Subscription is disappointing and the female host sounds boring
The only reason I wasn’t truly annoyed about the subscription to finish this podcast is because the host, Shoko, killed the journey for me. Her voice is so boring, deadpanned, and uninteresting. She couldn’t sound less engaged. In fact, I don’t believe for a second that she’s ever done any work in journalism before based on the way she talks and sounds. The podcast veers off early on, going into immense detail about different people that the “night movers” helped. I understand why this was maybe thought to be interesting, but it doesn’t take away from the fact that you’re avoiding the discussion of the actual person who disappeared who may or may not have been moved by these night movers. The topic seems fascinating, but the actual execution is a disappointment. This is a great podcast for white people who are obsessed with Japan. Other than that, the delivery is BORING.
