  • crocodile tears

    this true crime podcast is pretty good and very thorough; however, the host does this weird acting thing where she makes her voice crack when talking about incidents with the victims. it feels so disingenuous because literally no tears form in her eyes. it reminds me of the sociopaths in the criminal investigations she covers. Kimbyr, please consider not doing the phony empathy voice. We can tell you are an empathetic person, you don’t need to go hollywood over the top with it girl.

  • Cutting off the episode feels like a spoiler

    She is hands down the best at honoring the victims. The only thing I don’t like is how the episodes cut off without warning and we have to wait a couple days for the rest. This always leads to me to research it on my own
