  • Really good podcast

    The first person accounts bring the listener into the experience in a way that becomes so much more believable than if you heard the story second or third hand. I look forward to each episode !

  • Huge fan

    Otherworld is my most listened to podcast. My partner and I listen before bed almost every night! The long-form storytelling is so refreshing. Allowing people to share their stories and just be heard without judgement is the pod’s biggest strength. Jack is bringing a lot of stories and experiences to light by just letting people share. I love hearing so many perspectives, and the huge variety of paranormal and occult. I move through the world with more open mindedness because of this show!

  • Some discernment needed

    The politics and ethics are non-existent. From stories from occupied apartheid states to exploitation of women, to rehabilitation of war criminals, and casual eugenics, an iota of standards and an editor are sorely needed. If not in the sourcing decisions, at least in addressing the context
