SCORE & REVIEW
7 out of 10: This was good installment of Talk is Jericho. Insane Clown Posse (ICP) is a rap group that people either love or hate. Their name in the headline will cause some people to skip this episode while others will listen intently. This turned out to be a very interesting story about two Detroit dudes who passionately love both wrestling and music. Throughout the podcast it becomes very apparent that music and wrestling go hand in hand for Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J. Even if you are an older millennial who enjoyed Eminem bury these guys, this podcast is worth a listen. You may even end up appreciating the contributions of Insane Clown Posse.
