“For the most part, I was able to get past the host’s strained timbre and propensity for ending an interviewee’s sentences with sensational conclusions. Sure, these people invested to get rich quick, but they were also victims of fraud and deserved my sympathy. There was a distinct lack of emphasis on how “Jane” wasn’t just a victim of a conman, but of a sexual predator and -by nature of her being too young to give consent- a rapist. Sadly, these flaws are par for the course in podcasting.
Then came episode 7, with “experts” providing analysis of the podcast’s subject without having access to a full forensic exam, history, or interviews with people who know him other than his victims. One such interviewee claims Hamish is without doubt a sociopath or psychopath, while simultaneously saying he can’t speak to Hamish’s behaviour as he hasn’t performed an exam. Another “expert” -an alleged professor in the field- frequently uses the word “crimogenic” when he should be saying criminogenic. This is an essential word in forensic behaviour and criminology studies, and is learned within the first week of any tertiary education in the area. A professor should know how to say it, especially if going on a podcast to “educate” the public.
Ultimately, this podcast is beating a dead horse. It’s going nowhere narratively speaking, and in terms of quality, it’s going downhill fast.”

“I’m sure it’s a great podcast but the narrator pronounces every S sound as a loud “shhh” noise and it’s honestly too annoying to listen to.”
