Please Keep It Free

Nothing like finding a podcast you enjoy and then binging all the back catalogue for a few days while you work. That’s what I just experienced with the first 100 episodes of “Disturbed”.

My favorite episode out of the first 100 is episode 10, “Creeper in the Woods”. I also really enjoyed the short account of the campsite at the end of episode 30.

Only episodes that didn’t interest me were the fictional, creepy pastas featured on the special Halloween episodes. I only want to listen to the at least allegedly true stories. The completely fictional stuff doesn’t interest me in podcast form.

Overall the narrators do a better job than most podcasters in this genre at reading the stories. It’s difficult for me to keep paying attention if the narration is too monotone and dry.

Ultimately, I prefer stories spoken by the actual experiencers, such as a “Radio Rental” or “Spooked”. Those two podcasts are some of the best in this genre, but they started placing most of their episodes behind paywalls. This podcast has been a nice alternative to those and am glad I found it.

Please continue to keep most of your content free, you’ll build a larger listenership that way.
