Zealot

I found you from the moonwalking show! I know it’s faaaar too late to change the name, but surely “see you last Tuesday” can be merched. On ep 3 of binging, I’m diggin’ it, thank you!

I loved this show so much! The quirky sound cues and fun storytelling really set it apart! Would love to hear more!!!!!

I’m still new and working my way through, and at Ep. 3 I was thinking I wasn’t so keen on this podcast. But I kept listening, and it’s grown on me. (I had the same experience with another podcast that I now love - and where I heard about this podcast - “My Favorite Murder.”) It’s definitely in-depth and covers lesser-known cults, which is interesting (can anyone say Chilean Nazi cult?). I like that Jo has a different co-host each time, and that they choose the cult. My only big complaint is that there are snacks put out during the recording, and while they at least don’t chew or swallow into the mics, it is very obvious when someone is drinking, has their mouth full, or has just swallowed a bite of food. It’s distracting and a bit annoying.

I was a listener when Zealot was ongoing and today when I was cleaning out my podcast feed I was reminded about how much joy it brought. It’s just all the best parts of what true crime was in its prime and almost none of the bad. I don’t know if you still see the reviews for this Jo, but you brought smiles to so many of our faces. Thank for all the fun.
