  • More speculation than substance

    It got harder and harder to listen to this podcast with each episode. There was so much wild speculation thrown around that I couldn’t take these people seriously. Yes, there’s cases where their person of interest seems VERY suspicious and certainly worthy of scrutiny, but when they started looking for hidden messages and fixating on victim names and trying to infer so much about what the suspect knew or did with little to no evidence I got annoyed. It felt either like trying to shoehorn pieces ... more

  • Most Thorough and Enjoyable Podcast

    I fell into this a few years after it started after my main pastime Crime Junkie featured a crime tied to the Snake River Killer. They mentioned this podcast but I was skeptical. I’ve tried a few other true crime podcasts but don’t enjoy the voice or storytelling. This is AMAZING! It’s like reading a captivating, nonfiction mystery novel. I love the details and even the reaching moments. I can’t imagine why there’s not enough to nail this guy.

  • Great show. Distracting music

    I really like this podcast! It’s well researched, engaging and well written. I solve puzzles more math and science based on my day to day life - I love and respect how the team thinks. Hearing how y’all approach the puzzle and the analysis of word play and language keeps bringing me back.

    That said, throughout the show this is in every episode for me, there are long explanations both from the host or others and the music in the background is super distracting. Either the track is too loud o... more

  • An Expert in Logic Academic

    I kept listening to this podcast through 4 or 5 episodes because it was hilariously bad. They are talking about a dude like he is definitely the guy who did it without explaining in all those episodes why they think he did it. He spirals down rabbit holes about the supposed killer without ever explaining to the audience why him. He may very well have done it but they have given me no more reason to suspect him than anyone else whose path crossed Christina. Also, he talks about how he is an a... more
