  • Delia is Amazing and Counter Clockwork is the best

    Delia is simply amazing the time and effort she puts into the podcast and a research is second to know. Her old school boots on the ground research in the field reporting some of the best. I already listened to counter clock season eight on my crime junkies subscription, the thing she’s found out about the lane Bryant murder to blow your mind

  • TOO MANY EPISODES

    Just finished season 3 and while the story was complex and interesting breaking it up over 20 episodes was absurd and made a complicated story harder to follow.

  • 5 minutes of commercials to start

    Decent enough podcast too many commercials and they are long. A 37 min episode had 5 full minutes of commercials before it even began. Not worth all the commercials.
