Dawn of Mantis: True Crime, Mysteries and More

 Dawn of Mantis Podcast

Join longtime friends Joe and Ivan on a comedic journey through the mysteries of true crime. Since 2002, Joe and Ivan have been crafting comedy bits and skits together, honing their unique style. With their producer and co-host, Sam, at the sound processing helm, the trio dives into the depths of true crime mysteries, as well as music, history, and various other topics, with a twist.
 Joe and Ivan's comedic banter adds levity to even the darkest of subjects but always with a respectful approach. Their motto: Victims are never the subject of the joke; instead, the focus is on the perpetrators, pointing out irony and puns along the way. So buckle up and get ready to laugh, cringe, and ponder the mysteries of the human psyche with Joe, Ivan, and Sam on Dawn of Mantis!
