This podcast was badly presented and lazily put together. It feels very dumbed down, with a cheap, tabloid tone. It was a deeply disappointing listen - underwhelming and a waste of my time.
This is a podcast based on a book which already exists, based on original interviews, that you have stolen for this podcast. You have also – remarkably – taken all the skill, charm and flourish out of it. Well done, everyone.
A bit underwhelming and not that well put together or much depth on what should have been an interesting subject.
Considering there’s a book about this very subject which is much more thorough, this seems like a lazy attempt to tell the story. Stopped listening
Basically someone else’s book ripped off without the interviews that made the original book actually worthwhile. What a cheek these jokers have.
