There is a couple of Ts in important (im-por-tant not im-poran). Please enunciate the words as they are meant to be! It is why I will no longer follow
I absolutely loved this podcast and the storytelling! I really struggled with the female voice for the male parts, however.
This event happened in 2018 in a cave in Thailand but how this is delivered is magical and is a lovely story of determination and grit! Glad this was a good ending.
The story telling is fantastic and the research on each story is top notch. One of my absolute favorite podcasts.
Episodes are well done! I love the inspiring stories of survival. I wish the female-narrated stories would bring in a male voice for the male characters, because I find Cassie really distracting when she tries to do the men’s voices.
