Customer Reviews
Insightful, well done
Insightful, compelling, and informative. A side of the art world you don’t often hear about. So happy I chanced about this brilliantly well done podcast. Now, I want a place to discuss all these thought provoking topics and try to find commonalities and differences.
Interesting Topic, nice pacing
Love this podcast! If you are looking for an investigative, true crime but not gruesome, well produced, documentary style podcast to listen to while doing the dishes, this is a good one.
Love it
