1. Hi there

   I just listened to the podcast and found most of it fantastic, as usual. However Trouble Jones’ story made me extremely uncomfortable, to the extent I think it required a warning.

   I really, really, don’t like listening to a story when its success requires that the audience laughs along with the hijinks that follow a woman’s alleged rape. A woman who is not the speaker, is not there to speak for herself, and who we are clearly being asked to see as the ‘baddie’ in the story.

   I found it self-involved, unfunny, devoid of reflection, tone deaf and disturbing.

   Kevin, I’m disappointed you chose this story. I don’t have a problem with explicit or challenging stories. However this story was not up to your usual standard and puts me off listening to future shows.
