Acerca de esta escucha

The Opportunist tells true stories of regular people who turn sinister by embracing opportunity. How does an everyday person turn into a thief, a scammer or a cult leader? Perhaps the most dangerous person is the one who appears the most normal. Perhaps there is a dark potential lurking inside all of us that is just waiting for the right opportunity to emerge. The Opportunist is an original podcast hosted by Sarah James McLaughlin.© Copyright © 2002-2025 PodcastOne.com. All rights reserved. Crímenes Reales

Very well researched, well told, and very interesting topics. Please do a podcast about Jen Shah, the real housewife of Salt Lake.

I love this podcast!

In reference to the latest season... HOW can people be so "supple"? How (no offense to the host) can this even be a story? The most frightening thing is that people are such idiots. It helps me understand the last couple of elections, but these situations are JUST BEYOND ME. All I can say is, "Bless y'all's hearts".

But REALLY!!!?

This is a great podcast. I think the stories are well chosen, and that the episodes are well written and planned out. The host is NOT annoying. I know that sounds weird but in a lot of these podcasts I feel like the narrator inserts too much personality. That’s not the case here. It’s all about the story. There is a lot of original audio, lots of interviews, and lots of original content. I’ve listened to three of the single episodes and now this series about the Rehab Mogul. It’s OUTRAGEOUS that people get away with some of this stuff. I like that it’s also not condemning people. It’s just a story and a presentation of facts. It’s also well edited and sounds like it has a professional score. WELL DONE!!! quickly becoming a favorite in my rotation!!!!!!!!!

While I enjoyed the story but the ads increased with every episode. This podcast was recommended by a YouTuber I watch and I did enjoy the series.

Ads, so many ads... but I finished it.

I stumbled across this podcast and became instantly drawn in. The host takes a unique perspective that kind of mixing things up from the usual true crime story. I was also impressed with the way the host was able to be thorough and yet still keep your full attention. Looking forward to more content!
