    Just enough but never too much. I’m praying for your wife’s health & recovery. Thank you for entertaining my brain 5….days…. a week👍🏽

    Garbage
  • AmyAutumn
    Love the content, but…
    The music playing loudly throughout the last segment is ridiculously distracting to the point I just skip through it entirely.
  • ellies34
    Good information
    The background jazz music is weird but the host and information are good
  • Julied5
    Bonus coverage on current hot topics *chef kiss*
    Have to echo the appreciation of your coverage on the Delphi case and am looking forward to more. Love the show’s format and the host’s cadence and execution is excellent. Keep up the good work!
  • Aimerzk
    Great Delphi updates
    Update: I just want to say thank you for covering the Delphi case. I have been following this story for years and to be able to get a daily recap of this trial is great and so appreciated! It’s so great to be able to listen to a few stories daily! I feel as if the wait isn’t as long for full regular sword and scale episodes. Thank you!

    My Daily Dose!

    Daily!
    I listen to Sword & Scale Daily while putting on my shoes and leashing up my dog for our morning walk. It’s a great way to start my day, every day. Thanks ✌🏼
  • Andipandis
    Great podcast
    Great podcast but the transitions between stories are loud and jarring
  • Spike 1954
    A well executed, nicely delivered, true crime podcast
    I like Ryan’s style. It’s a good compliment to Mike’s in the regular Sword and Scale feed. I am 70 years old, legally blind, and live alone with the terminally ill cat. It’s nice to have friendly voices sharing interesting stories with me throughout the day. That being said, I listen to a lot of podcasts and of course audiobooks. I look forward to the time when this podcast is available without commercials. I will certainly find a way to up my subscription to Sword and Scaleto receive it in that format. Good job everybody. I so appreciate your hard work. This is an addition, a postscript so to speak on my review. Sadly, I’m legally blind, and can’t read the words that I’ve already spoken however, what I wanna say this time is slightly different: I love the music that you play in the background at the closing of your Podcasts, relaxing lighthearted there should be calm as they are sorry and indirect contrast to the content of the podcast. Thanks Ryan. I start my day with you every day after CNN 5 Things so I get a dose of the interestingly violent news at the crack of Dawn.
  • Can I give it no stars?
    It’s a good 15 minutes every morning
    Full disclosure, I’m a financially supportive SAShole. That being said, the “daily” is a fun supplement. It’s narrated in a very conversational manner; as if your buddy was telling you a story. Don’t worry about the commercial support. If you don’t like em, there’s a fast fwd button for that, but sometimes I’ve actually found the ads useful…go figure. Give it a quick daily listen and if you like, subscribe to sword and scale plus. It’s not that expensive friends. If you can afford an iPhone, you can afford a subscription to an awesome ad-free podcast.

    Great Podcast!
    I love this podcast! I look forward to listening every day (even though it’s about horrible crimes!) and I really like Ryan’s voice!
  • MotherReebs
    Love the show but…
    the Harris/Walz add made me gag.
  • The Carpet Guy JB
    S&S is the best
    Love the new pod. I like getting short clips of all the new monsters as they come to light. The host is also great. Great voice , tone. Love the new guy.
  • Chiefkeeks
    So happy Daily is back!
    I was so sad when S&S Daily ended and I am SO HAPPY they brought it back! It has now become a part of my morning every day. Thank you!!
  • Joan Gold

