  • Extremely well done

    This is the only fictional podcast I’ve ever been able to listen to. It’s so well done that I legitimately had to look up if the cases are real.

  • Bay Area nostalgia

    I was from the Bay Area and had not heard of the rest stop killer before. It honestly took me a bit to figure out this was fiction but I’m still a big fan. I love it. The zodiac appears frequently, which was enough for me!

  • A bright gem in a dark space

    I’ve been really enjoying this. It feels like a literary podcast with true crime and society in general as the main characters. “Chase” is the best.
