  • Would give 6 stars!

    I’m not a big listener of podcasts, but the Laundry gets me excited every week for a new release! As someone who works in the field of financial crime, I used to find most podcasts on related topics to be too dry, too specific and not engaging. Discovering The Laundry has made me engaged on a whole other level!
