Interesting story, terrible production

The authors should really consider reproducing this to address the audio issues. I am grinding my way through it.
Phone interviews sound like they were recorded off a first generation iPhone on speaker from across an empty room with a cheap mic. Some are simply indecipherable. Generally you can gather what was said by the witness from the follow up but it greatly reduces the enjoyment of an otherwise riveting story.

Audio is Terrible

I had to stop because the phone interviews were almost completely inaudible

Audio/Narration

I’m sorry but this might be the first podcast I do not finish. The interviews are very grating to the ears and the narration is robotic. Feels like someone is being forced to read for a class. The story becomes too difficult to follow because of how unpleasant the audio production is.
