    Used to love this podcast and was looking forward to the Madeline Soto episodes. Unfortunately there is a lot of erroneous information. Seems like the research isn’t what it used to be.

    Leave out a lot of the Police Interviews. Rob and Amanda great together but the interview tapes are too long and not very clear.

    I would rate this podcast with 5 stars if Robert would stop rudely interrupting and talking over Amanda. I would love her to finish her thought and opinions for once.

  • Too long to wait

    Why so long between episodes.. especially when it’s a continuation of a story. Very frustrating to constantly have to check if the next episode is out.
