Good listen
Good podcast.
Big fan!
In 2009 my stepfather was sentenced to life at Angola for the aggravated rape of my sister and me. I remember the ADA saying “Being there… You’ll never have to worry about him again.” Now I can fully comprehend what he meant! I especially love hearing the history of Angola. Woody and Jim tell it so well!!
Bloody Angola
Learning about the history of The Angola plantation and the prison is unbelievable. The stories about the inmates and how prison is substantial. Keep the good stories coming
Good stuff
Woody is such a good story teller, every podcast he does is golden
I just can’t get enough of this podcast!!!
Love Woodys story telling…could and mostly do all day long.
Best podcast ever!!!
I will never listen to another podcast unless I’m caught up with Woody, Jim and Mike on all of their podcasts❤️💚❤️💚❤️💚
Great stuff!
Love this show.
Fire Podcast
I found this podcast after visiting Angola while in a police academy. Everything is spot on. Woody and Jim are knowledgeable, humorous, and deliver a great show. 10/10 do recommend!
Good listening
I must confess, I did not find this podcast - my daughter did and delivered it to me on a silver plater. I always listened to audiobooks books while driving, now it’s one of 3 podcasts.
Thank you
Thank you for giving me the understanding and different viewpoint. Thank you for doing this job. God bless!
Brent Miller
I worked with Brent’s nephew. I know his brother Stan. Thank you for finally giving Brent the humanity he deserves.
Great podcast!
This is such a great podcast. The storytelling is top notch and riveting. I’ve never been there, but it activates the senses and makes you feel like you’re right there “inside the wire.”
A+
Great podcast!!
Bloody Angola
Great podcast. Very informative. If you watch on You Tube, pictures are put up so you can see what being described. Woody and Jim do an awesome job and Jim is great at researching the topic so you get a lot of detail.
Great stuff!
Love this podcast!! It’s addicting!! I listen all day everyday at work!!
Hooked
Big RLRC fan heard about this Podcast and I’m hooked. Not just a history lesson but also an inside look at the penal system
Love this podcast
This podcast and these host are the best.
James Hemenway
I was a CO before going on Road Patrol, what I learned in the jail how to stay alive kept me alive on the road. Thanks for bringing out the stories of the guards and inmates. I binge on the stories from Woody and Jim. God bless you both .
Best of the best!
I’ve been hooked on all the RLRC series and now I’m hooked on this one! It definitely will not disappoint!
Best of the story tellers
Feels like you’re casually sitting with these dudes while they tell you heinous stories from their profession.
Real Life Real Crime
This true crime podcast keeps it real / great storytelling
Best true crime podcast hands down
Love love this pod cast! I am hooked does not get better than this!
Second chance
These two episodes were so eye opening. Absolutely amazing
Seriously good listening.
Finally. A Podcast that isn’t produced by two guys just getting drunk in their garage. Woody and his team deliver super interesting stories that are factual and worth listening to; thank you so much for not only taking the time to make sure the facts are straight, but also spending an hour or so giving us, the listeners a truly good story.
Wonderful insight
Growing up I loved watching the show locked up. I have loved everything true crime and criminal justice. This podcast scratches that itch for both! I use to listen to music at work now I go back and forth between Bloody Angola and RLRC.
Love Woody and Jim
These guys are top-notch, been listening to them both since the beginning. I’m happy Jim resurfaced on this podcast, from his start in RLRC. With that said, I wonder if anyone else has noticed that Woody sounds like he’s been drinking too much? Woody, love you! Not trying to throw shame, just concerned. You have so much to offer the world, and you e shared so much. You’re an incredible storyteller; it just sounds like you’re half-drunk half the time.
Excellent podcast
I love listening to Jim and Woody! I’ve been a fan for several years! Also love Real Life Real Crime! Just love how dedicated to the victims they are! My dad was an officer and I’m so intrigued by anything true crime related! Great job guys! You keep it informative and interesting without being boring
Experience Matters!
I absolutely love this show and it hits close to home because I did 8.5 years in Louisiana Dept. of Corrections. I love the history. Y’all keep going, God bless.
Really impressed so far!!
Just started this podcast, and I think it is going to be a love/hate relationship! The history is fascinating, but I’m sure some of these stories are going to be hard to take. I am definitely hooked! Woody has a great voice for podcasting! I think he and Josh Mankiewicz are my faves!!
Solid Gold a must listen!!
Jim Chapman and Woody Overton lighting up the podcast world with this very impressive account of Angola prison stories! Something for everyone!! Do not scroll past it and you will not be sorry!!
