Since the episode aired, I’ve made efforts to get clarification and understand what I was seeing. This u... more

  • I’ve changed my mind

    A few days ago I wrote a not so flattering review but I’m coming back to change that bc after getting through S2 I can’t not respect the sheer amount of work that’s Anna has done (and the confidence she gains as she goes along is genuinely inspiring -at first she’s got a real monotone thing going that made me nuts but as things develop, esp in the back half of S2, she lets that go and just speaks, and what she’s speaking about will literally blow your mind) There are mayyyyybe 10 true crime podc... more

  • Heartbreaking & jaw dropping

    Anna’s meticulous attention to detail and passionate dedication to this horrific legacy of abuse is awe-inspiring and so admirable.

    Update: just wanted to add to my review to praise Anna’s incredible tenacity and talent not only at investigative journalism but at presenting such a deep, complex, and ongoing ... more
