  • Disrespectful to victims

    The host isn’t believable as a scientist, she embodies the pompous and self-righteous attitude that’s a little unusual for a woman in science. Regarding the death of Kathleen Peterson, her “expert” she interviewed was a random man trying to profit off the case, not even a forensic scientist. It seems like a weird choice to be so unscientific on a science podcast.

    Seems like this podcast would have good content if I could keep listening through the first 5 minutes instead of getting second hand embarrassment. Overall weird vibes, but if you can withstand it Godspeed!

  • Disrespectful and tasteless

    The one and only episode I listened to was 92. The guy was so so disrespectful to the people who died. I could barely finish it because all I heard was him saying it was the victims faults. No remorse. It’s a very cheap version of Tooth and Claw.

  • This podcast makes me feel great!

    Hi Ashley and Nick! By the way, this may come up as Conor, but it’s actually Ben speaking. (Oh my Tilikum, I can’t believe I’m talking to you!)

    This is legitimately one of my favourite podcasts! I love American people! You two have really gotten me back into animals and nature. I’m an autistic guy who loves kaiju, dinosaurs and all creatures. And this podcast always gets me interested after a long day. You’re both hilarious!
