I enjoy the podcast, but it drives me crazy every time they mention Dr. Michael Baden. As they state, he is “one of the country’s most respected pathologists” so a quick search would show that his name is pronounced Bah-den, not Bay-den. I would think true crime podcasters would know this. I know they’re young, but Dr. Baden’s show Autopsy (the original forensics show) is still available to watch.
I really enjoy the podcast overall as y’all don’t do alot of banter and small talk. Yall get straight to the point but some things just irk me. The way Ricky pronounces certain words such as mountain and button. He says buddon and moundain. Almost like he can’t pronounce T’s or something. It’s like nails on a chalkboard and I cringe so much. Overall, it’s a great podcast I just wish he would say words the correct way.
Enjoy hearing stories but wow that’s a lot of ads
I was looking for a new true crime podcast and came upon this one. Their style of reporting is similar to my other faves- I love it. They are respectful and they get straight to the point.
Something is wrong with voice setting… sounds like Alvin and the Chipmunks after the beginning ads…. Sorry this seemed like the only “contact” method. Hopefully you get a chance to read it and fix it thanks!
