- Bring back Terry
The stories have become progressively less interesting and frightening as the show ages. Bring back Terry Carnation. I can’t stand when podcasts insult their audience by releasing reruns.

I have been a listener for years. Firstly, losing Rain Wilson sucks. No one since has been good. Secondly, I just listened to your first episode and… ew? You’re making fun of callers, including a woman feeding a baby. You think a human is scarier than a bear in the woods? Unlikely. First episode I had to fully shut off.

Not excellent, but every now and then very entertaining to listen to👍
Apple Podcasts4TheFBmanUnited States14 days ago - Spooky
I love the stories and find them to be generally quite chilling. The only thing that bugs me is the lack of conclusion to any of them. I keep expecting them to add a coda like “then I looked it up and there was a guy who died there blah blah” or something and it never happens lol. It’s just “so anyway that was weird” end of story. And every time I’m like ???? That’s it?!?
Apple Podcasts5K704United States14 days ago - Not good anymore
This used to be very good. The stories were great. The narration and stupid skits were always bad but the stories were good. It’s bad now. All of it. I’ve tried to be patient holing it would get better. I give up. I’ve unsubscribed now and thank Goodness I never paid for this junk.
