Certainly doesn’t disappoint!

I’m a big fan of Dateline content. I find that it never really disappoints. The only disappointment I will point out is that I pay for a subscription so there should be WAY MORE NEW CONTENT dropped. Otherwise, my subscription seems like kind of a waste

Waste of money

I can’t believe what a money grab this is. Little or no new content and it’s basically a 2 hour episode extended into a “podcast”. Canceled it.

Lots of twists and turns

The Girl in the Blue Mustang was hands down my favourite podcast. It took the misery out of cleaning house while I listened to it. Very intriguing, great writing and presentation by Keith Morrison. A definite five star rating. Love Dateline podcasts.
