What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Great topics and knowledgeable guests. Please fix your volume! Ads blow out ears while guest’s mic is often too low. Makes it difficult to listen sometimes.

Wisco Skeptic · Mar 2026

Like so many others, Joe Rogan introduced me to Andy Stumpf years ago and I’ve never looked back. Between Cleared Hot and Ironclad, Andy breaks down some of the most pressing and under reported stories in today’s world. I love how even handed Andy is in all his interviews. No drama, no aggrandizement, just a compelling dialogue, with some humor, and packed full of essential information. Keep it up!

I work for CBP and Title 31 of the US Code states if you bring more than $10,000 in cash/checks/travelers/checks/foreign currency, you just have to declare it and fill out a FINCEN 105 form

Tweeds95 · Jun 2024

Great Podcast; quick/digestible, incredibly informative, hosted by a humble beast of a human being who has really taken Sebastian Junger’s mantra to heart; “Journalists don't tell people what to think, they tell people what to think about.”

Nickname taken "Tim F" · Mar 2024

This show has excellent guests that provide very thoughtful insights into topics that are not at the forefront on the world news but are critical to the human existence.
