Hayseed trash. That includes the cops. Can’t even put a decent sentence together. Holy moly.
I discovered this show quite accidentally while searching for podcasts about Israel Keyes.
I am so glad I did. They go beyond the major news networks and cover crimes and the stories behind them that don’t make headlines. These victims deserve their voices to be heard and their families sent prayers and our healing intentions.
This is the best true crime podcast out there right now, and it’s really not even close.
Responding to Iowa22. I am in no way an “AI”. I’ve been doing this for nearly ten years. My voice can be polarizing for sure. Some like it. Some dislike it. I use a Shure SM7B Microphone and spend a lot of time editing. If you’re going to dislike my narrative style do it for the right reasons. Don’t put that AI nonsense on me. I despise AI.
