  • Slightly abusive task podcast

    I enjoyed this podcast for a long time, and I love hearing most of the interactions between Alex and Merlin, but many weeks I found the emotional abuse Alex takes from her hero, Merlin, was very triggering. This is how my father treated my mother before hitting her, so I had to stop listening.
