  • One of the best!

    Slater is second to none! Her investigative skills can’t be beat and her passion behind each case comes through. And the best part is that she’s REAL…her quirks, her mispronunciations, her love for her dog…we love an authentic Dark Queen!

  • “Killing it”

    Haha, get it? Anyway, I love what you’re doing, and I like true crime, because it gives you a better understanding of how horrible the human race can become and is.

  • Banger!

    I love listening to investigator Slater and Tank talk about true crime. I’m actually like Tank and never listen to true crime. But the little bit of levity Tank provides helps calm my anxiety when I hear the grisly stories. Terrific storytelling. Thank you so much!

  • Great host but sometimes AI scripts

    Host is really compelling and great to listen to but they quite obviously use AI to copy and paste from for scripts in chunks sometimes so it sounds a bit samey. Great otherwise
