Love it!

I really like the topics for this podcast and I really like the ones with Chris and Johnny (That’s... odd). My only complaint is that I wish Carter would get a better mic, it’s a little distracting when he sounds like he’s underwater but Chris and Johnny sound like they’re right next to you. Other than that I love you guys and I hope you keep it going!

It’s been a while since i listened. I started auditing my podcasts that I listen/used to listen to. I heard to the latest a episode and I was hooked again. Such an interesting show. Love the hosts, love the humor, and really love the creepy history!! Keep it up!

Great detail and hosts

I came late to this podcast after talking to one of the hosts. We discussed some things at a social gathering in January 2020. The amount of detail and backstory they get on their subject matter is great and compelling. Keep up the great work!
