  • Camp Swamp Road Open Questions

    Great camp swamp road series. One thing that wasn’t addressed is how did Scott’s body get back in the truck if Boyd and Williams said that Scott got out of his truck and pointed his handgun which caused the Boyd and Williams to fire. Did they do any bullet trajectory tests? It would be helpful to determine where Scott was actually shot

  • Consistently excellent

    It must be hard coming up with a new topic every day, but they do an excellent job presenting consistently interesting content in as unbiased and apolitical a manner as possible. If you are looking for a particular political bent, this is probably not the podcast for you.

  • Expected better from WSJ

    Hosts are unprofessional, biased. Really wanted to love this, but need a more neutral viewpoint.

  • Camp Swamp Road

    The premise of the podcast itself is interesting and I would love to be able to listen to the story but unfortunately I just can’t. The hosts put on southern accent is just horrendous. As a southerner we can tell when someone is faking or playing up their accent and she definitely is. At points she even forgets to put it on for a few minutes. I wish she did the whole podcast in her normal tone. We get this happened in South Carolina, you don’t have to play Reba to tell us the story.

  • Sunlight for Scott Spivey

    Thank you to the WSJ team for taking on this story and shining some much-needed light on the corruption and injustice experienced by Scott Spivey and his family. Hoping this brings more accountability for those in SC who still have the power to make this right. It is clear who the victim was in this case, and it was not the shooters.
