Customer Reviews
Folklore episode
So I listen to a lot of podcasts and the poor ones I skip immediately. I’ve never even commented on the various podcasts that I like, but I feel compelled to write here for how badly judgmental these podcasters were. Initially I was interested to hear a different perspective on the Folklore episode but it turned out to be a shallow bias view on the artist instead of the contents of the music. This was just horrible to listen to. The podcasters had already judged the album and the artist from what popular culture and the tabloids have created about the artist. What’s the point of doing a review when you’ve already decided you hate the singer and everything she stands for? That might not be their intention but that’s how it comes across.
