  • Booming Advertisements

    I love the content of the show, and the calm low voices of the hosts. But the abrupt loudness of the commercials is incongruent and irritating. I often listen at night, and sometimes begin falling asleep, but I wake to a start every time an advertisement is played. Please find a way to balance the sound out a little better.

  • A great podcast!

    Suggestion: Can you please look into the story on a missing child Summer Moon-Utah Wells? I think this missing little girl deserves justice and her story needs to be shared

  • No trigger warnings for animal abuse

    Before describing a graphic animal death maybe give a trigger warning for animal death at the beginning when you give the other warning. And before someone complains “yOu cArE aBoUt aNiMaLs MorE” some of us have PTSD stemming from witness traumatic events.
