  • Riveting

    I am the definition of crestfallen when each season ends. As I listen while working or cleaning, I am in awe of your many talents and relieved that so many nefarious humans are paying their respective debts to society because of your bravery and dedication. Yardley’s talents for interviewing cannot be overlooked either. Magical mix. Thank you!

  • Great story telling

    I’d give it 5 stars if there was a consistent schedule. Really like the stories and cases but they go on break what seems quite a bit and will be gone for a while. So don’t get too invested or there will be disappointment.
