    Ok, it took me a minute to get past the British pronunciation of Nicaragua. However, I’m glad I hung in there. A very unique and engaging story (ies) filled with unexpected twists and turns and interesting characters. I enjoyed the host’s sense of humor. There's a good deal of great content here and some almost unbelievable moments, except they are true! Which makes it a very engaging series. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I’m glad I gave it a chance.

  • Please stop saying Nicaragua. Please.

    The story is pretty much a whole lotta nothing. I would have given at least 2 stars but the way the narrator MISPRONOUNCES Nicaragua is more than distracting, it’s infuriating. It’s not because she’s British. Learn how to say it, at least accurately, with your native accent. Have the respect enough to try.

  • Interesting but…

    I was enjoying this series as it was a very interesting subject, although I do prefer more fact-based reporting rather than the more storytelling format this has been presented in, I still wanted to keep listening as I enjoyed hearing from the people involved, especially Maria.

    What was annoying however, I listened to the first six episodes and now they are only available to Wondry+, so I cannot listen to the final episode. There was no notice that these were going to be taken off the free plat... more
