  • Went from good to terrible.

    Plays way too much poorly recorded interviews etc instead of telling the story which went from interesting to just lazy .. and so many adverts now …. It’s lost me. You can get the same stories done better with less adverts in other podcasts

  • So many adverts

    I do enjoy the stories, the narrator is good. But my god so many adverts. Five times in under an hour, and often the same ones. I appreciate they bring revenue, but I’ve taken to just fast forwarding, it’s getting really annoying. Edited 13/5/24. I have unfollowed. The Sydney Powell episode was poorly edited with multiple lines repeated. And the amount of adverts has increased again.

    Edited 21/8/25 - tried again. Gave up. Weird long pauses. Lots of adverts. Very poor editing, lines repeated more... more

  • Pretty great, but

    It’s a simple, no-frills podcast. Typically very respectful. Absolutely hate that there is no transition or warning for ads, it makes it really weird and confusing. Also, “besties”? Girl, this is child murder. Also, SO many episodes about children without any trigger warnings for violence or SA.

    Also, while I love a fast pace, she talks fast even for me.

  • Great podcast- concerning ad

    This is a great podcast all around but I’d like to ask Emily to reconsider the ad choice- having a firearms advertisement in nearly every recent episode seems in poor taste considering the content and especially in the US with our gun violence epidemic.
