  • Awful

    Pronouncing “junta” with a hard “j” is just one example of the lack of professionalism embodied by this podcast. The “burning sun” episode is clownish, too short and impossible to follow. If you love gory descriptions of victim’s horrific murders, amateurish summaries & analysis and enjoy listening to someone reading off a paper with the vocal skill of a grade school student reading a report out loud, this a podcast for you.
