Very interesting stories and really like the host. She does a great job of story telling, Her voice is nice to listen to and the pace is great. Definitely recommend
Finally, a podcast that is willing to tackle confirmation bias. I hope future episodes will deal with systematic failures in a balanced & nuanced way. We don't hate cops, DA's, AG's or ME's but we need them to stop assuming (or creating) untrue narratives about crime victims. Yes, it creates more work but given what tax payers are paying for these investigations, we have a right to demand & recieve 1st World Excellence for even the poor. Crime trickles up faster than wealth trickles down.
Narrator has a monotone stilted way of talking. The stories so far have both been very boring. I’ve unfollowed.
Madison is doing amazing work that most don’t want to deal with. I applaud her for being strong for her family and for the people’s frozen case files she is covering in this podcast. Please listen to this podcast!!!
Madison is an amazingly talented story teller who shared her own life experiences with the world through Ice Cold Case (listen if you haven’t). I am so excited to listen to Frozen Files, any podcast created by her is 1000% worth spending your time listening to. She is absolutely brilliant!!!!!
