Great podcast!

Love this podcast! Totally captivating and great storytelling.

Fantastic? No. Entertaining? Sure.

Amateur reporting, too much narration, inaccurate representation of facts and clear evidence of some really lazy research (not throughout, but definitely in some places— there are moments that she really goes the extra mile and others she just obviously didn’t take the time.) A story like this should have been done by someone a bit more advanced and with a bit more experience in my opinion. Great story though, worth a listen if you’re looking to kill time.

Too much narration

Way too much Celia narration. I’m not interested in listening to her tell Dom’s story. I want to hear it from Dom himself. Comes across as an amateur production from a host that is not knowledgeable enough on the subject.
