  • I get you need to get that bread but 3:30 mins of ads at the beginning? I'm scared to find what I'm gonna run into at the end. That's the real horror here.

  • The sound effects almost ruin it

    The podcast is great, good stories and a fan of the narrator. But the sound effects, specifically the swallowing, kissing and crying make me skip episodes where those are prevalent. I would rather have no sound effects as the ones used take me right out of the story.
