Love the stories, but the added dings, dongs and pulses as background noise are annoying.

United States16 days ago - Good, mostly.
Terry is annoying. I fast forward through his talking. There’s not enough episodes, especially for monthly subscribers.
New stories are so short and not very interesting at all. So much wasted time on more annoying hosts. Not even close to as good as it was.
Update: it keeps getting worse. There’s been one good episode of this season so far. I don’t look forward to them anymore.
Apple Podcasts2A|ADouglasUnited States19 days ago - Used to be good…enough with the vocal fry storytelling!!!!
I used to be a loyal listener but lately the storytelling has gone down hill. None of them are scary or even compelling. What frustrates me the most is that every narrator has some sort of “vocal fry” that makes it even harder to listen or enjoy. Maybe it’s just me but why can’t people talk without drawing out their words with little to no breath!!!!
Apple Podcasts2BuhZalUnited States20 days ago - Great podcast!
It’s still my favorite podcast but I think you guys got your money’s worth out of the software you use for special effects. Let’s pull back a bit.
Apple Podcasts4Johnnyrotten87United States20 days ago - Unique!
