness, danger, and a dose of heart — all in one episode.
Ep #10 This is it! The Season Finale! Special guest, and our producer, Mark Wallengren joins us to talk about a 'SCREAM' copycat murder, an IRL streamer who’s became a POS on an international level, and a good Samaritan who rescues a cat from certain doom.

Ep #9 Oh, man. Did this girl really make up a whole story about being r***d?!?! Well, we wouldn’t be talking about her if she didn’t. then we got a story about Brad Pitt…..’s double. What a piece of work this guy is. If only we could learn from a 4-year-old who survived cancer and brought Christmas to all the other children.
