    I truly love both of you ladies thank you for creating a space where I can recenter myself. Not everyone can afford a therapist and this weirdly does wonders to help me have the me time needed to function. One request if I may… please keep the political comments off the pod it makes me cringe so bad I shut it off. We are all allowed to have our own opinions but can we all just enjoy some

    Peace and quiet without politics whether you are left or right we know one thing… we all love this show let’s... more

  • No moralizing

    Day one listener, I’ll continue to listen, but I don’t love the way the show has evolved, or devolved as Karen and Georgia have recently commented.

    The constant commercial tie-ins plus the pivot to video are not positives. I love watching a clip of some podcasts, but completely disinterested in watching the entire podcast. If people like that - that’s great. I don’t have a sense of moral superiority. I don’t think I’m better than anyone. I just don’t like the tone that Karen and Georgia take... more

  • Bye

    I really wanted to like this podcast because the true crime stories themselves were interesting and I enjoyed the banter. However, I ended up stopping because of the repeated political commentary woven into the episodes. It often felt unnecessary and came across as dismissive toward anyone with differing views. I listen to true crime for the storytelling, not to feel judged or talked down to. It just wasn’t the right fit for me.

  • George Takei, rhymes with gay, not tie

    If you know anything about George, he doesn’t understand why he should have to continually remind people how to properly pronounce his surname. It’s like when people mispronounce Vice President Harris’ First name. It’s just a matter of respect. He’s earned it. The internment camps he suffered through as a child are horrific. Also, I love absolutely everything about this show! You’ve made an impact on millions!! SSDGM ♥️
