One of my faves!
Very informative and respectful podcast. The storytelling is very intriguing. Definitely one of my favorites out there.
The delivery got better, more confident for a bit, but now, I get the feeling she’s trying to audition asKeith Morrison’s more melodramatic replacement on Dateline. Every victim lights up a room, is a perfect parent, devoted child, besotted spouse, they helped everyone, etc. When she’s talking about the crime the dramatic tone of voice is just a little too much.
This show was better before Audiochuck got involved. I’m unfollowing all of their shows after what happened to AOM
This podcaster does a phenomenal job of respecting the victims and their families as she tells their stories with integrity and kindness. I just listened to a podcast about Lizzie whose life was taken by a greedy, self-serving man and his girlfriend. It broke my heart, but. It’s a story that needs to be hurt. I’m listening from Washington State and I am certain that Chuck would approve. 🐾
