  • There’s potential here if he changes a few things.

    This could be a decent podcast if Viborg-Thune didn’t get caught up in overly descriptive, flowery prose. It’s overwrought and much of it sounds like an amateurish attempt at being poetic. He used the word “flicker/flickering” in a Joel Rifkin episode 13 times in 30 minutes. He is also way too illustrative with details of rape. It’s completely unnecessary to talk about the size of Shawcross’ or Buono’s penis or elaborate on the levels of pain felt by the victims felt because of it. Descriptions ... more

  • Great job!

    I truly love listening to this podcast as it is well researched, keeps me interested and there is not alot of time wasted on personal banter not related to the topic. Love your accent as it’s different and a part of the whole vibe. Keep up the great work and thanks for the hard work for our listening pleasure!

  • Riveting, but with annoyances

    The host's diverting into extended multi-episode presentation(weeks’ gaps in between episodes, destroy the flow and continuity) and his ramping up of naked pleas for subscriber’s moneyis annoying. As are, for some, his accented delivery. It is the writing however, that refuses to let me leave. It is superlative, evocative and moving, far better than almost all in the genre.
