  • Love This Podcast

    I heard about this podcast on Girls Gotta Eat and so glad I did. This is very informative when it comes to various hostage situations. The hosts discuss various cases, victim’s psychological evolution as a hostage, and much more. They review the best practices of hostage negotiations and how negotiations have gone drastically wrong.

  • Great podcast.

    Great podcast. Not surprising from Parcast and Carson Roy. Now I suppose I’ll have to get Spotify to continue listening. To the reviewer who states SURELY her name isn’t pronounced Co-leen....do some research her name is in fact CO-Leen. That’s the case that started my love of true crime at 8

  • Spotify is the worst

    I really liked this show, but I don’t like anything enough to use Spotify. It’s such an annoying app. I hope you move back to Apple Podcasts, but “oh well” if you don’t. 🤷🏼‍♀️

  • I’m NOT going to use Spotify

    It’s ridiculous that I have to download a separate app, create a Spotify account and go through all of that hassle just so I can listen to this show. I shouldn’t need multiple platforms just to hear podcasts. These guys do great work and it’s really a shame how many listeners they are missing out on by having certain shows exclusively on Spotify. more

    Hate I have to use multiple platforms to listen to parcast. Ridiculous and not worth my time even though I love all parcast shoes.
