this podcast would be so awesome if it weren't for how obvious the creator makes it to his audience how LITTLE he cares about delivering a story and how MUCH he cares about making his little dollar amount on ads. holy hell there are more ads than story on each episode! As a podcaster who has absolutely used ads, this is f**king gratuitous and insulting to audiences. Not to mention he clearly went all willy nilly with it and didn't give a shit if he was dropping ads in the middle of sentences lol
Really great show. Wonderful acting and very professional. Those Brits around to remember the 90s will recognise the writer/lead actor from very many tv primetime shows. Mystery adventure. I hope to see the story develop in future seasons.
really is good I've had to wait till couple episodes have played so can listen to 2/3 at a time I've 3 episodes to listen to. 👍
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️so far so good
Ooh. Great first episode....
