Klantrecensies
Excellent show
Really enjoyed this podcast series; wonderful to get so much context and depth.
Real feel
I Really enjoyed listening to the first season which is about the Salem witch-hunt. I’m from holland and for me, it felt like a real story, without to much “American flavor” which repelled me before with some other Podcasts made in USA.
Really nice job putting all the facts into a good to listen “story” 👌
