  • They don't tell complete stories of cases anymore. They only interview people promoting a new book or movie about cases

  • Maxim Furek you are fake…yikes!

    Your regurgitation of every bad book and movie on the demonic is a joke. OMG you dislike the Warrens yet everything out of your mouth is verbatim from all of their work. There IS NOT an exorcist at every parish. Any priest can come by and bless your home. That is vastly different than calling in an exorcist. One cannot just splash themselves with holy water and a crucifix and be protected. I get tired of “experts” who make mockery of my Catholic faith.

    I’m a paid subscriber to Crawlspace/Missing but continue to get endless ads. Have tried every conceivable way to communicate this but ads keep coming and are completely ruining content. Please please sort this out.

  • Frustrated

    I used to enjoy this show and I still do enjoy the new episodes but they very frequently post old episodes on both missing and crawlspace and don’t usually inform you if the episode is old so I find myself halfway through an episode realizing I already listened to this episode months ago. I get very annoyed that I wasted my time. I might stop listening to both shows because I don’t want to waste my time and feel a little like I’m being tricked into listening to an episode more than once maybe fo... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

668 // Serial Killer Rex Heuermann Sentenced to Die in Prison w/ Joshua Zeman
Q: How do these FBI sit-downs with the killer typically work, and what should investigators prepare for in those conversations?
Profilers explain that killers are often very aware of the investigators' knowledge, will test them with lies, and rely on subtle tells; the interrogation is a long, iterative process focused on family history and psychology before crimes.
668 // Serial Killer Rex Heuermann Sentenced to Die in Prison w/ Joshua Zeman
Q: Do you think his career in architecture assisted in him getting away with it as long as he did?
Yes, because he was a meticulous planner who treated his crimes like a construction project, using planning documents and a methodical approach to avoid detection.
665 // The Trial of Karmelo Anthony w/ Cody Thomas
Q: What was Cody Thomas's role in covering the trial?
He described himself as a CourtTV anchor and explained the dynamics of reporting from the courtroom, including the challenges of condensing hours of testimony into brief segments.
664 // The Suicide Salesman Hunter w/ Daemon Fairless
Q: What does this case reveal about online marketplaces and regulation?
Fairless argues that regulation alone cannot eliminate these sites due to their borderless and adaptive nature; instead, awareness, responsible reporting, and targeted enforcement are crucial.
664 // The Suicide Salesman Hunter w/ Daemon Fairless
Q: How do you handle the ethical complexities of discussing suicide?
The hosts and Fairless emphasize direct, factual discussion without sensationalism, including warning messages and interviews with people affected by these issues to provide context and prevention perspectives.
