I absolutely adore this podcast!! I found it through the 1996 Everest episode, and haven’t stopped listening since! Jasmines voice is so soothing and perfect for story telling! Listen, listen, listen to this pod!

My new fave podcast. Fascinating. Everything explained in a way that is easy to digest but full of brilliant research. Like talking to your best friend about your favourite subject. I’ve learnt so much and enjoyed it so much. Hoping for new episodes soon!

I love the way Jasmin presents the information - like listening to a friend tell a story. I find her voice very soothing. She puts a lot of time and work into her research, and I appreciate her conscientious delivery. Can’t wait for the next disaster story. You’re wonderful, Jasmin!

Very interesting content. Very detailed but easy to follow. Great way to introduce disasters and provide sources if listeners want to dig deeper. Please keep releasing pods!

And it doesn’t sound like you’re having an especially wonderful time doing it either.

It’s not a fancy production, but Jasmin covers the basics really well. Thanks for your thorough research, and for taking the time to explain things simply for us!

Unfortunately I had to take off a star because of the painful vocal fry going on. Can’t watch more than 1 or 2 episodes at a time. Well researched and read naturally. Just wish she’d use her normal voice, or clear her throat.

It would be nice if we could understand what you are saying most of the time.

Sorry cant deal with that annoying, irritating voice. Shame cos I really wanted to listen to it.

The topics are so interesting and she covers the information pretty thoroughly, but I cannot listen to this podcast because of the hosts cadence in how she speaks and her breathing. She sounds constantly out of breath and it’s as if she speaks all these run-on sentences that causes her to need to...Read full review »

The presenters voice and delivery is super annoying, the constant rise of the voice at the end of each sentence, the big breaths etc made this unlistenable. That voice, urrgghhh.

Thanks for researching these disasters! You present them in an easy to follow yet very informative too!
Rainbowdaisy23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/12/23
Interesting, factual and educational :) Good podcast voice easy to listen, it’s allways a sad time when you scroll down and all you see is played played played played!

Wooden and boring. Listen to Crash Bang Wallop
Redagnes via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/29/23
I get genuinely excited when a new episode comes out. The host does a fantastic job of sharing interesting histories in a compelling way - I always learn something new and never get bored.

Well researched and fascinating topics we should learn from. Find Jasmine’s voice very soothing. Keep up the good work, much appreciated in nyc!
Loretta Dee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/23
This is what I want in a podcast. Minimal banter and other filler. Maximum juicy information, based on good sources, no exaggeration or judgment. Just telling it like it is. Jasmine is like that well informed friend who also knows how to relate a good narrative. Invaluable.
Whygodwhy2876 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/26/23
I love the relatability of the presenter and enjoyed hearing the summaries of different historical events. Thanks for the hard work of the presenter.

Love this pod! So fun and interesting to listen to!
Majemonster via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/23
A coworker recommended this podcast to me and I really enjoy it. I appreciate the story telling method used. She offers just the right amount of information and not too much as to overwhelm the listener. Great job!
Gee Ez via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/22
Good stories but the sing song fried voice is annoying and you miss what is said. Wish I could give more stars.
Bad Advuse via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/16/22
Love the storytelling, feels like a friend telling you a story, except it’s thoroughly sourced! Great voice too, soothing
casacase via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/20/22
So poorly narrated and researched I found myself pausing the podcast to collect my breath. Save yourself the frustration of listening to someone blather on about a topic they don’t care enough about to relay with any conviction. Terrible.
noflowersplease via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/22
Tried listening - woman annoying, fast and all over the place - hard to listen to
blahdhdjjfb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/17/22
To future podcast lister. If you read this, and listen, after enjoyed the show you must comment and 5 stars. Give ‘em a reward for the hard work they put into the episode.
MSUcatz1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/07/22
So many interesting stories about disasters delivered as if you are having a conversation with a friend, not being lectured to. Highly recommend.

SusieRTH via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/10/22
Perfect mix of good research, soothing voice, the most lovely accent on the planet and interesting topics!
flaennsie via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 03/22/22
I’m a bit of a podcast junkie.. and this woman covers all her bases. It’s compelling but also grounded in facts. She tempers her opinions and let’s the listener piece together their own conclusions. I LOVE this discovery.
she2pointOh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/22
Great content!!
KariCrawDaly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/22
Good research and presentation!
Kalpana P via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/15/22
I love this show! One of my favourites because it is engaging, and there are no ads.
1_Peach_1 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/18/21
Only listened to the first episode so far but very impressed by the professionalism. Thorough research presented in a user friendly way. Will be keen to hear more.
Jemotus via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/14/21
Jasmin does a great job of summarizing the stories without filling them with a bunch of fluff. She’s unbiased and focuses on the facts while remaining relatable and fun to listen to. Thanks for a great podcast, Jasmin!

I love disaster stories and I love this podcast. Very well done!
saderfanatic via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/21
Just found your podcast and have only listened to a few so far but I really enjoy your work! You’ve clearly done a lot of research on each topic and do a great job delivering the story! Also very enjoyable to listen to it! Love it!
Canada Bill via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/25/21
Love this podcast! Factual and details that put you in it, with enough context and perspective to make a real story. *chef kiss*
ScooterHM via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/18/21
Great podcast. So much information is packed into each episode but it doesn’t feel overwhelming. The host does a great job of explaining things as if you don’t know anything at all about the story.
Rosie_Baillie via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/13/21
Some very interesting stories so far. I like the style of the host, who adds a bit of personality to proceedings. Great to hear stories I hadn’t heard of in a way that’s bite size (30 min chunks) and not preachy. Thanks!
TommiEdinburgh via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/10/21
I really enjoyed this first episode and can’t wait for more. Engaging and clear and also sensitive to those who were involved.
