  • One of the best podcast in its field

    Outstanding host and regular contributors. They are a great team of serious professionals who balance each other well. There is among them a shared determination to avoid biases.

  • A must listen

    I’m a British fan of the show and I find other podcasts sensationalist, over excitable and often too dramatic. I love the calm methodical approach Julia and her colleagues demonstrate. Bobs insight is spectacular

  • The Consult Podcast

    Having been immersed in the true crime genre since I was a kid, I don’t often find content that still satisfies my interest and expectations, but The Consult: Real FBI Profilers podcast does just that. I don’t think one could get much closer to the cases discussed without being an investigator themselves and, since it’s the psychological aspect of an offender’s motivations that I find most intriguing, this podcast has quickly become my preferred pastime. Highly recommend!
