  • Episodes tend to drag

    While I find the episodes very interesting as I live in the same town where most of the content matter originates, the manner and tone in which the narrator presents the episodes tends to drag. It seems that the information could be presented in fewer episodes with less breaks making it less boring for such dramatic content matter.
