    PLEASE put time stamps guys. I love ya’ll, I’m here for the gabbing, but knowing when to skip to the stories is kinda necessary. Especially when I fall asleep to an episode (yes yall are my lullaby), and I just, say, wanna skip to Christine because I missed her ending. I am begging.

  • The fall off is real

    The show was good but then they started worrying about pronouns and all the current flavors to appeal to the vocal crowds instead of worrying about the actual history. History doesn’t care that people were “unalived” history killed people. They didn’t “SA” they raped. Stop being afraid of words because they will lose their meaning

  • Big topics approached well

    Em and Christine have, in my opinion, the best emotionally intelligent approach to the subjects they tackle and that’s why this is the only podcast I’ve followed consistently for years. Em enjoys the supernatural and believes in a lot of it but also brings a healthy dose of skepticism to their retelling. Christine tackles true crime with empathy and heart, feeling fully cognisant of the ethical murkiness of true crime as entertainment
