    I love true crime and I love the PNW. I’ve had to stop listening because of the unnecessary political commentary and insensitive joking when talking about someone who was murdered. Please stick to the story.

  • As a family member of one of the subjects in their podcasts, I can tell you that a lot of it is pure bullshit, inaccurate and biased. Fucking amazing that they never contacted anyone associated with the murder yet act like they know what happened, what and why actions were taken. The author's inane and giddy comments are unprofessional and insulting. Their stuff is trash.
