- Anti climactic copaganda
Could barely get through the first episode. It was pretty lacklustre anti-climactic that amounted to mediocre copaganda.

United Statesa month ago - I wanted to like this, but…
… “you guessed it” — I couldn’t tolerate the obsessive spoonfeeding of easily intuited connections and consequences. Show rated “explicit”, yet seems written for children.
Apple Podcasts2XaintongeCanadaa month ago - Best podcast ever
Amazing stories and I could imagine the whole scenes in my head because of how good the narrators are.
Apple Podcasts5MEN LOVER 1239United States2 months ago - Delightful story telling
I hope they come back with a second season! As someone who works in criminal law, the old adage that the truth is stranger than fiction is very, very true, and humans do very strange things sometimes. This show really illustrates that so well, and never loses sight of the humanity of the people involved, no matter how bonkers the situation may get.
