The ads are so disruptive and very long. The episodes are short to being with and the actual episode is about 50% ads, and I’m not exaggerating. I DNFed after like the fifth episode because it was hard to follow with all the constant interruptions. And I know the zodiac story well! There are 2-4 min ads at the beginning and end of every episode and at least two ad breaks during the actual episode that are also usually 3-4 mins long.
I am all for podcasters making a living and don’t fault the vast majority of creators for using ads, I’ve used the promo codes several times to support them, but this one is excessive to the point of annoyance. Please reconsider how you finance your show as you’ve lost me as a listener over it and it sounds like many others as well based off the other reviews.

This is honestly a pretty well-made podcast, has consistent pacing, largely keeps the listener engaged, and definitely humanises the victims. That being said, the sheer amount of advertisements make it really annoying to listen to.

The first ten episodes of this are really interesting and compelling. The show gets a little lost around episode 11, but eventually finds its way back. My biggest complaint is the crazy amount of ads in this show. I fast forwarded through most, but it was a bit annoying. Overall this is a great podcast - story, narration, and even the music. Loved it.

Really enjoyed this podcast but the amount of ads in the show was really frustrating. There was almost as many ads as their was content in each episode. But seems like this is how all of iheartradio shows are these days.

This is a 30 minute podcast and the constant ads make the content unlistenable. After one episode, I quit.
I’d like to listen to this podcast but the amount of ads make all the research and thought the authors put into the show a waste.

About 1/3 of every short episode is ads, it’s maddening to try to listen to it. It WOULD be a good podcast, sadly,
it’s unlistenable unless you can easily forward through all of the ads. Never listened to a podcast with so much advertising. It’s a deal-breaker.
