  • I like it, but...

    Just heard the first two episodes & liked it right off the bat. Just a little disappointed that, also right off the bat, it's littered with unnecessary profanity. I can appreciate a well placed F bomb when merited, but gawd! I get tired of it just because they think it somehow makes them sound cool. It doesn't. It's just boring & they sound like the proverbial dorky kid, trying to fit in with the "cool kids." Call me a pearl clutching Karen if you want, but somebody's mammaw is probably tur... more

  • What a great show, take me to the Mountains!

    Heather and Dillon are such a great couple. They bring sagacity and sarcasm to these murders mostly in and around Appalachia. They study their stories well and aren't afraid to tell you what they think and how they feel. They are smart, listener responsive and entertaining to a great degree. I especially like Dillon's self-deprecating sense of humor. More please!

  • If murder talk could be a breath of fresh air…

    I’ve recently started streaming … I’m late to the punch, I’m still in 2019 but I had to drop in and tell you how much I am enjoying Mountain Murders! Just enough banter to make you feel like you’re just part of the conversation. I’ve listened to many true crime podcasts and I feel like Heather and Dylan do it a bit differently. I don’t feel like I’m just hearing the same stories yet again.

    I just heard the episode where you talked about a Karen troll and I LOVED Heather’s response😏Don’t let an... more

The Mysterious Death of Felicia Reeves
