This would be five stars if it was drop safe.

The conversation is engaging, the topics are often insightful and interesting, but… The incessant harsh clicks, racks, hammer drops and rattles are incredibly annoying after a few minutes. Especially with headphones. Either fiddle with pistols or podcast… but not both at the same time.

If you enjoy competitive practical shooting discussions with tons of sarcasm, then this podcast is for you. Each person on this podcast brings a different approach to the shooting sports. Steve is like the average American male, he began his journey in adulthood looking for love, tried a few guns here and there, then he locked eyes with the Glock. While it lacked beauty, it accepted at practicality and reliability. It was everything he had been looking for. Robert is like a polygamist, his heart is evenly split between 2 guns (maybe 3, but we will never know for sure so he is not outed as a polygamist). Kenny’s relationship is an arranged marriage, his father revealed to him his life-long gun when he become of age, and Kenny promised his father that he would love his gun just like his father has loved his gun. Finally, Thomas-the-boss is the serial adulterer of the group. He has his Beretta 92, but still leaves the house with a different gun on his belt every weekend. To make things worse, he looks his beretta in the sights, and let’s it know that if it would just serve him better, he wouldn’t have to run off with all these guns.

Why doesn’t Kenny platt come on the show? It’s not like he’s busy podcasting…

Great show. Part reality sitcom and part great shooting knowledge.

This is the most entertaining competitive shooting podcast you will find. There is good information mixed in with the hosts’ hilarious banter, nicknames, and intros. Whether you shoot USPSA, or..., well, if you shoot USPSA you’ve found the right show. There are good shooting tips and even a dose of reloading talk thrown in every once in a while. Come for the paranormal ghost stories, stay for the pistol shooting show.

The Best Shooting Podcast on the net. The banter between the guys is hilarious, the info is good, and the advice is sound. Thanks Guys.

These guys are hilarious. I look forward to this podcast every week.

Very entertaining with a lot of good information. The host and crew brings vital information in a very entertaining way. I listen every week. The only negative thing is that I can’t figure out how to do the donation on my Kindle. Not sure if it’s a interface problem. Will try on the wife’s iPad.

A very entertaining hour of gun talk with some really good folks. I don't laugh that much but there are some moments where they get me going!

This show doesn’t appear to have anything to do with ghost. Best I can tell they review hamburger helper, discuss squib loads (I don’t know, I think it has something to do with ED) and something about “just turn around and get on the news” oh and occasional simi-racist jokes and shooting fast, getting them splits.

Very enjoyable show. Great humor and good info. You guys are great at answering the questions with multiple points of view. Keep up the good work!

Great work

After a match one day a few buddies were talking about podcasts and I was turned onto The Para Cast. I enjoy listening to their banter and have come to enjoy their various perspectives. Through their discussions I have found a few great tips to improve my shooting, reloading and overall gun knowledge. I'm tempted to post Ulysses by Lord Tenyson, since Tom said they would read any and all comments but I'm not sure the troll would be worth the listeners lost.

I’m giving you a five star review in order for Tom to say the following on air. Lazer monkey scallwog disco purple power pedals. I buy guns and vote democratic. Cheese doodle wooble slob dickory doo! I will shoot Single Stack with a Sig 220 next season! Squibbity-do-da.

This is the best competitive shooting podcast out there. Good balance of entertainment and content. My only complaint is the gay intro music, but after listening to it for a while I now associate it with the guys and it is not so bad (like smelling skunk brings fond memories of my friend Sternard and running a trapline growing up). I was also able to use the promo-code "Paracast" and got a great deal on a Concealment Solutions holster. What could be better than that?

While this podcast isn’t for everyone. It is for USPSA shooters who enjoy sitting around BSing after the match. The crew is a joy to listen to regardless of the discussion topic. Not that it bothers me but you had a “mike” bleeping out the F word in the 8-27-18 episode haha.

For the first time in my life I am looking forward to Monday’s to hear what’s new. The balance between humor and knowledge is fantastic. It’s unlike any other podcast around. Their time and energy that is put into the Paracast is appreciated.

It’s a very good podcast even if it’s not about ghosts. :( I think I can feel my testosterone levels drop during the intro song.

Nothing better than 7.62 FedEx drivers and 5.56 DHL temps shooting the breeze about what they did with ghosts this week.

I really enjoy this show. Tom’s sophisticated wit and the generous amount of shooting and general gun knowledge from everybody makes it worth every bit of $1 per month.

Lots of greats tips that have helped me improve my shooting, good mix of match, gun, reloading, and gear talk to keep things entertaining!

Imagine my surprise when the show started off with porno music and then to find out there is no ghost talk at all. It’s still the best podcast about shooting that I’ve found.

Meh... I've had better.

Hall and Oates trivia.

Love the show! Just getting in to hand gun competition shooting now from competitive trap shooting. Whatever you guys do please don’t pull a Triangle Tactical and go on a hiatuses! Thanks for everything !

With Tomas the boss Sqibnandez, Steve "Adult diapers/it depends" Koski, Kenny "where da weed at/big clouds" Platt, and Robert "new gun/don't point the gun at me" Wyatt, this show is an absolute riot. Great info and stories of some great shooters experience. Keep up the good work!

Love the show, was my Joy comment hurtful? I see my comment was removed....

