Outstanding

Storytelling at its very best, notwithstanding that these stories are based on true and incredibly difficult times, the host is superb in his depiction of events.

Disappointing

I love the stories on this podcast but I’m so disappointed about how it has evolved compared other podcast in similar formats. I paid for the subscription for a few months - actually very little benefit paying the premium compared to other subscription. Rehashing old stories for paid content, disrespectful to long-time listeners. Very disappointing as this was my favourite podcast but it now looks like the creators don’t care enough.

Brilliant podcast

Absolutely one of the best podcasts out there, I have been listening for years, the stories are so well researched and the anonymous podcaster is an amazing story teller, each story just has me gripped. Thank you Martha ireland
