Would be very interested on The Consult’s profile of the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping!! Jim Clemente gave a profile, would love to know how Julia & co weigh in about behaviors, etc.
I absolutely love this podcast because it’s obvious that the hosts do their own research and do not report things that are “speculation” as facts. Their analysis is always very interesting and informative and well presented. Not just warmed up facts repeated over and over like most crime podcasts.
❤️
I think it's educational and you get to explore how criminal profiling works.
Some feedback: Please ask Jim C to review his tone in the podcast. It feels like yelling and is difficult when it goes on the majority of the podcast. This tone can have a negative impact on audience (it does for me, I've turned two episodes off).
