  • AI at its worst

    I’m a true crime fan and stumbled upon this podcast. The episode I listened to was the worst example of artificial intelligence I’ve found. The podcast episode was about a murderer named Father Daniel McKinnon, a small town priest. The AI storyteller referred to Father Daniel as “Daniel’s father” numerous times.

  • Too many ads

    The podcast itself is pretty good and interesting but the ads are so frequent it makes it nearly impossible to listen. Who puts an ad mid sentence? Awful.

  • So many ads it’s not even worth listening to

    I have never listened to a podcast with so many ads. They would literally be in the middle of a sentence and there would be an ad. Not to mention that it was the same ad over and over again and it drove me absolutely insane. I cannot listen to this ever again because of the amount of ads.
