- Poor content to selling ratio
Repackaging free public domain radio plays and tacks on way too many ads and mixed comments and insights. Ad and comment ratio to real content is just way too much to swallow given these are all free on internet archives and other rights.

I discovered this show by accident. Super stoked I did. Fantastic stories presented really, really well. I can’t wait to check out more of Adam’s shows. Well done, brother!
Apple Podcasts5mattsmith0622United States3 months ago - Good…but
The actual Johnny Dollar show itself is really good. Good quality and plot. However the commentary before and after the show takes a lot of time and frankly is quite annoying. The voice of the commentator is very annoying and the commentary he gives is second-rate.

Perhaps my favorite podcast!
Apple Podcasts5Apple since 1987United States6 months ago - The voice of Adam
I enjoy Adam’s compilations of OTR episodes; but sorry dood, Adam’s voice is not fun to listen to. And the intro music is clown car music. Just stinking play the episodes and call it a day.
