Update.
The more I hear you on other podcasts the more convinced I am that you are either the biggest grifter on the planet or the stupidest person on the planet. No one could be as consistently wrong as you are and not be one or the other. Either way, it’s giving The Viper Pit Podcast great content. You should give it a listen. 😉
You are a disgusting couple profiting off murderers. Being on Bob Ruff’s show even lost him listeners and he’s trash too. Hilarious that his listeners hate you too. ... more
I’ve been listening over and over in between new episodes. This is great!
Content is great! Finding the new content is a chore though— if I’ve stopped listening for a few weeks, I have to dig thru every season to find the latest episodes to catch up (even if I’m sorted by “newest”). It’s not a simple *filter by unplayed and scroll down five episodes* like other podcasts. Please address this :)
Thank you for all your hard work to bring the stories to us. Bob Motta is simply the best! The Gacy series is second to none!
Omgggggg it’s going on 4 years waiting for season 2 to finish. Absolutely ridiculous. March 2026 will LITERALLY be 4 years. PLEASE - I AM BEGGING YOU TO FINISH IT.
