The dramatization is compelling and not over done. If you live for survival stories, this podcast is a treasure.
Apple Podcasts5OchewbacUnited Statesa month ago - Mike’s Seasons Are Good, Skip Cassie’s

Her performance acting out characters and voices is wildly unconvincing, sometimes almost laughable. The stories are often interesting, I just can’t stand Cassie’s telling of them. A group of people reacting w... more
