“What is a Shrek Slurpee?” -Alice Fraser
We found the only person in the world impervious to the Stringer Bell charm. Writer, comedian, host of Tea with Alice and The Gargle podcast, beams in all the way from London to talk to Matt & Vince about season three episode seven of The Wire, “Back Burners.”
Right off the bat, Alice reveals that she listened to Pod Yourself A Gun and the Jack Reacher novels while breastfeeding because they are both just engaging enough to distract, but not too stimulating to put down when the baby is full. Finally someone recognizes that this is the Jack Reacher of podcasts. This pod is 6’6,” jacked as hell, and idolized by guys with punisher stickers on their Dodge Chargers.
Tell us how much you would pay for our The Good Doctor rewatch podcast in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.
