  • The best true crime podcast out there!

    I found this podcast through Mary Vincent’s story - I had tried to listen to another pod that covered the case and I hated how little empathy the host had for the victim, so I went searching for another pod that covered the case, and stumbled upon this! Wow am I so grateful! These ladies do a fantastic job researching and telling the story - always from the victims perspective when they can! They have some humour which keeps you engaged but it is always respectful and never mocking the victim or... more

  • 2nd ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review 🔥

    I love Every. Single. Episode! And I LOVE listening to you guys talk and discuss/banter (and Emily, you do NOT interrupt too much 🙄). You guys stay authentic & I love it, cursing and all!

  • This is a hard one, at the beginning I was a big fan of this podcast. The topics and cases were interesting. However, the hosts are beginning to absolute grate on me. The main host's lack of intelligence with vocabulary and pronunciation is shocking. They try and pass it as cute and quirky but it's just embarrassing. Her bias on some cases is disgusting. You will be screaming at the speaker the correct words she struggles to find. It's "by accident" not "on accident"

    The hosts come across as une... more

    I started listening after the crossover episode with True Crime Creepers and i absolutely love these ladies! The research is always very thorough and the banter is great! Very similar to True Crime Creepers and Morbid.

    Great job ladies!
