Customer Reviews
I’d give this 5 stars but the ads are ridiculous
Great story marred by the ads.
Narration 👎🏼
This could be a very interesting podcast. Unfortunately the narrator sounds terrible!
I was expecting more action
This podcast prodcution was bland I was expecting for action and details but it just came off as a narrative and pieces of the story put together. The fist episode was good but later ones just dragged on and I had no rush to move to the next one.
