  • Compelling Story, Great Writing

    I was at the edge of my seat wondering if justice would be served in episode 3. Kathy did an excellent job of bringing us into the story and keeping us focused on the evidence and ethics of accusing the wrong man. Can’t wait to see what happens next.

  • AI overload

    The clearly AI written story is inferior to the original seasons by far. It’s boring it drags on and he’s reading with little engagement or interaction with the story itself.

  • Awful acting

    Might be a great podcast but the actors overly dramatic readings are so bad that I stopped listening. It’s too bad because the main narrator does a great job.

  • Yikes

    Big fan of Gen Why and Aaron, but this is not a balanced take on the Temu case. Really disappointing.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bonus Episode 1 with Julia Cowley from The Consult
Q: What stands out about the suspect Temujin Kensou in relation to the case?
Temujin Kensou presents a complex profile with a history of manipulation and aliases; while he seems like a plausible suspect given various threads, the evidence often does not line up neatly, highlighting the risk of tunnel vision in investigations.
Bonus Episode 1 with Julia Cowley from The Consult
Q: How do you view eyewitness accounts in this case and in general?
Eyewitness accounts are highly fallible; descriptions vary widely and memory can be contaminated, especially when hypnosis is involved. They should be weighed carefully and corroborated with physical and forensic evidence rather than taking them at face value.
Bonus Episode 1 with Julia Cowley from The Consult
Q: Could you talk a bit about how your education and experience aided you in analyzing cases on your show?
My background in chemistry and my long tenure with the FBI and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation gave me a foundation in how investigations unfold, how evidence is processed, and what proper procedure looks like, which helps me evaluate cases with caution and objectivity.
