What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

The stories are interesting but not too interesting; and the narrator’s soothing British accent is perfect for relaxing. But as you start to drift off, SUPER LOUD ads jolt you awake—which kind of defeats the whole purpose of a bedtime story. I understand why they have ads, but why are they so much louder than the rest of the show?

GVARY · Dec 2024

Love the narrator’s voice for these podcasts. I usually end up listening twice - once while I’m falling asleep and agin the next day so I can hear the whole stories.

Darrylhunt · Nov 2024

Their stories are not unique but their narration and tone are top tier. Their story teller is so good that no visuals are needed to enjoy an episode. I find myself listening to longer episodes, 45 minutes to an hour, something I never do with other channels. Found them here from watching their youtube channel, except podcasts are better for...bedtime. I wish they would transfer more of their videos over to podcast format as youtube can be extremely disruptive by injecting too many loud commercials at the wrong time. On a side note, I also their like WarTime Stories Channel, also good and more of the stories are original.

Micho21 · Nov 2024

I have been listening to this podcast since almost the beginning. And my opinion is it is one of the best out there Tony is a laid back every day person like us and he lets the people tell their stories without interference. And he doesn’t judge anybody that had a experience no matter what thanks Tony for y’all’s awesome content

*Please read the whole thing* I am not trying to be mean or rude. I’m offering my honest feedback because I appreciate this show and know it can be better. I’d like this podcast 1,000% more if the speaker would STOP forcing his voice into an artificial and unnatural cadence. Not sure what he’s trying to accomplish by making his voice the way it is, but it’s not working. It is smothering the quality content this show is capable of offering! The reason I know that he’s “trying” to do something with his voice is because he is not talking how real human beings speak! The normal cadence of a person’s voice contains variations. What makes a storyteller compelling is the unpredictability of their pauses, speed, intonation, and emphasis. When a person rigidly follows the same rhythmic formula for every. single. sentence. the listener might as well plug their headphones into a metronome. Metronomes are boring and put people to sleep. This narrator’s uncanny imitation of a metronome is making these interesting stories seem boring. ¡PLEASE, heed what people are saying in these comments! If you do nothing, and eventually comments like mine stop rolling in, that is not a good sign. All that means is people have given up on trying to improve this show and just stopped listening.

RenMarie94 · Aug 2024

I have heard you speak when you were not narrating the story, and your speaking voice is fine. Easy to listen to. But then, like a bunch of other people have said, the way you narrate is completely monotone, and then suddenly emphasize some syllable that has nothing to do with the importance of that syllable, it makes this almost impossible to listen to. If you would just read this in your normal voice, you could have a great podcast. But right now you’re doing a lot of good work to research and write, and you’re ruining it with the delivery. How do you not hear this in editing?
