- You should be ashamed
I’ve only listened to the Grenfell episodes and this review relates only to these. You have a horribly condescending way about you that suggests that you would’ve personally done something so much better and seem genuinely excited about how awful this terrible event was (you actually said there was “more fun to come”!). Your tone deaf excitement is offensive to the families of the victims. Mistakes were made and lessons need to be learnt and never forgotten but brave firefighters went in there a... more

It is very clear she does a ton of research, and is very passionate about educating others. That’s awesome! But I was only able to get through about 20 min of a 1+ HR episode. The tongue sucking and lip smacks were making me so uncomfortable I had to turn it off. A few sessions with a vocal coach could help and since she’s been doing this so long it could be worth considering. Actors and voice actors do this all the time. Over all, deeply researched podcast but it wasn’t for me in its current fo... more

I appreciate the casual nature of her deliver... more
Apple Podcasts4netxnicUnited Statesa month ago - Good podcast
The podcast is well researched and delivered. Some editing would be great to cut out some mistakes and brain fade but otherwise it works.
If you struggle with lip smacking and mouth noises and sniffing, especially in the earlier episodes this is not the podcast for you .
