We heard you loud and clear. Some of y’all been saying Randy’s too deep, too thoughtful, not enough wild prison stories. Fair. That’s not really what he’s about—but today, we’re bending the rules.

This episode is pure ear candy. Just a straight-up, jaw-dropping, no-you-didn’t kinda tale from the inside. A crazy prison story featuring Q, a dude Randy knows personally from the yard. No morals, no message, just raw storytelling the way you asked for it.

The Red Onion Randy Podcast, Featuring the life and times of Randall Via, currently serving 1,214 years in Virginia for capital murder and armed robbery.
