Well researched and presented. Pickton murders are a must listen.
I have been a long time listener and look forward to every new episode.
I thought you did a great job with the Hockey Canada episodes. It’s okay to let your opinions show through (most podcasters do) you’re human and entitled to your point of view.
Thanks for being so sensitive to all the victims and their families!
I first listened to Canadian True Crime a number of years ago and I enjoy listening to the way Kristi presents the crimes and how thorough she is in her research. I love listening to Canadian True Crime!
You sound like a robot and you need to speak in a normal speaking pace. The Picton murders is hard to listen to as it is all over the place and delivered with such monotony and out of sequence. really poorly done.
Could have been great but unfortunately there are no interviews so it’s just someone reading a middle school essay about a serial killer. It’s going AI generated script. Didn’t make it beyond the first episode.
