  • Hard pass

    Yeah, this isn’t it for me. Poorly researched, LOUD ads (this is purportedly for bed time - adjust your sound settings?!), and disrespectful to victims.

    If you want a GOOD bed time true crime podcast that is well researched, has NO ads (seriously!) and is respectful and victim-centric, you need “Dead Sleep - True Crime for Bed Time.” Trust me, as soon as you hear Nancy’s soothing voice narrating her beautiful writing, you will never listen to this garbage again.

  • Good but…

    Good but some episodes miss the mark. Like the one entitled “eyes in the dark” included a phrase like “after you hear this you might never sleep soundly again”. Instantly made me feel uneasy!!

    I’m not a review type chick but “GIVE HER ALL HER TENS!” ngl it doesn’t make me sleepy but it is like Kelli Berens-Brink is that one cool friend who is wicked at podcasting true crime. Not too lengthy not too brief. GIVE. HER. ALL. HER. TENS. BEST POD THIS CENTURY. Just objective facts.
