“Great show!! Thanks Marine. I was an electrician and was with Alpha co 1st CEB attached from UT platoon back in 05’. We went to Ramadi Iraq. No cool stories like these, just normal war stories. Keep’em coming. I like to listen in the pitch black sitting with my dog.
Thanks again

“I’ve listened to every single Mr. Ballen story on his YouTube channel. I was excited to hear about “Wartime Stories.” I listened to one at random… and at the end I’m like, “That’s it? So they saw a shadow move and that’s the entire story?” I listened to another on and it was, “A creepy sound...”Read full review »

“Love this show. Luke’s voice is great, and the content equally so. Personally, not only are the topics interesting and engaging but I also really like that he gives you background and context for the stories as well. It’s neat to be able to learn a little history while also getting to hear about...”Read full review »

“I find these stories really arresting for several reasons. First of all, what a voice for radio/poscast or any kind of speaking/narrating, Luke Lamano has! Also, the acting is solid as well. The research and writing that Lamano and his team do is top notch. These stories are from former military...”Read full review »

“The tone is very flat. It’s difficult to understand what is going on except by the words. His voice doesn’t express the mood or intensity. He has a nice radio voice. Like a commercial voice. Its a very strong clear voice. I will keep listening though for a while”
