Why does Mo always leave his audience hanging for months on end??

Death of a Name
On a recent flight from Chicago to SFO, I was seated across the isle two rows behind you thinking that I had to let my daughter - your biggest fan - know. I however, was discretely respecting your privacy. If I had known about your given name, I might not have resisted calling out “Maurice” in a soft voice of course!

This is one of my favorites! Love all the episodes

New stories
I hear you advertise your podcast on MSNBC almost daily but nothing new is appearing. Are you going to
Post new stories or are talking about the older podcast stories?

I enjoyed all of these episodes so very much, as well as your book, please, please give us more. We don’t want to see a Mobituary for this podcast!

Mo wisdom is the best wisdom!
10 stars! I’ve listened to some episodes more than once. My all time favorite podcast. So many interesting facts and guests presented in a way only Mo Rocco can.

Mo Shares Fascinating Factoids
Mo has accompanied us on more than one trip as we binge on this great podcast!
It makes the miles go by pleasantly as we learn about disappearing sitcom characters, Peggy Lee and more!
We highly recommend this podcast!
Repentant🤯
Yes! Mo is the best!
Anything Mo Rocco is just fiiiiiine by me!
Often imitated yet never duplicated! Mo's honest delivery has always been his forte. I just love the guy. I think most people either love him or hate him for the most part..
I tend to be the former!
REAL Happy I stumbled across this podcast!

Wish tho was every week

I wish Mo Rocca lived next door
I discovered the “Mobituaries” book first, then looked for the podcast. I have listened to the podcast every single day for more than three weeks now and have no intention of stopping until I hear every show. Good intelligent stuff, well-paced, and funny!

Names
Your names episode is HIGHlarious! Very informative. I had my daughter in 2020 and what I came to notice is many girls were named after flora. My daughter’s name is Juniper. I’m aware of a couple other Junipers, Iris, Ivy, Lily, Poppy, Violet, and even Clementine were all names I heard in 2020.
Love the show Maurice! Namaste.

Don’t care about ads
Especially like the episodes with John McWhorter
ricefred
Too many ads!
Good content made unlistenable by flow-breaking ads.

Top-heavy with Ads
While Rocca’s articles are often interesting, I just listened to the latest episode about Marlena Dietrich. 12 minutes of content, and 13 minutes of mind– numbing, concentration– jarring, ill-placed ads.
Thirteen minutes of ads and twelve minutes of content?
Seriously?

Too Many Ads Ruin the Flow
The new season of Mobituaries has way too many advertisements in it. Four minutes of adverts before Word One is spoken? And another four-minute hit later, along with a two-minutes later? Ten minutes of ads in a 30-minute show?
No other podcast I’ve listened to has this much time set for advertisements, and I’m listening to hour-plus-long shows.

Mo & Mo advertisements
Great stories interrupted by numerous drug salesmen

Marlene DitDietrich episode :-(
I usually love this podcast, but this episode is filled with sooooo many advertisements that kept interrupting the show. There was not enough content!! I could NOT enjoy the podcast. Terrible. Terrible terrible.

Too Many Ads!!
I love this podcast and Mo’s style/story-telling but the ad to content ratio is ridiculous!
postnut
Half of this show is ADS!!!
Moe. Come on. Your storytelling is amazing but THESE ADS!! You’re backed by CBS, so don’t tell us you need this much revenue for a podcast. I’m unsubscribing because I feel like I’m being sold every soda and pharmaceutical under the sun and the stories are just blips in the endless stream of advertisements. What a joke.

One of the Premier Podcasts
My third time listening to the Sammy Davis, Jr. episode tonight brought back wonderful memories of seeing his television performances and hearing his songs on the radio. What a brilliant man he was! Those were the days when performances on t.v. variety shows in the evening
would erase the stresses of the world and you went to bed feeling
happy. 🗣🎼

Advertising tobacco products
Very disappointed to hear three ads for Zyn on the Wishbone mobit. Mo you can be better and not promote an unregulated addictive tobacco product.
Love the Pod, hate these ads.

Mobituaries
I listened to this again because Wishbone was one of my very very favorite shows – and I was a grown adult watching it with my children!
As a teacher and a lover of literature, I found it to be one of the finest shows ever on television – I wish there were more like it today. It certainly could replace some of the trash that our children are subjected to— that beautiful little dog was an influencer that I can get behind still! Thank you for giving us his background.
No– Your podcast and your work is consistently excellent. I can’t wait for your new season.

Can’t Get Enough
“Maurice the Jew” provides the absolute best entertainment for our road trips back and forth between Missouri and Florida. Every episode is so interesting. Fantastic radio program.

Unique engaging podcast
Always love hearing what Mo comes up with. I’ve never been disappointed!

Neanderthal episode ❤️
Hi Mo…. WELCOME BACK 👋🏽 I’m sooo glad Mobituariaries is back! Can’t wait to hear more from this season. I never thought any of us would have DNA from the Neanderthal man. Very eye opening 😉

The BEST!
Mo Rocca. Great name. Great voice. Great personality. Perfect for podcasting. The idea is awesome!! The execution of the idea is fantastic!! The topics are so amazing, varied and unexpected. Thank you so much for coming up with this, creating it and continuing to produce this podcast even when I’m about certain the show has ended forever. Keep going. I love this podcast and miss it when there’s a break. Thank you Mo and everyone.

Have your ad-skipping finger ready
It’s generally a really good and entertaining show, but just have your ad-skipping finger ready. YMMV, because podcasters can use all sorts of services to send different ads to different people nowadays. By my count, nearly 29% of this download was advertising (and I’m not counting the host hawking his book at the end).
I counted 24 individual commercials in the download. Apparently, the bigwigs at iHeart and CBS think of podcasts like they think of TV shows… the more commercials the merrier.
Not only were there 24 commercials, but several of them were repeated more than twice (including the one for a female sex-enhancer drug, a large national hardware retailer, a social media company, a prostate cancer drug and one which was so poorly produced that I couldn’t figure out what it was for).
So enjoy the show, but don’t do so while washing dishes, or cleaning the cat’s box; you’ll want to have clean, dry fingers ready throughout the podcast, to skip through the ridiculous surfeit of annoying commercials.

A little history, a little pop culture, a great listen
Funny, nostalgic, smart, charming… I could go on. Mo brings his culture connoisseurship A game to this podcast. All great and a couple that are some of the best podcasts I’ve listened to. “Sitcom Deaths” and “Laura Branigan” are classics! ❤️!

Mo, we miss you.
Please come back and entertain America during this scary time.
