    Last podcast on the left, their research is great but they lean heavily into their comedy to really make the story entertaining.

      I used to listen to them all the time.before the move to Spotify. Once they came out from behind Spotify and I could get them in my preferred app, I just couldn’t get back in the grove of listening to them. It seemed like for every 5 of their releases, I would find one interesting.

      Don’t let this stop anyone else from listening to them as they research the shit out of their topics. Their Jim Jones episodes were more informative than any other description I have ever heard.

        You can tell the difference between the episodes researched by them and their research team. I still listen to them from time to time, their recent series on the Survival on the Andes is harrowing, one of their best episodes in recent times.
