  • Very enjoyable!

    Meticulously researched and doggedly pursued, this story is engrossing and well-told. Nonetheless, I feel the opening episodes were an unintentional misdirect that led me to believe the entire series would be spent covering the Motown murderer. I didn’t mind when new characters and storylines were revealed, but it was occasionally confusing.

  • Incredible

    This is an amazing piece of long-form journalism with high production value. The story is true crime, but it’s also about some really interesting people, as well as the first amendment. Great podcast music and very well edited. Highly recommended.

    I personally found the episodes about “Rex feral” some of the most interesting and I hope it comes out someday who she was. And u... more
