  • Used to be great

    I don’t know what happened but at some point the quality of voice actors on this show completely tanked. I don’t have super high/unrealistic standards for narrations but it’s to the point where it’s distracting from the stories.

  • Great stories, Don’t miss them

    The stories here lately have been super low in volume, and I can barely hear them, but the commercials are super loud. I know it’s not on my end, because other people have said the same thing. I don’t ever miss a story, but it’s been impossible to listen to at work due to not being able to hear the story, but at a whisper on my AirPods. Please fix this, because I absolutely love disturbed!!!

  • Poor sound regulation

    The ads were way too loud and the actual content not loud enough. Even with a good story, I don’t want to struggle with inconsistent sound volume.
