Description

From crime lords, to drug king pins, Cartels, criminals, gangs, serial killers, and ever day psychos, World on Drugs with Steve Furey deep dives into subjects and people other wont. We analyze it through the lens of comedy, to try and see how and why these people/event went down the wrong road. So come join me, Steve Furey and my funny friends to learn about some of the people who stay in the shadows.
This week have one of my good buds Brian Simpson (@bscomedian, Comedian, Comedy Store Paid Regular, Your Moms House Podcast w Tom Segura, Lights Out w David Spade, and Comedy Central) in the studio to talk about the international jewel thief network, The Pink Panthers. Its always nice to catch up with Brian, especially during the pandemic. This is my favorite episode so far, STRAIGHT BANGER DOG!
