  • Good stuff ruined by appalling editing

    The narrator is excellent. The stories are well written and interesting and thought-provoking. All of this is completely ruined by the worst editing I have ever heard. Intrusive ads appear not only mid sentence, sometimes it's even mid word. It completely ruins the podcast. If they could fix it I would give them five stars for the quality but I can't. Such a shame.

  • Good content but very little is original

    While I have not listened to the most recent episodes, my impression from the beginning of the podcast is that 95% of the content is "copy & paste". If I want to listen to "48 Hours" or "Dateline", I will go there. This podcast would be 1,000 times better if the creator presented the case instead of using other people's work. In addition, I expected content on serial killers & not just on true crime. This just seems like a passing fancy instead of a real project.
