- Love the show
Good Grief!This episode was annoying. It was like listening to a middle school story. I’m blatantly used, lied to, but hey I’m in love and I’m sure after the 200th lie I’m sure they are ready to tell the truth now. The whole thing is embarrassing

Excellent..just a textbook picture of a sociopath…it’s about time moms stepped up to protect their children ..no matter how old. I lost my son to a covert narc, it is beyond heartbreaking. But I think it’s clear that the BF has a clear pattern, take the woman for every dollar she has, have a baby and then discard her. So you can hope for a discard and a grandchild. I would try to get a fraud expert to track her money…you are doing a great job and I’m so sorry..

I love y’all, but Hannah please stop interrupting Mackenzie when she’s trying to tell her stories. I think some input is needed but she can’t seem to get a word in. 💕 Hannah please be quiet!!

This podcast has become one of my favourite listens. I’m slowly working my way through the back catalogue, every episode is great. This is the perfect podcast for when us girlies need a break from the true crime pods.

Insufferable mother. The guy in the story was probably a bad dude. But when ask to leave someone’s house, you leave. I lost respect for the mother when she refused to leave his property.
