- If you are the type of person…
… that relies on schedules? You may hate these guys. However, if you are a "ghost story nerd" then, you’re probably not that kind of person anyway, 😆 so this was never meant for you! I’m just so pleased that they keep putting them out at all. I’m not bothered by the rickety schedule, and I can’t imagine other true fans are either .😍 If you want a podcast with no ads, that’s entertaining, well produced, and extremely smart – then this is the one for you

A wonderfully curious, thoughtful, good-natured podcast.

No ads, great content!
Apple Podcasts5KrisberkeleyUnited States8 months ago - Highly recommend
Listening to the podcast has been a joy. Informative, insightful, funny, warm. Great rapport between the hosts and such obvious love for the subject (plus not trying to sell anything!). It’s really deepened my enjoyment of MR James and the genre more widely. My only criticism is that the episodes aren’t frequent enough… The suggestion from other reviews that somehow focusing on female writers in the last few episodes makes the series “woke” is just a load of nonsense.
