Love your podcast, love you!

Hey ya guys!
I started listening to your podcast a month ago and I’m already hooked! I’m on ep74 now.

Love you lots!

First podcast I listened to and I’ve been hooked since 2017

I started listening way way back when it was just less than 20 episodes in and I’ve been in tune since then.

These wonderful individuals have the most entertaining banter and they make me feel like I’m inside the studio laughing with them. The stories are always great and researched well enough. My bf hates the sporadic side comments throughout the audio BUT I LIVE FOR IT.

Love from the Philippines.

Funny, Always waiting for new content

This is one of the podcasts that I really wait for for new episodes. They're really funny in a not crass way, and the stories are terrifying. It's a good balance of comedy and horror. I remember listening to this while at the gym, not a good idea. I almost crushed myself with weights trying to stifle a laugh.

One thing I'm going to say is, I still haven't listened to the early EARLY episodes because the audio is so bad. It would be an awesome gift for us fans if you can rerecord or salvage the audio quality for those episodes. I swear, I almost did not listen to you guys because I listened to the first episode first. I'm pretty sure a lot has been turned away from your podcast because of the quality. Love you lots em, xtine, gio, and juniper :)
