Rebecca and rachel legit make me laugh out loud. I’m a law student who loves all things true crime and i love how respectful they are to victims and stories while still having HILARIOUS banter. Thanks for the commute listen <3
The subjects are always really good and interesting but the joking around happens way to often and takes me out of the story , also mistakes left in the process turns me right off
All time favorite pod! I’ve listened to every single episode, some more than once. As someone who studied criminal justice and law just to become a stay at home mom it’s the perfect mix of true crime and just yapping with the girls!
I absolutely love your podcast and never miss an episode. Love your southern accents and the fun you have together. It feels like my friends are telling me a story. The dynamic between you both is fantastic and your storytelling skills are brilliant. Keep up the good work you two. 🇮🇪
This is the first and heretofore ONLY podcast I’ve ever listened to every single episode of. Rachel and Rebecca are great at storytelling, research, and they’re very respectful regarding victims and all those impacted by crimes they cover. They’re also very funny. Thanks for reminding me about whoa whoa whoa Miss Lippy.
