Great stories, slightly mishandled
As a listener of this show, I really appreciate the way the hosts give survivors a platform to share their stories. However, I often feel that the two hosts are the wrong people to be providing this platform. The more ads you put in an episode, the more money you make from it. I often find that an ad is put right in the middle of a survivors most vulnerable moments which feels exploitative and greedy. I also feel that there could be a lot more care put into the interviewing process. The tone from the hosts often feels as if they are gawking at a museum exhibit rather than empathizing with someone who has gone through unimaginable circumstances. There may be more care taken by the hosts that gets edited out, but personally I would like to hear the hosts get vulnerable too. If you’re going to profit off of these peoples stories, you might as well put some emotion on the line. I don’t know. The survivors’ stories are well told and educational, but the hosts need to cut the ads in the middle of the stories and have more empathy with the survivors they seem to just be poking and prodding at.

This is a very good podcast. I would prefer to have less host banter and filler though. The victim’s voice is all you need to convey the story.
