    Making fun of the victim is a huge turn off. I had thought better of you. Won’t be subscribing anymore.

    Real!!!
    I’ve been listening to this podcast for a few years, and it’s one of my favorites. It’s not always an easy topic as the name suggests, but Jack tells it in his own way.
  • Twoolbert
    Awesome!!
    Found out about Jack Luna through Mike at sword and scale. So happy yall promo each other so I can binge all the things. Love your content and realness!! Keep killing it!!

    Knows how to narrate
    I listen too a lot of podcasts and nothing gets me to turn off faster than a boring sounding host. Seriously, what are these people doing with a podcast. Jack has a great voice and speaks with engaging emotion. And while I don’t always agree with his opinions i always find him engaging and entertaining. I was compelled to write this review after hearing him talk about smoking crack and right in the middle of discussing the ugly moments of being at the end of your drugs and scraping together remnants for one last hit, podcast hard cuts to Jack doing a Rosetta Stone add read. Haven’t laughed that hard in a while. Keep up the good work Jack.

    Always delivers!
    If you listen to just one of Jacks podcast, that’s all it takes! You’ll always come back for more! Especially when he has Kent on the show! Kent’s channel is TCK, should check out his channel as well! You won’t be disappointed!

    Jack Luna is my all time favorite pod caster voice. He is a brilliant writer, imaginative, and with the raspy smoking voice, he puts my mind in a calming space:) as always 5 stars:)

    Authentic and honest
    Dark Topic is the real deal. No sugar coating on this podcast. A real dive into the depth of how bad people can be. Extremely well written and composed. A podcast for those who want to take the true crime genre to the next level!
  • NotSumthinNice
    Great
    Jack and this podcast are not for everyone, but I absolutely love it!! Thanks for helping make my work days go faster and reminding me to keep my eyes cocked and doors locked!!

    WOW. Save your subscription $$$
    Here for the true crime. Not here for the host guy to be an ungrateful sad sack crybaby lamenting his family trip to Disney. Can you say Privilege? I made the mistake of paying for subscription for a couple months for dark topics content. I liked the sassy Kansas guy or whatever southern state. Think his name was Kenny. The lady bug guy was lame. Jack Luna is lame cause he’s a pathetic dumb dumb idiot head. And I finally unsubscribed cause I was here to hear disturbing stories. I’m sorry jacks dead died but hearing a drunk guy experience grief was the content I agreed to pay for. The current unpaid content would be fine if the jack off wasn’t being sad about being in Disney world with his whole family? I guess I’m the wrong audience. I’ll never have the means to afford a family vacation to Disney cause I paid for this Guys trip. I’m the idiot. So not pay for disappointing extra content!!!!!!!!
  • Caleb strothkamp
    Great!
    It’s not just you! Thanks for what you do.
  • BarryBadrinath
    Great content
    I love Jack and Kent’s chemistry and banter. The gallows humor is really good. Might not sound like it but you gotta make jokes to cleanse the palate from these cases.

  • Dana aka ShortyGonzo
    I dig it!
    I love Jack Luna’s style. I feel like he is genuine & I totally dig it! The topic IS dark but he is informative with an occasional twisted sense of humor. Eyes cocked, Doors locked, Stay paranoid!!!
  • Sraphel

  • Rdrivas
    Love this podcast
    Hey Jack I love your podcast your stories are always amazing! I also love that you keep it real and don’t give into the sensitive society and tell it as it is! I also struggle with alcohol and keeping the work family balance! I love my kids and try to be the best father unlike the men we hear about! Your story is also inspiring and I wish the best for you! Keep up the amazing work I get excited every time I see a new episode is out!

    Love the show. Really appreciated you talking about your attempt at sobriety. I’m coming up on 5 years next month so I can tell you with absolute certainty that it is possible. I still have a hard time having enough energy to keep up with my kids but check out some AA meetings if you’re interested. I go 3-4 times every week and come home ready to put in solid time with my boys. Take care man!
  • kcrowned
    I tried jack
    Getting good on smashing on natives also I Wish they would practice what they preach about shutting up about politics and just telling the story.
  • Kalefac3
    LOVE the stories
    BUT hate hosts personality. Jack. Kent. all of em. unfunny.
  • Brandiland86
    Crime cases presented like amazing short stories
    Seriously the best in true crime podcasts. The stories are written with the same intensity as a best selling novel. It’s amazing to get lost in these tales. I highly recommend Patreon or apple plus as the content is way better than you get anywhere else. Makes my day every time something is released!

