  • Loved the balanced reporting

    This series about Renee Bach is enthralling and well told. I really appreciated the attempts to provide a balanced view, instead of just witch hunting the most obnoxious person.

  • Mixed feelings

    The story and storytelling is great. The ads are out of control. I went on a 7 minute ride and there were commercials over a minute long in the 7 minutes. That’s too much. I want to finish the story but I can’t with all the ads. At least put them at the beginning or end.

  • Excellent and Informative

    This was an eye opening podcast. It made me really think about US missionary efforts and how well trained and educated you need to be for this type of work. I learned a lot and appreciated that they were really trying to get to the truth.
