Too many ads vs the amount of content. I wouldn’t mind if the episodes were longer but 32 minute story with 4 ads is ridiculous
Well prepared and searched, but a bit lacking of emotion and tone of a story teller, no difference between the story and advertising.
I really tried to like this podcast but I can’t. The inflections of the hosts voice are jut too distracting. EVERY word before a comma or end of a sentence is raised in tone. Think annoying 90s valley girl. It was too distracting. Also the pace is so slow and the narrative very repetitive. Unfollowing.
In the highly competitive true crime genre, this podcast is weak at best. Facts matter; a host should not be misleading the listener/reader by jumping to conclusions.

Except that the murders happened in 1981, so we’re somehow al... more
Did you just say the murderer John Getreu had no life skills so he was stuck being a carpenter !!! What ? lol My husband is a highly skilled carpenter who is very sought after and makes a very good living . That’s very insulting to skilled tradesmen ! Also you said Arlis Perry was born in 1994!! I like the show but you really need to have an editor help you or at least relisten !
I listened to the latest couple of episodes and I liked them, I decided to start from the beginning and it’s hard t... more
