- Could do without the annoying chat breaks.
It’s really enjoyable with the range of topics but the “breaks” in the middle are just irritating in a way that feels intentional as if you pay it’s removed. I want to learn about the topic not 10+ minutes of wittering in the middle which is often nonsensical and just to fill space at it clearly can be removed as it is for subscribers so it’s not important to the show. The chat just ruins the flow of the show.

Great subjects, but ones that have been largely done to death, and they bring NOTHING new to the table. Listened to several and its like a lighter version of other pods that actually go in depth. And they spend too much time being jokey in a not-funny way. I literally learned nothing at all that I could not have read on Wikipedia. What is the point? Point- there is none
Apple Podcasts1mysterymachUnited States5 months ago - not sure about this one
These are great subjects, but most have been done to death. I am not sure what you are bringing to the table with incredibly short episodes about well worn subjects here.

Listening to this should be employed by the military en lieu of waterboarding. Pure torture. The blind wet behind the ears children, leading the blind wet behind the ears children. P.S. Bobby Pastorelli was sober for many years, a fixture in L.A. AA meetings,mleading up to the incident. You nauseating clowns.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Podcast
What is This Podcast about and what kind of topics does it cover?
Hauntingly engaging mix of true crime, odd history, and paranormal tales delivered with sharp banter and humor. Conversations span from AI-enabled digital legacies and high-profile mysteries to cultural retrospectives, often anchored by two hosts who balance meticulous research with playful storytelling. Notable strengths include a broad topic range, concise episodes, and a Patreon-led ad model that funds ad-free listening; however, listeners sometimes cite lengthy mid-show chatter and ads that interrupt flow. This mix makes it appealing for fans of eclectic, story-driven investigations and fast-paced historical deep-dives, while sponsors may appreciate steady, engaged audiences across niche-history and crime topics.
