It's not that I dislike Malcolm Blackwood, but as long as I've been listening to SSTITD, Otis Jiry has been my favorite narrator. I wish he would come back

Apple Podcasts5bakennnnwnjwUnited Statesa month ago - I stopped listening
Otis was fired and now is homeless. That's a story that could be told on this podcast. So, no thanks.
Apple Podcasts1History lover 5United States2 months ago - Where are you? Finally - A creepy one
I’m subscribed to many creepy podcasts and have listened to almost all on this channel. Otis is amazing and his stories are stellar. I enjoy most, except those that involve child abuse (I Skopje through these as they upset me more than scare me). However, being a enthusiast on scary stories, movies, and history, I feel this is a dying art filled with gore and quick deaths. However the 2 part story, S4E10 Dirty Jobs, finally tingled my sense of being creeped out.
