Love everything about this podcast! Well done!
Love the hosts, they’re both clearly so experienced and knowledgeable and empathetic! every story is so uniquely different, but still unites under the common theme. they pick some incredibly interesting stories that don’t get told often enough, I get so excited for new episodes!! thanks Hannah & Patia!
Absolutely love this new show! I was a huge fan of the opportunist, and I was devastated when Hannah was cut from that show. So far every episode of the knife, I’ve listened to has been compelling, and I cannot stop listening. Very excited to hear more of Hannah and Patia’s work. They’re an excellent duo and bring a different perspective on true crime.
I look forward every week to this podcast, love the crisp delivery, thoughtful, empathetic commentary and great stories. Highly recommend!
True crime told by two people who actually do the interviews & research. Thoughtfully told to deliver a story, but not sensationalize. I love it and listen every week.
