    Hi Joseph and Dave,

    I just wanted to send a quick note to tell you how much I enjoy Body Bags. I find the forensic side of these cases fascinating, and I really appreciate the way you explain what actually happens to the human body and how forensic evidence can help tell the story of what occurred.

    The two of you also have a great dynamic, which makes even the heavier subject matter interesting and easy to follow.

    Just wanted you to know you have a regular listener here in Delaware. Keep up t... more

    Enjoy your pod and can get past the repetitiveness and small talk with your sidekick. However, YOU bring the politics in boys, with this one, putting MLK’s name in a pod with that disgustingly racist kirk. Not sure what you are thinking with that as it’s so repulsive.

  • Missing a basic overview of each case

    It would be nice if the podcast started with a short, organized and uninterrupted summary of the case. Feels a bit rambling, unfocused and anecdotal. None of those things are entirely unwelcome, but some focus and structure would be an improvement IMO.
