  • Boring

    Two boring people entirely devoid of charisma and unclear what their qualifications are to be discussing the subjects they are. They are so unworldly it’s not even funny,

    I get you’re trying to be different/unique in your approach to crime podcasts, but it’s irritating to listen to and I’m not interested in your incessant chitter chat focusing on the victim/survivor waffle. Just give me the facts - not your opinions please. And please stop with the shout outs to your subscribers. You seem like likable people but crime is not your forte.

  • Well written

    Really love this podcast. I'm newish to listening and probably over doing it. Already joined Patreon! What I really love about this podcast is that although I don't agree with everything they say (side note-they don't always agree with each other) I really respect their right to share their perspectives and their honesty in doing so. I don't have to agree with everything to enjoy it.

    Also excellent editing!

  • Terribly Researched

    Just listen to the Jill Meagher episode. I know this case well but barely recognised it from their telling of the incident. Might as well have just said a woman was grabbed off the street, raped and murdered her. Then the police caught him.
