- Long time listener/lover
I have been listening to crime junkie for years now. It’s my cool down, my me time. I am very picky on voices/ tones and I adore these ladies and how they present the information. I love how much variety in episodes there is. It went from me listening by myself in headphones when the kids were small to my kids being grown enough to get an episode in with me on car rides. Crime junkies been there through it all. Keep up the good work ladies!

I miss the days when news was just reported & not acted out. These young women to a disservice to the media & reporters. The vocal fry. The sing song tone of speaking. And worst of all THE LIKES inserted repeatedly unnecessarily. Unprofessional way of filling space. Just speak the words. The facts.
Im from Tucson & interested in the story. But had to turn it off.

Cases being “public knowledge,” does not mean that this information is to be USED to entertain the masses at the expense of the v... more
