“I started listening to 'Pretending to be People' because I thought it was a true crime podcast about identity theft. Turns out it’s a true crime podcast about cops (who are honestly very bad at their jobs) as they investigate all the criminally supernatural goings-on in the small town of Contention.

The story is expansive, the world building incredible, and Zach is a beyond brilliant story-teller. I’m always on the edge of my seat and have to pick my jaw up off the floor frequently. I’m nearing the end of season 1 as I write this review and I’m already planning on listening to it again – I can’t get enough of the town of Contention.”Read full review »
