    Found it incredibly distasteful. Victims of sexual abuse have enough to worry about as it is when they come forward. Presenting the victim’s claims the way that Stacy did is why victims don’t report. Won’t be listening to anything else from her.

    I’m a fan of Stacy Lee on YouTube and enjoy her video versions of these stories. I dove into the podcast this year and am really enjoying it. Stacy Lee is a fun, enthusiastic, and, sometimes, exasperated story teller. She does in-depth research to bring as many sides to the story as she can find. She attempts to remain neutral and sometimes the mask slips but in a relatable way. Her humour despite the dark subject matter is welcome, sometimes you need some comic relief to stop you from crying in... more

    I’ve been a fan of Stacy Lee for over 5 years going back to her “Dining with Death” series. Her podcast and YouTube are both fantastic. Anytime a case comes through that we haven’t heard of yet, our friend group always says “let’s see what Stacy Lee has to say about it” because we know we’ll get a thoughtful breakdown that is fully researched. She clearly puts a ton of time and effort into the pre-work. Also, not many folks do separate episodes for YouTube and podcasts so you can have an experie... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Chilly Willy, Serial Killer
Q: What could be inferred about the psychological state of Dwayne Lee Harris based on his confessions?
He exhibits a disturbing lack of empathy and takes pride in his actions, regarding killing as a hobby. He expresses no remorse for his victims and seems to derive satisfaction from his crimes.
The Russian Woodpecker
Q: But why would anyone orchestrate such a disaster?
The theory suggests that it was to cover up the failure of the Duga Radar system, which had been a costly project.
