I just finished "Breakout" Episode 10, I think. That was the last one in the list... ummm... where is the rest of the story??? It has been great so far, but I never would have wasted my time listening to this, if I had known that it stopped before the conclusion. Seems like the story line could have easily been closed out in a single episode or two. If there wasn't going to be additional seasons, the main story line could have at least been concluded. I feel very frustrated...

This is truly a great Podcast and I've listened to the entire series 3x now. its extremely sad that there was never a 2nd or 3rd series to this. it really has incredible acting and a magnificent story arc. I wonder why they discontinued it. If anyone can recommend any other podcasts similar to this I would appreciate it. Once again a 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ highly recommended podcast!
