- Best of True Crime-grass roots, well researched, down to earth narration
This is truly one of the best true crime podcasts out there. Not about all the hype, not just trying to squeeze every penny out of his production.

United States2 months ago - One of the best ethical true crime podcasts
Unresolved is one of the earliest indie true crime podcasts and remains one of the best. It’s also so underrated for the contributions it’s made to raising awareness of now-high-profile crimes that were not well known when Whelan covered them—particularly LISK. Whelan is and has always been victim focused and ethical and he deserves a lot of credit for continually pushing true crime media to be better.

Podcast Addict53 months agolwood2425- Epstein Files
I applaud you for covering the true crimes of Jeffrey Epstein & his co-conspirators, known & yet to be known. Your podcast is the only “crime” podcast of which I am aware that has covered the history of these horrific crimes. It is so much more than an “American Tragedy” - its reach is global.
Apple Podcasts5copperfielddUnited States3 months ago I love this podcast in general and the most recent episodes about epstein were especially good. I learned a lot I hadn't known before and the end of episode 7 gave me goosebumps
