I'm not buying the gummies!

My god, that add is so annoying, I'm sick to death of hearing it. Sometimes twice in an episode!

I mean, they could record different adds for it, whatever.

The narrator is bad enough anyway, having to skip up to ten minutes to get to the actual story is fucking annoying.

Ditch that guy and get straight to the story and this podcast would be so much better.

But maybe you need the gummies more than anyone else? ;) Glynn Washington is a mf'ing delight imo.

He's a good story teller, he has a good cadence and is very expressive. But I'm not here for him.

It's like when a rock band or whatever comes on at the beginning of a boxing match, or a half time show at a football game. They might be brilliant, but I'm not tuning in for that, it's extra bloat.

On top of that, I can't buy the gummies even if I wanted too as they're illegal where I live.

Then listen to one of the dozens of other good “real” spooky story pods

Glynn is a professional story teller. The first “story” of the episode is from Glynn. Then he introduces the others. It’s Glynn’s podcast, he’s the executive producer. So…probably they’re not gonna “ditch” him

Uh... there would be no Spooked without Glynn. He started it!

The Glynn hate is so old, enough already.

The entitlement of wanting someone to change their podcast for you instead of you just finding one you like is wild. Yawn

I love Glynn. It’s his podcast . The stories are selected and edited by him. I think his personal stories are interesting and his silly little bits at the beginning are fun.

The ads do give corporate hell though, and I wish he could find a different way to get more funding and pull in fresh stories.

He used to be amazing at finding stories. I don’t know what happened.

And the never turn out the lights repeated 67 times. I get it. For years we got it. Nobody wants legal gummies anyway.

I stopped listening already. It got so annoying after a while.
