  • My Zone 7

    Mac takes each case and shines the lights on the person/s involved and the challenges and rewards of each. She has knowledgeable professionals skilled at finding the needle in the haystack everyone misses. I leave each time filled with answers to questions I didn’t know I had. Her richly described images bring every scene to life almost like I’m walking along side looking for clues to the case. Never a dull podcast, ever. Great work, awesome person Mac is the best.
