Customer Reviews
Brilliant Podcast.
One of the best. Great Job.
Quite good
Really engaging and interesting characters. Only criticism is that the narrator spends too much time trying to get Chris to say he was betrayed - he makes the point over and over again
Great Story, Not the Best Podcast
It’s an interesting and engaging story, but the podcast is littered with annoying sound effects and the interviews/narration jump all over the place every other second.
Has great potential, but let down by poor editing and narrative structure.
