Long time listener here, love your storytelling Rosie!
But I couldn’t get halfway through the latest mini on ‘Should I Marry a Murderer’ because the co-host keeps talking over you. It felt like a mess with her desperate to add details and it ruins the flow when she keeps trying to take control of the narrative - I’ve noticed it in previous episodes but I couldn’t even continue this one :( Will keep listening to other eps but maybe this co-host isn’t for me
Hayley Staverly needs to remember this is Rosie’s podcast!! We are here to listen to Rosie.
I really enjoy Rosie’s telling of the stories but the producers (aside from James) interrupt and talk over so much - the start of the Should I Marry A Murderer mini ep is unlistenable!!
So glad I found this podcast : pro storytelling, smart humor and fact-laden episodes. Love Rosie!
Thanks for being a big soundtrack in my life. Love your work 🩷
