Customer Reviews
Best voice - Derek Hayes
Best podcast to listen to strange, weird, and scary experiences.
(Also, I think the episodes with the nights at the round table are hilarious.)
no more boring guests please
Derek is great though
Good content if you can get past the host
Every time I think, "why haven't I listened to Monsters Among Us for a while?" I listen to a few episodes and remember. The host, Derek, absolutely loves the sound of his own voice. He also mispronounces words, which is even more painful because he speaks s-l-o-w-l-y, with long gaps between words. I thought his wife Sarah died the other day because he was talking about how she had covid and passed ... it onto him.
He also has affected a deep, gravelly voice since about season 3. Maybe it would be fine if he didn't dissect each story for way too long. You don't need to go down the whole list of what noises animals make at night EVERY time someone hears something in the woods. We don't need a l-o-n-g speculative explanation about how something could be natural.
He also spends probably 1/4 of each episode "making announcements" about merch, his documentary, etc. I wouldn't mind if it didn't take SO LONG. So many of the stories are like, "this just happened yesterday, April 30, 2022," and the episode is from September 2023. If he spent more time on submissions than he did talking about them, he'd get through a lot more. If I do listen, I skip as much of him as I can, which sometimes is hitting the 45-sec skip button nine or ten times.
I much prefer Anything Ghost with Les Wahl. He may mispronounce words, but he doesn't act like he's God's gift to paranormal podcasts.
