  • Mannered and overproduced

    Interesting story, but the off putting production plays like an endless movie trailer: frenetic, mannered, and overproduced.

  • Too much background music

    Great story telling and super interesting story but I found the music unnecessary and annoying. It was really loud too.

  • Fascinating and chilling

    This was an excellent podcast with top notch journalism.

To me it seemed obvious that it was a scam for the beginnin... more

  • Not well made

    This odd piece of music that is quite eerie keeps playing in the background and tends to drown out what the podcaster is saying. Subject was interesting but not a well-produced podcast.

  • Someone’s gotta say it…

    Has anyone checked the guest suite at that one fancy resort in FL? It’s only a matter of time before He Who Must Not Be Named and his Russian pal gets involved, if they aren’t already!

    Awesome podcast, one of my favorites!! I am so looking forward to episode 13.

    Can’t believe this is still going on- truly the scheme of the century, it’s insane.
