  • PHENOMENAL!

    I consider myself to be somewhat of a podcast snob. I believe I found Krissy on FB First. Her stories were compelling and I said what the heck let me add this to my roster. Kind of late to the party so I started with her back catalog. I’m finally all caught up and all I can say is this is an amazing show. Krissy, you are truly a talented storyteller and you bring so much humanity and compassion to each episode. I’ve laughed with you, cried with you, and cursed with you at some of the retellings ... more

  • So good!

    Residue is such a good podcast! I saw a TikTok post of hers and decided to follow her show on Apple podcasts and have in the last couple of weeks binged every single episode that I could get my hands on. Zero regrets!

  • Wish I could give it 100 stars!!! It’s sooo AMAZING!!

    Holy buckets this is my favorite podcast ever! If you like true crime, especially movies/shows based on true crimes, this podcast is for you! When Chrissy tells these stories I feel like she’s having a conversation with me. She had done such amazing research she knows these stories forwards and backwards and it makes her podcast flow so smoothly. I also want to point out I appreciate how much care and respect she gives the victims/survivors when she tells their stories. She remembers these are r... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

BONUS: The Widower with The Bravo Investigator
Q: In the trial, he's wearing headphones. What's that?
Chrissy initially guesses that the headphones might prevent Randolph from hearing testimony, then searches for an explanation and says courts may use them to ensure defendants hear and comprehend proceedings or receive a direct audio feed. The hosts remain unsure which explanation applied.
BONUS: The Widower with The Bravo Investigator
Q: As someone who's married, can you take out, what does that mean to take out multiple life insurance policies on someone? How can you do that?
Chrissy, who had worked in insurance, says she does not know how multiple policies could be obtained, noting that life insurance can involve medical tests, blood draws and screening questions. The hosts agree to investigate the policies further.
