Incels - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Very thorough and well told! I enjoyed hearing what the uncles shared about their experience so we could learn more about it from a "real life" perspective. I highly encourage and recommend taking the time to listen to this series.

I enjoy listening to the podcasts from KT Studios, good reporting and detail. This is an important topic and needs to be addressed. However, there are way too many ads! I get it-it’s how they make money and yes I can and do skip them. But the producers should consider how the amount of ads could negatively affect their ratings and numbers of listeners.

I put off this series for a few weeks because I assumed the subject matter would enrage me. But it’s actually incredibly sad. It definitely opened me up to a perspective I’ve been reluctant to consider in the past. I really liked the roundtable with the researchers at the end, too.

The first three episodes felt rather familiar, almost a true crime vibe. But that fourth episode was incredibly insightful! So much respect for the men interviewed. First of all, being brave enough to agree to be interviewed, and second, how they articulated their perspectives so honestly.
As a sidenote, I can’t believe how many people gave the show a low rating because of the commercials! Journalism isn’t free, people. How do you think content like this is produced? Just skip the commercials if they bother you so much , or shell out a couple bucks for a subscription.

I listened to the first episode. Very little new content. Much of it was just warmed over stuff that we already heard a million time. There are way too many ads for other podcasts. You’ll try to skip forward and find yourself in the middle of an ad that is basically a trailer for another pod. So you get lost. This pod suffers from the same problems of so many mediocre true crime pods. Too little new content, too much filler.

It seems like the hosts - who never introduce themselves, by the way - have no idea what they’re talking about. Introducing incels as a “new idea” that came to prominence in the news via … the Idaho murders? Adolescence? Really? When credible news sources and specialized reporters have been covering the community for a decade.

The first episode is nothing you couldn’t learn, much more succinctly, from a news article or multiple other podcast episodes.

Also, again, very strange that the hosts never introduce themselves or the podcast really. Makes it very difficult to take them seriously when presenting information.
