- Exceptional!
Paul is a gifted writer and narrator, I have thoroughly enjoyed Alibi. The work, effort, passion and creativity by the production team is clearly reflected in the final product. The stories are compelling, and importantly manage to strike a key balance in being both sensitive to the victims and hard-hitting, a balance not many hosts are able to capture.

Excellent, complex, detailed South African investigative crime show. In season 1, the reporters do not accept what the accused tells them at face value — they investigate it and, at times, they even catch him lying. But is he guilty of the crimes he was convicted of? In season 2, it’s a truly bizarre, maze-like trail into a high school teacher murdered by a hitman. Everyone who speaks to the reporter is scared for their lives.

So well done!!
Apple Podcasts5Eleanor EtherealUnited States5 years ago - Unnecessarily drawn out
So little actually happens in this podcast, but they have somehow managed to stretch it out over 8 episodes. Furthermore the parts where the host talks to the journalist sounds so awkwardly scripted and not conversational at all. I am very proud to see a half decent true crime podcast come out of South Africa, but needs some improvement.
