Quality is waining, way too many ads for these short episodes… it started out an A+ podcast… it’s at best a C now. Come on Matt, turn it back up! It was a great podcast and still can be again!

United States13 days ago - State of the art, comprehensive, balanced
All things considered, one of the best, if not the best podcast on the JFK Assassination, for the neophyte as well as for the seasoned researcher. Mr Crumpton manages to synthesise in a very convincing way this behemoth of a story, a dantesque task few have so successfully undertaken. Wishing him all the best for the remainder of the journey, and many thanks for this great work !

Matt does a nice job, the issue I have is like others this is being stretched out to “forever.” This case needs closure and having a never ending podcast just to stretch out the series is just wrong. Now I feel it’s to keep money coming in. It will never end with zero answers. Another podcaster cashing in on JFK.
Apple Podcasts3otisdog5150United States3 months ago - Editing
One of the rudest obnoxious interviewees I have ever heard on a podcast. Never have him back again. If you do I will gladly skip that episode. Also, please edit out your guest’s verbal tics. It’s too distracting to hear “okay” and “alright” every other word
Apple Podcasts2Greg1956!United States3 months ago - Put down the gummies
Interesting pod, I have been researching the assassination for over forty years, not your usual listener. But the host needs to stop pushing thc weed gummies on this pod, makes me skeptical of hosts findings if he is high, this topic is too serious to mix weed into the discussion. Have some respect.,
