  • Show's mostly good, though I think Monty has like four ideas she recycles endlessly and her idea of depicting any cultures is wrapped in a certain unexamined gender essentialism that is a little frustrating. She's got the chops at story telling, really paints a picture.

    This would get 4 stars if the podcast editor gave a shit at all. I dunno how Monty is satisfied with the work put out quite frankly. The bad pace would be fine if they put any effort into the job at all
