4 stars because season 1 was better than 2
Season 1 was incredible, 5 stars, and season 2 had potential; however, the hosts mannerisms seriously devalue the content of the show. The female host uses an unnatural and forced cadence and inflection in her speech patterns, and the male host has an aggressively obvious speech impediment (he can’t say his Rs and instead pronounces them like Ws). There is a possibility that this R-W swap is a lesser known British accent, but either way, unfortunately, his way of speaking is distracting, and a more suitable host definitely should have been chosen. Aside from these critiques, the show has a lot of interesting and detailed information on the previously secret financial operations and crimes the Hermit Nation conducts to keep their missile program afloat. It’s really intriguing to learn about the lengths that North Korea will resort to to secure funds. Overall I enjoyed this podcast, despite its hosts.

I literally hang out for this podcast drop every Monday. What an incredible story full of twists and turns. Told in a very engaging way.

Not my usual lane of podcast. But ep 1 was excellent. Interesting story (so far), well told and well produced. I’m intrigued, I’m irritated with the typical American arrogance, I’m feeling the ominous threat of ‘what next?’ with the Lazerous group and I’m curious about the bigger picture.
