World on Drugs with Steve Furey29 Mar 2021

The Pink Panthers, the international jewel thief network responsible for stealing over $500 million of gold and diamonds

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!

Brian Simpson is a stand-up comedian and writer based out of Los Angeles, CA. He is the host of the popular podcast 'BS with Brian Simpson'. His background as a foster child and Marine Corps veteran, has led to a rare combination of life experiences that he manages to channel into an aggressively hilarious and refreshingly unique point of view. He is one of the newest paid regulars at the World Famous Comedy Store and widely considered one of the best up-and-coming comedians in the nation today
