I have enjoyed every season you put out. Thank you so much. Listening to season 7 and my. Heart just breaks for these families. Please help justice for them.
The latest episode had sound issues but they fixed it quick! This series is one of the best true crime and I love how it takes place in Florida!
The six seasons of this podcast are fantastic, but the most recent season is completely unable to be listened to. The audio is terrible. If someone could fix this, this would be a four-star podcast.
Audio on season 7 episode 1 really BAD
Most underrated podcast out there! I’m really looking forward to Season 6!
South Fla always provides the most insane cases in the world and I enjoy how many of the voices from the past are utilized here. A++++
I love the storytelling of this podcast. Wondered if the Podcaster has thought of doing the case of Florida mother Denise Amber Lee who was murdered in January 2008 after being abducted from her home. Thank you very much
How odd
I just started listening to these on my commute to and from work & the time just flies by.! Currently making my way through all the seasons can't wait to see what you have in store for next season!
I Really enjoy Justin Long and his sidekick brother Christian! Justin is witty, thoughtful and a sweetheart of a guy as well as a superb interviewer. The brotherly antics and the throwback music are most enjoyable and add to the overall charm.

The Florida Files has some of the best stories that I remember happening but didn’t know all the details. The narrator is great and the music is sooo good. Plus the interviews. And they constantly have new episodes! What’s next???
Sponsored by the Koch Brothers? I couldn’t delete this podcast fast enough. No way, no thanks.
I was born and raised in Florida, and it is a very weird part of the world. Combine that with Florida’s very open free press laws, which say police must provide news reporters with nearly all information known about a case makes it a hot bed for crazy, scandalous news.
I love this podcast because it is so professional in the way it addresses major cases which happened in Florida—not just the most attention-grabbing, but ones which have become local legends due to their complexity and their impa... more
This is a great series whether you are from Florida or not. The storytelling is wonderful and the host’s voice really makes this a pleasure to listen to, plus there are so many details!
This is a great series and really informative. I see you guys teasing the next season! Gimme!
