I love Yeardley, Dan , Dave and Paul. This is the best true crime podcast. Yeardley is so great at hosting and asking the right questions to move the story along for listeners.
It takes forever to get going and the ladies’s voice is what nightmares are made of
Only problem with this show is not enough episodes for me to binge! It’s so well done, love Paul Holes on the show, great addition ❤️
If you like baby talk and a lot of pointless banter and cutesy-pie phrases, this is for you. “Howdy-do and happy Tuesday, my friends!”
Been having withdrawals waiting for season 18. My tried and true podcast while working. The content, the voices, the fact that I’m familiar with “small town USA” - all of it. Yeardley, Paul Holes, Dan & Dave are such a perfect pairing. Thank you (pls release more asap) :)
