I’ve had to take two stars off because whilst I loved these podcasts when they first came out, now they have adverts and shorter episodes. I listen to these to fall asleep or should I say used to, as I can no longer fall asleep when the adverts come on! So annoying! It’s called ‘crime at bedtime’ so why have the adverts? It’s not relaxing at all.
Such a disappointment. I subscribed and it still had commercials. I just about fall asleep and a commercials blast on. Such a waste of money.
Can o just say that from an audile perspective this is DIVINE. Jack, your dulcet tones are blissful listening, as is the exquisite orchestral/chamber style music. Very few podcasters “get” the audile factor, they just present info in an audio media. Screeching, nasal, or horrendous vocal fry. Thank you Jack. This one really hits the nail on the head.
I was hooked!!!! Five stars
The only thing is I probably wouldn’t recommend this as a bedtime podcast.
It's hard to fall asleep listening to a guy who is too lazy to google the pronunciation of place names. Arkansas, Raleigh, Dyatlov, Waikato... it's not that hard. This pod had the potential to be great but I'm done.
