  • Why pay If I get ads

    I am paying for the subscription but I am still getting ads in some episodes, if there some special episodes that are not included in the subscription, then we need to be aware of them in the description of the episode, hate ads !

    edit: The Mary Day episode is cut short before the ending

    I'm a subscriber and wonder if I'm getting my money's worth these days. I guess I've heard all the good old ones and I've already heard the new ones from watching cable.

  • Too squelchy

    Overall, a well done series. However, the close in recording on crying is unnecessary. In a way it’s like a camera close up on a crying person. No need, exploitative in fact. Same for sounds of crying. Hearing it is not needed to know a person is crying. Also, some people wear headphones, so the sounds of squelch are louder still.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Inside the Sentencing of the GIlgo Beach Serial Killer
Q: Can you tell me, can you give me an idea of how unusual this is from a legal perspective? Why do you think he decides to take a plea?
The timing was surprising, but with such strong evidence and repeated pre-trial losses, pleading guilty saves time and resources for both sides and spares the defendant from detailing the gory specifics on a trial; it also allows the defense to frame the outcome as efficient closure for the families.
The Pretender
Q: What is left to learn from this man?
The biggest question of all is why he did this, and whether there was a deeper motive beyond the surface narrative he presented.
The Pretender
Q: Why did you want him to be innocent?
Simply put, on some level, he was such a nice guy, and that complexity made me feel conflicted about the outcome.
Post Mortem | Lindbergh
Q: Why did Hauptmann become the sole suspect so quickly, and was that justified?
Hauptmann carried ransom money and carried a suspicious badge of circumstantial evidence, including a ladder and specific notes, but the interview notes that the case relied heavily on controversial forensic and prosecutorial moves, casting doubt on whether he acted alone and whether the trial met fair standards by today's, and even 1930s, norms.
Post Mortem | Lindbergh
Q: What happened on March 1st, 1932, in Hopewell, New Jersey?
Hopewell saw the Lindbergh baby disappear from a nursery, prompting frantic police work, early ransom discussions, and a cascade of oddities that would shape the investigation and public reaction for years to come.
