  • Some constructive feedback!

    Great podcast, and they cover really interesting cases and quite a few I hadn’t heard of before. My only feedback is, please don’t give away the entire story at the beginning of an episode! The hosts often do a roundup in the first couple of minutes, but it sortof tells you all of the key points of the episode before you’ve listened..
