People I should have Known

Revisado: 03-03-25

As always Malcolm Gladwell is ferreting out nuggets of wisdom and people I feel like I should I have already known. He has a kindred spirit in Kenya and the two of them play very well off one another. Fun, interesting, and educational all at once.

Fascinating Stories from Dog Training Legends

Revisado: 02-16-25

More people need to listen to this podcast. You don't have to be an experienced trainer to appreciate what these people and their dogs have done. The stories range from Hollywood star canines to the plains of Africa. Working dogs are everywhere.

I can't believe I wasted a credit on this

Revisado: 11-03-24

The voice actor has all the range of someone reading tax code. I quit part of the way thru a boring, dry lecture on what bdsm entails. Instead of a scandalous sex aspect to the story it made the whole practice as exciting as paint drying.

Yet another immature heroine

Revisado: 08-08-24

She's 20 years old and an experienced medical professional but she bounces back and forth with emotions like a hormonal tweener. People get seriously hurt in obviously foreseeable events and she's shocked! DNF.

Started great but ended with an uninspired Christian thud

Revisado: 06-06-24

Loved the story to begin with. Somewhere around the 2/3 point the author ran out of steam and broke out every God he could think of including Greek and Christian dieties. Then the storyline went biblical and the great world building went in the garbage can.

Worst CIA Operative Ever

Revisado: 03-03-24

This guy makes friends everywhere. Tells the hot nurse answers to every question she asks because not knowing will make her sad. There was a bungee cord moment around every corner that yanked me out of the story. This series had so much potential and I feel like the author failed it making it very meh.

I love an apocalypse novel that goes out with a bang.

Revisado: 12-05-23

Great story. Kudos for writing believable teenagers which are enjoyable to read and not so annoying they take away from the story. Love the concepts and the giant broccoli!

DNF 25%

Revisado: 06-04-23

This woman is supposedly a professional dog trainer and handler, but her methods are positive only. For instance she's staring a fear aggressive dog in the eyes and using a clicker. That would not only be a very unusual training method for police dogs, staring an aggressive dog in the eye will get you bit 99% of the time.

I probably would have enjoyed the story despite the well trodden storyline, but the huge errors in training procedures killed it for me.

Very thoughtful exploration of the phenomenon

Revisado: 04-14-23

There was so much meat to chew there really should be another season of this podcast. The exploration was thoughtful and interesting.

Series is getting worse instead of better

Revisado: 04-13-18

Why does a good heroine have to become immature, emotionally stunted as the storie continues. The capable woman from book 1 now throws tantrums, makes mistakes, and has developed horrible judgement. I'm done here. I don't want to watch Mac in her playpen anymore.
