  • I learned so much!

    Very interesting podcast about the highs and lows of Samsung. It was well narrated and I enjoyed hearing the experts viewpoints throughout the series. They really added to the credibility and provided a lot of interesting facts. Overall, it was so well done! Looking forward to future Inheritance podcasts!

  • Samsung chaos

    This podcast is just too chaotic. Timeline jumps all around 60 years of history, I can’t keep the different family members straight, and every twist and turn is told as if it’s a huge drama on a reality TV show. Not the quality I am used to from the BBC. I’ve made it to episode 3 and just can’t listen to any more. It could be a great story if organized better.
