  • I am obsessed with this podcast!

    Pretty picky when it comes to true crime podcast. I have like 10 on rotation and this is my go to lately. I like that it doesn't always end in someone dying, making it much different from the true crime podcast I listen to regularly. I wasn't sure how I felt about the voiceovers listening to the first episode but now I actually really enjoy it.
