4.6 out of 5 stars from 6.1k ratings
  • Love it! 😍

    It’s soooo awesome! The voice? Like guys that’s soooo creepy Malcum’s a great voice acter! The stories are also great, even though he gets them from other people. He brings their stories to life. I agree too though that it’s sad that we have to wait a week but, there’s like a million other episodes so I’m not disappointed! I’m not a fan of Otis’s voice it’s too casual and bubbly otherwise I’m excited to hear more stories from Malcum! His narrative side is awesome 😎

  • Once a huge fan, now just disappointed

    I would give 5 stars if Otis Jiry wasn’t just dropped after years of dedication. No hate to Malcom, but I’ve had a funny feeling ever since you introduced him. I found Otis comforting and he made this my favorite show. Your decision to get rid of him will cost you many listeners, including myself, no doubt. Good luck with the consequences.

  • What happened to Otis Jiry?

    Otis is one of the main reasons I love this podcast as much as I do. He’s been part of it for the last 14 seasons what happened to him? Why has he been replaced?
