- Compelling storytelling, as always. 10 Stars. No notes.
The combination of my favourite storyteller and true crime, at last! HOW TF DID IT TAKE ME SO LONG TO FIND YOU?! Nevermind, I’m here now, and I’m never leaving. Big love for all you do - you’ve continually inspire me since I was a kid, even so much as to drive me to work on the tech side of the industry, which has now whisked me into my 30th year of my career in what feels like a blink of an eye. Well done on this new branch, I can already tell it’s going to be a great one to explore.
