Apple Podcasts5Angel Face 8United States2 years ago - Love this podcast!
I could listen to Tony and Al banter all day long. As a father and son duo, they are so entertaining and their love and respect for each other makes it even better. The content for the show is interesting and original and the way the stories are told is so creative. My only complaint is that these episodes aren’t frequent enough cause I literally can’t wait for more! Highly recommend Murder Phone.
Apple Podcasts5kever231456United States2 years ago - Background music
I just started listening. I’m on Season 1 ep 2. My only complaint now is the background music. It’s distracting and makes the show cheesy. I can’t hear the host reading letters because of the obnoxious background music. It’s just not needed. I give 2 stars now at season 1 episode 2. I also think at this early stage is listening that a lot of the correspondence with the prisoners is what the reader wants to hear. Therefore, the criminal is exaggerating.