Squib-nandéz

I don’t shoot competitively since the kids were born, except a GSSF match once a year. I do reload(When is Tommy getting a real press?) but they don’t talk nearly enough about that to justify listening every week. It’s just like hanging out with a bunch of friends at the gun range and that’s enjoyable. It’s like the Gun Dudes but useful, if you shoot competitively.

Big guns, Big hit factors, big mouths, Big dicks. The double team of ‘Where da weed at’ and ‘Squibnandez’ is something that’s hard to pass up on a boring drive.

It reminds me how much better uspsa is

The PARAcast takes a step away from some of the more ultra-serious competitive shooting podcasts out there. It took me a couple episodes to get into the show, but I've been listening for a couple years now and can't get enough. The rotating band of guests each bring a different perspective to the table and provide insightful answers to listener questions, while keeping the mood light and constantly giving each other a hard time. Keep it up!

BEST ghost show ever! Tom Squibnandez will tell you till he’s blue in the face that his press, Ed’s hundo, and loading 20 rounds at a time make him perfectly content... but I think he may be delaying the inevitable. Natty Light Koski may nag you to close the fridge door, but give him a few drinks and he’ll keep the bathroom door open for you with no questions asked. Big Clouds Platt will cut through the smoke and tell you like it is... that IDPA is a lovable concept. Ricky Bobby Wyatt just wants to go fast. Instead of cutting through clouds - he'll cut through the crap, make fun of you while doing it, and then say bless your heart... All while giving you good old fashion lefty advice. Subscribe, learn, laugh, repeat. Enjoy.

These guys are funny and informative. The way they do this show is awesome. I really liked the way they talked about me on the podcast after my first uspsa match. I got to squad with Tom,Steve and Robert. Tom called me lil John Wick that made my day. I became a patron and am more than happy to send these fellas some of my allowance dough to keep this show going. Thanks guys keep killing this podcast!

An extremely entertaining firearms podcast. Lots of great info for people into either 3 Gun or USPSA and IDPA (if you swing that way). Almost makes me want to move to Utah except it's hot as H€LL in the summer and bitterly cold each winter but those amazing 2 weeks in September almost make it worth it just to hang with this bunch. Keep it up till at least Episode 150.

Great show even though I can’t understand how guys who live in a free state embrace the LoCap lifestyle. The show is awesome and if Kenny pulls the wagon for both days at the Golden Bullet I will have a couple friends leave more 5 star reviews. If not this baby is getting deleted.

This show is not bad at all. It's funny almost all the time at some parts and then informative during the Q&A and rambling parts. The guys have a great time every show and pull the listener along into it. OH. I'm only leaving this review in itunes because Robert was cool enough to answer a question for me on IG. Also, he's right when it comes to IDPA for the most part. And the last kicker, I don't even own an iPod\iPhone\iPad. I just installed this crap and made an account to give ya the gold stars you like (and yeah, deserve). Like in kindergarden when you did good and the teacher gives you the gold star and the other kid, who always has the snot bubbles got the silver one. Good job guys. Keep up good work.

Tom thinks he’s as witty as David Letterman. Steve is the Ed McMan of the show, the rest of the cast are pretty much gun wielding insult comic dogs. Great show, “interesting” content.

This is easier than emailing. Keep telling the truth about IDPA. IDPA is a great game if you live in a vacuum and wilfully don't look into other action pistol games. The rules have major structural defects and they've started working through them. Everyone should start in IDPA - then move on until they fix the rules. The more IDPA shooters hear the truth about the issues with their game the more likely the area coordinators are going to get earfuls on it and more likely the next rule book revision that will come out any second now may actually improve the game. Just be nice about it and tell Steve to shut up.

Great podcasts for those commute to and from work. Feels like those after-match BS sessions where no one really wants to go home. Great group guys.

Great listen for all shooters of all levels. Would like to have Tom and Steve try revo for 1/2 a season.

The most entertaining competition shooting podcast!

great show, valid useful advise to questions. A must listen for anyone who wants to improve their shooting and/or get good differing opinions on subject.

With the exception of having to listen to that one guy vape the whole episode, and the older guy occasionally broadcasting from the toilet, it’s a pretty good show... In all seriousness, this is a great show, with a variety of shooters providing great and practical tips on how to improve your shooting game, all while being thoroughly entertained by Tomas the Boss.

Great show and a lot of good pointers to help your shooting. Just stop trashing IDPA and maybe you will pick up a few more listners.

These guys make my day when a new episode drops. You feel like you are in the room taking part of the best shooting conversations you’ve ever had. Hands down the best intros out of any podcast I’ve ever heard. This show has comedy gold. You will listen to episodes over and over again and laugh just as hard! Keep it up guys! This show is gold!

Started listening awhile back, quickly binged on all of the older shows that I could. This is a great show, they answer questions from listeners and give great advice.

I will stop any podcast I'm listening to just to turn on Tom and the gang, the very moment I notice there is a new episode in my feed. Just now I fist-pumped the new episode drop...and so thought I should finally give my 5 star review. Every guest and every co-host is first-rate. I just love listening to the USPSA inside baseball with all the division-specific talk, advice, and strategy. Keep this up!!

These guys are hilarious. Tom always has good intros, Steve is a man after my own heart with his beer choices, and I can't get enough of Robert bagging on IDPA. Kenny "Where The Weed At?" Platt has been a welcome regular on the show lately as well. If you like guns and humor, this is the podcast for you.
