Too short, too cheesy, tons of ads

“- This podcast takes inherently fascinating stories and doesn’t do them justice. It’s like some investor somewhere thought we didn’t have enough time on our hands or long enough attention spans to listen to something for more than 20 minutes. They’re 21-23 minute episodes, but like 6-8 minutes of that is ads.
- The narrator is trying to be real ‘dateline’ about it, but it’s just too much. She sounds like some hyper-exaggerated character from a carnival. Just explain to us what happened, like a friend telling us something interesting, and interview people for longer; let the participants and witnesses tell the story.
- It also wastes a ton of time in its writing. Before every ad break, they do a snippet of what comes next, and a hook to get us through the ad break, like it’s a TV show. Then when it comes back from the ad, a recap. You don’t need to convince us to keep listening, we can skip ads. It comes off as desperate. Cumbersome to listen to”

“I try hard not to be critical of voices in general and especially women’s voices (ladies face a lot of scrutiny for their voices, most of if undue, I believe) but dang the voice acting and narration makes this whole show impossible for me to enjoy. Like all the other reviewers are saying, speak...”Read full review »
