the content is so good I'd say support it if you are able, but I can come up with some pirate links if you DM me, no worries

They charged me a few days ago for the 25 bucks which is how I figured out they have a season 4 coming. However I went to Stitcher premium and their closing down on the 29th. I don't know how I'm supposed to access any of this stuff.

Whatre the best episodes of prior seasons to listen to? Never checked it out the podcast but always saw it reffered to.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

yeah each season really tells one big ongoing story so it's best to listen to all of a given season sequentially if you have the time. I couldn't get into the show at all for like a year because I couldn't focus enough to really follow it, but man once I got into the cuba and korea seasons I devoured them really fast, they are gripping.

Korea is darker for sure, for obvious reasons, but very good. If you really want to you can just read the episode descriptions and jump in at whatever part catches your interest most. As long as you know the "characters" involved and general outlines of the conflict you should be able to follow

They’re extremely in depth, sequential seasons that really need to be listened to in order. All 3 are absolutely excellent but the Cuba one is my favorite (S2)

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

It's worth listening to all the main episodes of the last seasons.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I’ll echo what others have said, that you can’t really pick episodes out of order. That said, while all 3 season are great I really S2 (Cuba) is really exceptional and the best one to start with.

They do have supplemental episodes though. While the seasons are narrated in a very serial manner, some supplemental episodes just plug in some interesting background, like one about the film industry in the DPRK.

That Snake Eater drop at the end was perfect. Great episode, can't wait to listen to the rest

Anyone have an idea how to pay without iOS without a credit card? I was gonna just pirate it and send em the money on Paypal or something but I can't even do that because I can't find anything

Edit: I found a way by having a US friend do it lol.

But fucking hilarious how they said "Ahmed Shah Massoud" because I thought he was about to say "Ahmed Chalabi" and was wondering how the fuck he got in there

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Right haha, my brain autocompleted it the same way

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

you know this is fucked when Ben Laden might be the least evil dude in the cast and you feel bad about Najibullah

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

As I promised myself a month ago, I paid up this time to make up for the prior seasons I pirated. Haven't had a chance to listen yet but I have it ready to go.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I'm very ignorant of this. When I got to episode 3, I had a "well, there's your problem" moment. This is going to get darker than S3, isn't it?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Just finishing the mainline episodes. Absolutely amazing, really making me question the Pakistani Intelligence.

I don't have home wifi, can anyone spare a download?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

wdym? like a place you can stream it from? or do you mean a download link?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Download link. Streaming isn't a thing for me

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

you can download the pod from their public feeds just fine. any reasonable podcast app should support it

If you want a pirate copy shoot me a DM
