Customer Reviews
I give this podcast an A+
Courage, adventure, suspense, heroism, rebellion, daring actions, tumultuous journeys, survival~ this podcast has it all! It is very well produced and even based on a true story. I hope there’s another season.
Another great Imperative production
Just finished episode one. The beginning was tough to get into as I don’t enjoy a lot of narration, and the host wasn’t doing it for me. As the show carry’s on and you get to meet the main character in this story, it gets a lot more captivating and immersive. (Episode 2 the host confidence seems a lot stronger, keep going!)
The American Skyjacker is a great podcast from this team, the host is obviously passionate about that story and makes for a great listen.
