Infamous

I have been loving these episodes and the reporting but I’m listening to the girl boss episode and someone is audibly snoring in the background. She apologizes for the noise at first but then allows it to continue. I had to turn it off- how unprofessional and odd not to address/correct. It’s so uncomfortable I thought I was hearing things at first.

All the topics interesting, and have listened for years but I don't think I can continue. The telling of them is so bad. The stories jump all over the place without making connections. I often can't tell that the next episode in a series was a continuation of a previous episode because it will just pick up a different persons story and go on about it without relating it back to anything. And when a series finishes I am often left wondering what happened and expecting more parts because so many lose ends were left open. It is a very frustrating podcast to listen to, and I usually find myself googling the story after just to actually get a sense of what actually happened. And the past few months they are pushing the recommendations too hard. I do not want 3 "you might also like" episodes every week when I only get 1 episode a week that is the actual show. And the ads are out of control. I get that you need ads, but 5-6 ad breaks in a 25 min show is INSANE. That is more ads that show at this point.

This podcast is so bad it’s almost like it’s a parody, except it’s not.

This is my favorite podcast!!!!!!