  • PrincessPotter1
    Love Dark Topic and Brutal, Jack and Kent are great!
    Sorry to hear about the recent drama, Jack, but I hope you’re hanging in there! Thank you for continuing to provide good content while dealing with so many huge life changes - my condolences on the passing of your dad-and I hope you and Kent will keep recording together. You make a great team, and I always look forward to new episodes. Again, thanks for all you do, keep up the good work!❤️
  • Jenniecide300
    Oh no!!
    I’ve never written before because you, Kent and Deadbug are my favorite and I’ll always think highly of you all. I’m so bummed out about what’s happened. I think everyone needs a bit of “the library is now open” and everyone says what they need to say and then it’s closed and everyone is friends again. Ugh. You guys make me laugh so hard. It’s just a shame but I’m not in your spots so I don’t really know do I. I do know I will miss Tales from the Bottom Down and the Brothers Grimm. Absolutely. - Jennie G

    Get rid of the music
    I love your stories but, can you pls get rid of the background music? It’s very annoying and distracting. There’s really no reason for it honestly! Show would be 5 stars otherwise
  • chicagbr09
    yikes
    ya had me until you called adhd people spoiled & stuck-up for asking for special accommodations.
  • meeshell828
    You rock!
    I started off listening to Sword n Scale and thought it was awesome. Detailed, researched, straight up story. It is extremely monotone and super weird slow motion speech. But anyway, I thought it was good. UNTIL I heard you and Jack Luna together and my mind changed immediately! You guys research like no tomorrow and bring in details that no other do! You make it extremely fun to listen to with your banter! Makes me giggle! You are real about life’s challenges/experiences. Love that you are completely open about your own lives/struggles that we all can relate to! Hope you smoke Sword n Scale…..you guys deserve it!!!!! Even in your in-depth researched episodes, you are giving real time feelings and thoughts! You guys rock it and will always be my favs!

    Blown Away
    Found this pod by accident and it’s the best accident I’ve ever had. Jack’s storytelling is incredible. Binging and can’t get enough.
  • Kelly 4E
    Jack the GOAT
    Jack Luna is one of my favorite hosts of all time, with his combination of wit, humility, respect and knowledge of each topic (including Marooned) his ability to colorfully describe even the mundane keeps me listening every day. I don’t know you but I’m proud of you dude! Keep doing what you’re doing❤️ -Kelly
  • Runningjax
    Loads of respect, dude!
    So I stumbled on you by accident, and I’m glad I did. I also wanted to just thank you for covering Leesa Gray and Eddie Loden- that case happened in my hometown. You are one of the few who covered it accurately and didn’t gloss over his ENTIRE history. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Keep on with the dark topics, I’m here for it! Absolutely would recommend!

    Love your honesty, opinions and your attitude. My admiration of the way you tell these dark truths is beyond my ability to express fully. Thanks.
  • pcdavis
    Love The Brothers Grimm
    This new podcast is the best! I’ve never laughed so hard during a podcast! Kent, Jack, and Deadbug are a cohesive team that hold nothing back. Looking forward to more episodes
  • Jamison2016
    Best True Crime podcast out there
    I’ve been a listener since the beginning. During my time as a Dark Topic fan I worked in EMS as a first responder and now an ER nurse. I live for the dark humor and the great storytelling. Also love the addition of Deadbug and Kent. Just wanted to FINALLY let you know how much I appreciate the work and stories!
  • Shotgun Killer
    Deep self awareness?
    I appreciate you. I appreciate your research and time. Don’t overthink what isn’t being questioned- we’ve evolved with you- also your perfect the way you are!

    Dude!! Bad Actor was such a great episode. Adding to the list of great episodes. We all have saboteurs inside of us Jack. Stay out of yourself.
