The stories are cool, but out of the 3 episodes I've listened to they've already twice brought in some preacher or exorcist to say "it's demons" or "it's satanists". Wow, thank you for your input bible man, very cool.

Yeah I really liked the random episodes I first listened to like the 4 part medium series around episode 20, which was fun, and a few other one shots.
Jack is a great host, and in general I like his specific demeanor, the right mix of sympathetic, and not being too credulous, but if I'd started with say the hatman episodes I would have just stopped.

Like how can you bring on a christian dude who says "yeah it's demons" and not bring up abuse of benadryl. Especially when one of the first people interviewed directly mentions allergic reactions and the christian kook even brings up drugs in his demon story in a coyling way.

I don't think the show would be better if Jack was openly skeptical on his show, but half of what makes this work is selling you on the host not being a sucker.
