  • Good content, but

    The host’s voice is hard for me to get past. It’s so monotone that it distracts me completely from the content.

  • This man groomed groomed the child and the mum let him

    Another great Ep Jiles. That episode was incredibly frustrating. I really hope the mother is held accountable—knowing about the abuse and doing nothing is inexcusable. Absolutely vile.

  • Extremely loud, random ads make the show unlistenable

    There is absolutely no transition period or warning, so you could be listening to a calm narration one moment, and have someone screaming in your ear about car dealerships the next. These are mid-sentence interrupts. Just a complete disrespect for his listeners.
