J Cunninghan ,

By far my most favourite podcast

So happy to have found Radio Rental, it’s my favourite podcast - love the spooky stories

Not ok

I used to really love this podcast when it was more paranormal or extra terrestrial stories. But the last episode was about a woman escaping a r*p*st and then a story about child trafficking. Those harrowing very real stories mixed with this silly male comedy character is really not a good listen.
Do better.

Expertly Produced Story Telling

Every episode is a gem unto itself with a collection of well-told stories.
