  • Missed opportunity

    Rather amateurish and poor choice of narrator. Had to move on pretty quickly.

  • PAYWALLED

    This podcast is far too good for me to put 1-star to make a point about how UNETHICAL and greedy it is to suddenly PAYWALL Spy Affair on Wondery+. You just gave the OVERSTOCK GUY another win because now NO ONE can hear what he did because you REMOVED IT!!!

    Remove the paywall and actually make NEW content for Wondery+ “exclusives.” This is wholly unfair and wrong. Now I’m panic downloading and archiving hundreds of episodes of every single Wondery podcasts. You’ve removed SO MANY of the most imp... more

  • WOW - Peter Strzok is an expert…not interested

    I was listening with an open mind until the host introduced her “expert” from the FBI, “Pete Strzok”. How in the world can anyone believe a word out of this guys mouth? I stopped listening right then. This guy is ten miles of bad road and immediately makes the whole podcast tainted.

  • Well done, thoughtful

    This documentary film maker turned podcaster did a great job revealing how corrupt maria butina and her old white men are.

    Let no one be fooled by the subject’s deception, while she may not have been trained by the fsb she meant harm to the USA.

    She deserved her punishment.