  • DoucheCanoe562
    Ryan’s back!!!!
    I loved the first run of the show & was so sad when it ended! I’m beyond thrilled it’s back, with Ryan, & better than ever! Please don’t let the negative comments about ads frustrate you! Ads mean you’re bringing us free content & I appreciate it!!
  • Jodie in Utah
    👍👍👍👍👍
    Thanks for coming back and keeping us posted with the latest crazy 💩going on in the world of real life monsters.
  • Deeskidow
    SO glad this podcast is back
    I was so excited to see that this podcast is back! Short and sweet, it gets me my daily dose of true crime. keep up the great work and welcome back!
  • AshCrafts
    Amazing Coverage!
    I look forward to this podcast everyday. Thank you for taking the time to inform so clearly everyday!
  • ziIIa!
    Old show was better…
    5 stars because S&S is always the best, and I’m so glad this show is back. I was disappointed when I started listening again because it doesn’t seem as professionally done as it used to be. I just went back and listened to a 2019 episode and it’s far different. Host was more serious and less jokey. I’ll still listen of course, but the show was definitely better in earlier episodes - which is odd because shows usually get better with age.
  • Tommy Meneses
    Worthy to have the name “Sword and Scale”
    Simply put… You have become a part of my morning routine. Don’t change what you’re doing. bravo!
  • Spraybes
    Great companion to S&S
    I have really enjoyed the resurgence of S&S Daily!
  • sam215789
    Great!
    Love this show except the amount of commercials vs podcast time seems really heavy, can make it hard to listen to but I’ll still support!
  • CBus love
    Ugh Commercials!
    I love this show except the amount of commercials are annoying. I could get over the commercials but they seem soooo much louder than the actual podcast - just me? To eliminate the commercials, I’d be willing to pay. If only there was another way…
  • amitiel
    Glad this is back!
    Missed S&S Daily and I’m glad it’s back. I love that this includes stories from all over the US. (S&S tends to focus a lot on the Southeast so I am happy to hear stories from other places).
  • kristen.nova
    Best news Pod
    Love you!! please don’t go anywhere. You’re my favorite first podcast to listen to of the day. Great job.
  • ElRoyloco
    Awesome daily listen.
    Honestly glad I found this daily true crime podcast. It’s short and informative! Ryan’s voice is good and I like his sassy tone sometimes 🤣
  • issagory
    Podcast
    You are doing such a great job Ryan !! Have been enjoying this everyday !! Thanks 😃
  • Rhon15
    So happy you’re back!
    Longtime sashole/plus listener/watcher! Loved the daily before, love it even more now that you’re back in action! It’s great to have a few disturbing stories to start the day🩷
  • allyohfosho
    Yay! You are back!!!
    So glad this is back on “the air”!!! And to all the people complaining about the ads…there is a little button that will let you skip ahead 30 seconds…use it!!! You’re welcome. Also, if y’all listened to S&S, you would have heard Mike (aka Murder Daddy) tell us it would start as ad supported and would be added to the app if enough peeps sign up. Soooo, quit your complaining and get more folks to sign up. Rant over. Love you, Ryan!
  • oaular
    Glad it’s back
    Loved it then and still do. Ryan seems to have found his groove and I enjoy the way he tells the stories. Keep up the good work!!
  • MissMelanieRenee
    Please add this to the SAS app!
    I pay $20 every month for plus and I also listen to every episode of Daily. It would be so nice to access it all on one app. You're a great host and I hope that you can become a non-ad supported show! Keep doing your thing! You're amazing!
  • Mlucas200926
    LOVE
    Love!! I fully back all S&S productions!!! No one likes ads but that’s the point of rolling it out here first to see how it takes off. Excited for the S&S team for all the growth lately. They deserve it!!! 🔥🔥🔥
  • TonieMays
    Finally! So glad it’s back!
    All of those news articles I tell myself I’ll go back and look at but never have the time. I hope they add it to the app. I love it!
  • JimmyV1
    I’ve been a sas-hole since 2015 not going anywhere.
    I’m new to sns daily. I love everything about Sword and Scale so anytime I can get more content I am happy to soak it up. I heard the most recent episode where he read reviews which made me want to come and contribute to that. Thanks for everything you do. Know that you are appreciated. Also if you hate the ads so much there is a skip button very simple to skip over them if they bother you that much. I also pay for plus and am happy to do it. It’s the only show I support. I don’t normally pay for content. NOW, since I’ve been listening for so long and have been absolutely riveted to stories and sitting at work surrounded by mundane nonsense. I feel like I’m in my own world completely separate from the people walking around me. That’s powerful story telling and I support it. If you need to run ads as long as I can skip them I’m totally cool with it and will continue to pay and love everything you take the time to produce. Keep it coming thanks so much.
  • Freefromu22
    Love it!
    Thank you for all you do guys!
  • starslanger
    LOVE IT!
    Happy to support all sword and scale endeavors. Thrilled to have a daily dose of murder. Host is great, the stories are a spectacular DAILY reminder of the monsters that walk among us. Great way to fill the space between nightmares, PLUS, and base level content. 👏🏽👏🏽 thank you S&S!
  • -:jenks22:-
    “Now” too many ads
    I get making money, but this feels like a crazy cash grab. There is an ad in between each short story, meaning 2-3 minutes of a show under 15 minutes is ads. Also, Ryan says “now” A LOT. Now, using a filler word to prep a sentence is understandable, but it does get a bit annoying. Now, using another filler or noticing this might help to be less redundant. Now.
  • Ashley_shlee
    Love!
    I support all sword and scale content!
  • Nreekay Skoaldiak
    Just can’t help himself.
    Listening to MAGAs cry about California is tiresome.
  • Dobs68
    Love this show
    Ryan is right. People today are much crazier than ever. I love this show!!!
  • poshwithdar
    Love a quick daily show!
    So glad it’s back and let’s get it on the S&S app! But if not I’ll listen here!
  • Ntroy82
    Fan of S&S
    I have been a fan of Sword and Scale since almost the beginning of the show. I remember when Daily first came out and enjoyed it then. That being said, way too many commercials. I get the need to make money, that’s why I pay for plus, but a commercial between each short segment is a bit much.
  • kenzie sage
    Here for the free trial!!
    I pay 20$ a month for s&s plus. It’s so WORTH IT. Please put s&s daily on the app!! please don’t make me pay 10$ extra to stupid apple podcast.
  • Amsterbell
    More SAS, Yes Please
    I love it, bring it!
  • HandmadeinLA
    Unlistenable…for now?
    I want to preface this by stating that I consume podcasts pretty much morning to night- I listen to a TON of podcasts and I am not one of those people that complain about normal ads at all. Ever. But this? What in the actual? This podcast is very short and it is CONSTANTLY interrupted by absolutely annoying and repetitive ads. Like the same ad every time and every 2 minutes. Absolutely stop that nonsense and I’ll update my review. Also I have the paid version so why am I hearing ads at all? It literally says (ad free) at the top of the podcast and “paid subscription”.
