One of the best I heard from over a long time.

I recently listened to this podcast and also thought it was extremely well done. I don't usually listen to podcasts, and was surprised to find a thread for it here. Highly recommend for those interested. JMO MOO

Going to be the lone voice of dissent (sorry). Maybe I listen to too many podcasts, but I found the pacing off, especially in the second half of the (very short) series. I thought it was building to another twist or reveal, but there really wasn’t any—the case is just what you think it is.

There was also a fair amount of filler and over-explanation. I felt like I was listening to an entry-level BBC documentary.

(I’m not saying podcasts need to be overly twisty, graphic, melodramatic, long, etc; in fact I prefer calmer and professionally researched ones like Bear Brook. This one was … let’s say, almost soothing. As in, naptime.)
