quickly becoming the best most consistent pod out there

Within 10mins it was obvious you guys are gold together. Intelligent, hilarious, and charismatic.

This podcast is always so captivating. You should be really proud of yourself Mark.

Very quickly you’ve become one of the best interviewers. Doesn’t matter the guest you always find a good connection and get them to open up.

You always ask the right questions! I truly believe everyone that’s been to prison misses the structure 100% This podcast is quickly becoming one of my favorites!

I've seen Mike do a bunch of interviews, but honestly I watch them in bits. Got a feeling I'll be here till the end now. Props again for Ed Caleron's ep. F'n great.

Easily the only podcast that regardless who’s on or what’s discussed I can enjoy it. A no skips podcast.

Omg! Yes! The Seven Five Doc is like watching Goodfellas, it never gets old 👊

I've known Mike for over 35 years and everything Mike is saying is completely accurate. Great interview Mike. Talk to you soon! Mark, great interview keep up the amazing work!

I really appreciate the intelligence you interject into these interviews. I love how you know when to let the guests talk and when to keep the interview flowing. This Irishman is a funny Faucqor

What!! How are you doing this, the consistent insanely incredible podcasts it’s mind blowing 🔥🔥

This man has great charisma heard his story multiple times but it never gets old

He was in a tremendous documentary called "The Seven-Five". One of my favorite docs.

Been here since you had like 20k subs good to see you grow bro

I just listened to this one but I had to come here to comment this was incredibly entertaining. And a lot of excellent questions from you Mark. What a way to kill 3 hours at work. Thank you so much to the both of you.

“You hit a nerve with me” that’s a good ass compliment. It does describe you and the pod

Mark,thanks for having Mike on,I could listen to him all day long!! Your content has been so good!!!

I viewed a few videos in full when Mark first started out with this Camp-thingy. Just found time to get back to watching and holy shit! So many good videos imma need to watch. Keep up the good work, Mark!

Yo your contents fire bruv keep dropping 🙌🏾🙌🏾

I’m loving Camp much more than Flagrant. Love the diversity of guests and their personalities and experiences. Keep it up Mark❤️

Last few episodes are absolute bangers 💥💯

First video I watched of yours. I imagine this was a difficult interview to do having to reign Dowd back in every now and then and keep him focused. Good job

Great interviewing skills with enough humor, awesome mix, this channel will be at 1M subs, great guests and skill undeniable 🙏🏼

I don’t know who this host is or where he came from or how he jumped into my algorithm, but I have 0 complaints. Every episode I’ve seen has been great. Good questions from a seemingly humble and curious person. Love it. Give me more plz.

Killing it Mark - enjoying these more than Rogan lately

Mark’s channel is one of my favorites . I love hearing Mikes interviews , he’s so funny . What an insane story

I have done some prison time in my 20s (45 now). I don't care who you are; cop, thief, murderer, doctor, or Joe Blow off the street who never did anything illegal except get in an accident thinking he could drive home just once after the bar and killed people in the crash. Doing lengthy time (or taking part in the revolving door method of going in, getting out, amd going in over years/decades) is going to change you mentally for the rest of your days. When the preview showed him hesitate on the Do you miss prison?' question I can still relate to that response 100%. Do I *want* to go back to prison? Well of course not. I have a family that loves me that I help take care of, other people who care about me, I enjoy my freedom - especially the nearby Atlantic ocean and being out in nature. But there are also things I found got increasingly difficult as the years went by and I accumulated lots of jail time. Things like keeping up with paying bills, maintaining steady employment, talking/dealing with people in any authoritative position, dealing with normal relationship issues with the wife and kids, heck, even living outside the space between my half of the bed to the wall like the are I would have in a cell is so hard at times and living that way seems to be getting more desirable and easier to *want* to do the older and further removed from prison I get. The answer is "Yes" I do miss prison. But I don't want to leave my family, I don't want to have criminal interactions or put on the "act" of being an inmate and a criminal, and I don't want to lose the ability to experience nature and other geographical areas either as I get older. Anyone who has been there I hope you are making out okay, I hope you are staying safe and not doing anything to get ya busted, and I hope if you feel the same way you have at least *someone* that cares or that you care about to keep ya clean. Thanks Mark (and sorry for such a long comment haha)

Easily becoming one of my favorite pods ever!! Best of luck stay true❤

Such a great interview!!! He really laid his heart and emotions on the line

yeeeeeeeee buddy, time for camp babyyy

One of the best interviews out there. Much respect Mark!

Bringing the heat Bro, love you on flagrant, love you even more when you captain of the ship.

dudes podcasts are so good

Forsure the best podcast out here now. He knows how to interview

I look forward to this pod every week!!

