  • UGH

    Can podcasters please stop with these annoying podcast voices? The drama and tone is so unnecessary and takes away from the story- why are you narrating like that?!

  • High hopes, ads ruined it.

    I was so excited to start this podcast as I love dual female narrators. However, I wish I was being hyperbolic when I say almost a third of the episode is ads. 5 mins at the beginning, another 5 in the middle, and 4 solid minutes toward the end. 14 mins out of 45 is entirely too much. It ruins the flow and it’s so frustrating.
