The Ruckus Podcast

The Ruckus Podcast is a family that was brought together by a brilliant human being who had the foresight to put together 10 people in one space and let the world hear it. We are sorry to inform that Lu Olivero, better known as Brutus and the creator of this space, is no longer with us. His life was taken by an assassin’s bullets in Rio de Janeiro, where he’d been living for the past 10 years. He...

Times are changing, and it seems the Ruckus cast is changin with it. Or are they? On this episode, The Ruckus explores the "new trend" of men wearing skirts, what it means for our society and how it can affect our kids.

Though the Ruckus is known for a lot of bullshit, and madness, every now and then we try to bring people onto the pod that actually know what the fuck they are talking about.

We didn't understand it all, which made it all the more neces...

Because you know we don't have a fucking clue what we are doing, we found another epsiode in our vault.
