Customer Reviews
I like it.
I like the show. I’m nowhere near Baltimore, but stories are stories and I enjoy listening to most of them. My only criticism is that as a podcast, you should be very concerned with sound, and the quality therein. Both of the hosts sound like absolute hot garbage, and can barely be understood. It’s bad.
❤️❤️❤️
Love it.
Cringy hosts.
Too many staggered sentences and unnecessary pauses.
