- More Colleen!
I like the concept of this podcast: criminologist and sociologist unpacking horrific true crime cases. However, I am desperate to hear more from Colleen. I find Casey to be self-absorbed and condescending. She is often dismissive of what Colleen brings to the table and what she has to say…if she gets to say anything at all. I also think Colleen needs more airtime to run damage control. She needs to call out Casey every time she shares personal opinions that are full of harmful stereotypes and b... more

United Statesa month ago - Really Great
This is SUCH a great show. Such a breath of fresh air to listen to such smart women discuss true crime. No virtue signaling, no sensationalism, the ability to look into the psyche of the criminals without sympathizing with them - or being scared of not being tough enough on them - is such a nice change of pace.

Apple Podcasts5Daisy_99999United Statesa month ago - Good but….
Casey interrupts Colleen all the time and it drives me crazy! I want to hear from Colleen and her perspective however it feels like Casey never wants us to. I like hearing about cases that I don’t know, but there is minimal back and forth it just feels like there is only one host and not two. Please be aware of how you speak to others and how you sound on audio.

In depth, intelligent discussion between two highly experienced professionals. The world needs more of this.
Apple Podcasts5NyackBreeUnited States2 months ago - Can’t get past Jordan.
Narcissistic personality disorder on full display. Her cohost is lovely. Well produced show. I just can’t listen to the self grandiose nonsense of Jordan.
