The Opportunist

PodcastOne

The Opportunist tells true stories of regular people who turn sinister by embracing opportunity. How does an everyday person turn into a thief, a scammer or a cult leader? Perhaps the most dangerous person is the one who appears the most normal. Perhaps there is a dark potential lurking inside all of us that is just waiting for the right opportunity to emerge. The Opportunist is an original podcas... more

  • Misinformation

    So, Tim Ballard. You’ve presented what seems to be credible and factual evidence that the guy is a creep—worse than a creep, even. But your so-called “experts” on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are all ex-mo’s. Naturally, you avoided consulting current members, because then you’d discover that “Mormonism” isn’t to blame for who he is. He is who he is because, like everyone, he has the agency to choose: to be a decent person or a self-aggrandizing opportunist. He chose the latter... more

  • Listened faithfully until the host changed

    The host change ruined it for me. Not engaging at all. Bummer.

  • Tim Ballard Series

    Episodes 1-5 were good but episodes 6-10 were less about Tim Ballard and more about the host and producers Trump derangement syndrome and dislike of republicans. There were also “anti-men” sentiments throughout. Both of which were disappointing as they detract from the legitimacy of the allegations against Ballard and OUR-which in my opinion are likely accurate and seem well supported. Episodes 1-5 are worth a listen.

  • Very biased

    Got a few episodes in. Had to finally stop, my ears couldn’t take it anymore. Lots of irresponsible reporting (lies and the worst “experts” and witnesses). Not credible people. Very biased.

  • Great podcast / but now they make you pay for most episodes.

    I started to listen to this podcast a few weeks ago, and I’m hooked! It has very interesting stories that are hosted and explained really well with a lot of research done on each opportunist. I’ve been binging on exclusively this podcast for about three weeks. As a guy it’s hard to find a podcast I really like in this genre .

    Update:

    They have a new host which is decent, but they make you be a paid subscriber for most of the episodes now. Seems like a lot of podcasts want you to pay to li... more
