I don’t think I’ve ever heard a podcast with more ads than this one. It’s extremely distracting and unfortunately just takes away from my ability to enjoy the podcast or desire to keep listening.
Very Good. Loved the way the story was told, the humanity and depth. Also loved the narration.
Deep Cover has been a “must listen” for me since I first heard season one, but “Family Man” significantly injured that status. I found myself completely unsympathetic to the family involved, the story, and the overall theme. I was deeply disappointed. Hoping the next is better.
Interesting subject matter, gentle delivery, no grating music or host opinions overriding research so really easy to listen to!
I was mesmerized…,sad, hopeful..and disappointed…
