  • Disappointed

    I would have given it a 5 star but I’m getting annoyed that I paid for TNTC+ for over a year, maybe two- and now they keep releasing the + episodes as normal episodes. What’s the point of paying for exclusive content if it’s just going to be released normally? If you don’t have content to release just don’t release anything…

  • Lost its way

    This show was excellent when it started- very well researched, sensitively presented. I used to subscribe but cancelled this year because it’s mostly interviews with other podcasters

    Disgusted with the Coquitlam RCMP. Fact is that if someone in BC wants to report an individual missing-police are obligated to take the report. Period.

  • Meh

    Most of the stories aren’t mysterious or creepy if that’s what you’re looking for.

    Many of the stories are just about druggies, vagrants, and miscreants who put themselves in that situation. Nothing interesting about drug deals gone wrong. Boring.
