“I usually enjoy this podcast a lot but this week’s episode had all the elements of the woke agenda so I stopped listening. It’s a boring topic by now so I’m disappointed you couldn’t do better, like you normally do. Hopefully next week you’ll return to your normal story style.”

“Really great content and guests. The writing is good, I think the stories and explanations are done well. My gripe is with the hypothetical questions asked to the listener, which are jarring. I’m already thinking about what I would do, I don’t need to be asked directly, it completely disrupts the...”Read full review »

“It is so odd to make a show like this, then have, what appears to be, only one source for the info. This one source, who speaks often, is frequently provably inaccurate and seems to present his assumptions, in many cases, as common opinions or even facts. It is sad, because the horrors the CIA...”Read full review »

“The channel offers a mix of the good and the bad. Many of the autobiographical stories and explorations are fascinating. Some of the historical retellings tend to be more varied. As an example, relying on a conspiracy theorist like David Talbot to weigh in on the early history of the Cold War...”Read full review »

“I love this podcast and these stories, many of which I’m familiar with or had at least heard of, but getting a complete telling of them really pulls the curtain back.
Not sure why so many people are leaving negative reviews claiming political bias. The CIA has done something’s that, with today’s...”Read full review »

“I am keen listener to Spycast podcast and have enjoyed every episode I have listened to. This one, COINTELPRO left me feeling like there is hope in the world when good people do speak up. I don’t do reviews, but this podcast deserved one. Thank you.”

“There seem to be a lot of negative reviews on the podcast and I think that comes from the misconception that the guests are without their own bias. These stories are really interesting and should be used as a starting point to look into a topic further especially on a political or polarizing...”Read full review »

The stories are informative and the people who are so bothered by different...”Read full review »

“Loved ‘The Watchmaker’, the story of the attempt to bring down the Real IRA. The guest helps by being informative, to the point, long on facts and short on speculation, conjecture and conspiracy theories (which can plague a few episodes of True Spies).
Sophia Di Martino’s narration is spot on,...”Read full review »

“Daisy Ridley’s season has taken a decidedly anti-western anti-NATO stance. It’s too bad. We may not be perfect, but we are the “good guys.”
Daisy is a little too hyperbolic and emphatic, too.”

“Leftists are racists, not so-called conservatives or rightwingers. From the Civil War to Jim Crow to the Civil Rights era to cancel culture, CRT, and the woke movement, it’s ALWAYS been the Democratic Party behind white supremacy and oppression of Blacks. The Republican Party stands for freedom...”Read full review »

“Each episode (especially undercover cop) is such an overdramatized tale. If an undercover feels the need to turn their “mission” into a fantasy episode then perhaps in the wrong business. It’s embarrassing listening to some of these. People wanting to create heros out of themselves. So unoriginal”

“I mostly enjoyed it until I started getting whiffs of political bias. Comparing Trump to Slobodan Milosevic ruined it for me. If it were something similar aimed at a D president I know you wouldn’t have aired it. In that statement he’s doing exactly what he’s accusing Trump of and you’re...”Read full review »