The first time I heard that ad for Fume made me think of something else when he says, “it’s 2am, you’re having drinks and someone pulls out a bad habit..” I thought I heard the word “bag”, and it was making me reminisce on some good ol days. Lol

I was born in Brentwood and raised on Long Island. This guy sounds like home 😂

Love your pod man new fan

Never heard of mike, but immediately was laughing and having a good time , and mark only amplified that . Amazing podcast

Bring mike dowd back on please, this episode was really good

Great interview Mark : ✅ I love Mike’s story and he reminds me of people I know / - I love how when he speaks of dropping a “dime” or “Kangol hats” Mark says what’s that mean . Not offended you at all it’s just funny how old I feel .⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mark Lots of luck looking forward to seeing more 💯

Never heard of u. This is an EXCELLENT podcast youre a great host i love it

You’re lookin’ good Mike. Glad you’re still doing interviews. ❤

THE 75 BABY IYKYK

you’re incredible at this mark

Camp Gagnon GANG! 💯

"Did you see anyone get pinched " 😂😂😂 last time i heard pinched was a james cagney gangster movie 😂. great bring it back

Damn when you said "you don't get to those types of positions of power" then he said "without being owned" that's dark says a lot about our system 1:05:45

"At least your'e a sergeant" :D LoL

Mark, you are the next Joe. Keep it up brother. Can’t wait until you headline near Bama so I can come see you. All the love. This was a fabulous pod

though I’ve heard many interviews from Mike. God damn a great story teller always has you wanting to hear more.

The polish guy story is exactly right, the police shouldn’t put up with BS from the public. That’s one of the problems today is that people know they can back talk police & now there’s more of them. Cops need the city leaders give them permission again to cuff/arrest loud mouths that are disturbing a policing event. 100% this is important to public safety

Dowd might be a lot of things, but he's honest in his stories. Good shit.

Badass pod

Gang gang

Easiest one of the most best documentries I ever seen ,I seen it years ago and have watched it about 10 times man ive even watched the whole commission interview (interrogation) and he held his f-ing cool 😎 a mans man he might say the odd thing that people nowadays jump on like AW HES RACIST blah blah blah people need to remember hes from a different time and went to prison for years these kids now a days grow up without ever being punched in the face and believe me you need to toughen up and stop crying man but this interview is his best and brought me to your channel ,so mark you have another subsciber ,great questions bro well done from scotland 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We need a cooking vlog 😂 lol

I’ve watch his story many times another banger fire interview champ let’s collaborate I got a story for you champ

Legit best podcast on KZfaq

I cant believe no one has mentioned the volume and "enthusiasm" and how this guy cant keep track of the topic of the conversation... i have seen this guy on SWU and other podcasts and he hasn't been this... energetic.

Love your podcast. When will you have D1pop back on your show?

W pod 😁

8:07 he said his moms mighta got knocked up a lil early! This guy is the personification of so many dudes, so many unuin/fire/police dudes from the neighborhood who were my oldheads growing up, amazing men i feel blessed to have been rasied around and with theyre positive and supportive influences. These dudes taught me how to bust balls, how to laugh at myself and how you can see how close men are by how vicious they bust balls, a universal truth to this day

i seen gagnon on glasgow couple weeks back 💪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My favourite podcast❤

Re name the episode or out in quotes crooked coo cause that dudes a stand up guy seems respectable

How can you not love this dude? Idc what he did dudes likable and to be honest I probably would have done more if it was me lol

The new Rogan

why the fuck don't we have a few movies and TV Shows yet????? even the Iceman got a movie.

Mark you are absolutely Soo flagrant on the pod u r killing it I love you vibe I'd love if you replied to me or even liked this comment it would make my day ur one of my most favorite interviewer's keep it up mark 😊❤

radio talk show guy Bob Grant died about 10 years ago , i went to a friends of mine fathers wake , it was Bob Grant , had no idea it was my friends Father , very strange

Aw seems like doing this and telling his story may of healed his inner child lol ❤ enjoyed this ep

You can tell from the guests mark is fascinated by the drug culture 🤣

Hey mark. Im from Va Beach. I could tell you a lot about Q masters and the raid on the owners mansion during a card game. berry berhman who also ran the us open until he passed away. I got mad stories i could tell you about that place, professional pool players and the crazy shit that went on behind the scenes.

also mike would be a great comedian 💪

Brentwood we made it!! 🤣🤣🤣💪🏼💪🏼

Mike is right the job did not want patrol officers to make drug arrest . That was left to SNU ( Special Narcotics Unit ) and to the BAND Unit . If you did make a drug arrest the bosses would get on your ass.

This guy got ripped off for what he was doing. Was giving them ounces of cocaine, crack and heroine and only getting a couple hundred each time. There’s always someone taking advantage of others that think there taking advantage of so best to know your worth and stay to yourself

Very good podcast

The guy doing the interview is solid though

This dude is still high. Crash talk, commercial, dude now has his jacket off and is wiping his nose and has his charisma back.

Sup mark:) oh Hi mark;)🤗

I've got little memories of being 18mnths old but they're like clips

I'm just here for Mark

"A good cop who turned into a bad cop." He was always a bad human being.

Kid super name drop ayeeee

Mark doing a pod from his house

if you close your eyes he sounds like ice king from adventure time

44:23 spaghetti brains.. smfh how disrespectful

Kangol ,triple goose this cop is smack in the 80,s😂
