Not a fan of Willy. Would be a lot better without him 🤷🏽♀️
I love this podcast!
This is the worst podcast. Too many analogies. I knew from the beginning you were a mean girl. Your audio is trash too. Maybe invest in a nice MIC and take your time speaking. Same stories that have already been covered. Recycled trash. Not well thought out or written. It sounds like you’re recording in your hallway. Give it up. It sucks. Do better and be respectful.
Definitely a corn ball. Definitely giving bully. Even when you mentioned it in one off your podcast episode I knew who you were talking about. Lost me as a supporter
One of my favorite true crime podcasts! I absolutely love the way she tells each story. She’s thorough, gives so many details, and presents the cases in a way that keeps you interested from beginning to end. I also love supporting a Black woman in the true crime space who is doing an amazing job at what she does. Keep pushing and keep telling these stories! Your work is appreciated, and I’m always looking forward to the next episode! 🖤
