“This show is very nice not too long, not too short and not too much unnecessary chatter. The stories are fun, entertaining and original. I like that and I love the characters and explanations afterward, very insightful. Keep sharing the new content.”

“I listen a TON of horror content. I do not know how I’m just now finding this podcast, but here we are. This podcast is amazing. Rodney Barnes is one of the best horror podcast hosts around today. He is a wonderful speaker and his writing is beautiful. This podcast is a heartbreakingly poetic...”Read full review »

“I love Mr Ballen podcasts and his narration style so when I heard a sample of Run, Fool! I loved it too. The way Rodney narrates is how it should be when telling stories like these. He sounds like a guy just telling you a story, but in a natural way. Not like he’s reading from a script. I need...”Read full review »

“Started listening as a Mr Ballen follower. Great addition to his stories. These stories are creepy and entertaining I have to be careful when I drive to them! Rodney is one of the best storytellers out there, keeps me on the edge of my seat!! Highly addictive.”

“This podcast is awesome. I needed a break from true crime and gave this a try. Absolutely love it! The stories are great. Rodney’s storytelling skills are unmatched. However, after making it through the first 10 episodes, I found myself being skeptical of everything. Suddenly anything that...”Read full review »

“When books and podcasts weave product placements into their stories… it’s the end of creativity. You can have ad segments that are clearly separate from the story in podcasts, but keep them OUT of the story itself. Repulsive.”

“I know people need to make money from this but the amount of ads lately is making it almost unlistenable. Three seperate ads, each around two minutes long, in one 25 minute episode is just too much.
It’s such a shame because Rodney is such a great narrator and the stories are top notch. This...”Read full review »

“The stories told here at, Run Fool, I have never heard anywhere else, and I have listened to them all, tons and tons of scary stories in podcasts and on different YouTube channels. These stories are truly unique and they get you hooked. Fantastic narrator, wonderful quality!”

“This show is everything a horror/fiction anthology pod should be. Forget the elaborate soundscapes, over done voice acting (although, Mr. Barnes’ voice is lovely) and tired, old, cheesy tropes. This show is all about the exquisite writing. It delivers on such a cerebral level - you end up...”Read full review »

“I heard a preview of the show on another podcast I listen to and immediately ran to listen to the rest of the story, next thing I knew, I was binging the entire podcast. I love, love, love this podcast. It’s fun to hear scary stories the way we,(Black People) tell stories. One episode a week is...”Read full review »

“I can’t express how much I love this podcast from the stories to Rodney’s storytelling. It is amazing. The stories always have a great lesson to consider and you can tell he was made to pass along these stories to us. I also love how he reminisces on his grandmother which has brought me to tears...”Read full review »

“I am an avid podcast listener. I listen to a wide range, but I lean towards Cryptid and supernatural podcasts. This is one of the best I listen to. The presentation is what differentiates it from the others. It makes it seem so much more personal and real. I would recommend it to anyone remotely...”Read full review »

“Honestly, I came from a couple of other podcasts I finished and I can say that this podcast has more than just potential. His voice is far from monotone and the pod’s content is far from messy- chaotic and intentional? Sure- because that’s how generational folklore stories are told. That is the...”Read full review »

“Rodney read it like a cold read mispronouncing several words and number awkward phrasings.
The story made no sense at all.
Why would a perpetually starving creature leave a leg lying about?
The location was supposedly far off in the tullies but she walked there in one evening and then nearly...”Read full review »
