“I was very excited to listen to this podcast after learning about the author's in depth experience with the cult. However, as the shows go on 25% of the time is taken up by ad placements and then there's the > 60 second bumpers at the start and end of the episode.

However, it doesn't do much to move forward the narrative of the Franklin Jones cult other than the beginning episodes that merely set the stage.
