  • Music and sound issues

    Great podcast, but I had to skip an interesting episode because of the vibrations and loud bass constantly going on. Less music would be so much better.

  • One Last Phone Call

    Becky and Larry are right where they belong. I don’t believe 1 word of Becky’s denial. She thought her and Larry Snr would be able to have a big windfall of cash. There’s no doubt in my mind that she is guilty of planning this, and her boyfriend carried it out. It made me feel nauseous the way she is trying to portray herself as a victim.

    RIP Robbie. Take care Nathan and Rob’s beloved daughter.

    The only thing I will say bad was that I had to translate for an English only speaker while listening to the Spanish speaking parts.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The After Show: The Secret in the Water
Q: What changed when Steve Gates provided new information?
His immunity-backed testimony offered a version of events that aligned with the police investigation and connected Regina's disappearance to the arson and murder, enabling prosecutors to pivot the case and secure a conviction years later.
The After Show: The Secret in the Water
Q: What made this case so persistent in the public imagination?
The combination of a long-unsolved disappearance, the seemingly ordinary life of Regina Hicks juxtaposed with a troubling alibi and timing, and later dramatic court revelations kept the story alive for decades in public memory.
The After Show: Betrayal: Secrets and Lies
Q: Why do you think Betrayal resonates with large audiences and listeners?
Andrea suggests it taps into real fears and curiosity about how someone you love could turn into a stranger, while the resilience of survivors keeps audiences engaged and hopeful.
True Crime Vault: House of Cards
Q: How did investigators determine a likely suspect given limited physical evidence?
They pursued alibis, examined past relationships, and followed documentary leads like letters, diaries, and a complex web of people connected to the victims, while corroborating with phone and financial records.
Bridge of Lies: A Bonus Conversation with Brad Mielke
Q: What draws you to true crime stories as a journalist?
Juju discusses using true crime to explore larger social issues like mass incarceration, consent, and redemption, and highlights the emotional impact of investigators' dedication.
