Good but ALOt of ads 👎🏼

Love the host and the way the stories are laid out. But half the episode is ads. It’s infuriating.

Good until the “I survived” podcast was absorbed

I listen to this podcast while I’m working and nothing is more frustrating than having to skip through an episode that has already been played. I go through this every day. 3 of the same I survived cases keep getting replayed until I have to skip them to find the next episode. The I survived cases aren’t bad by any means only when it’s being played 4 times over. Also too many ads.

Not great

I LOVE true crime, but this was a dud. Not many details into the case and a lot of fluffy nonsense.
