I lasted two minutes. I couldn’t tolerate the narrator’s vocal fry. I’ll never know if this was an interesting story.

Interesting story but I can’t listen past episode 1 due to the ridiculous voice fry and cadence of the narrator.

Unfortunately the voice of the host is hard to get past.

Some of us appreciate having a judge with standards.
Host complains about how "strict" the judge is due to her expectations of dressing appropriately in courtroom?

Vocal fry is awful!
