  • I gave it an honest shot—1 year

    I tried, I really did, as historical crime is one of my favorite genres, but I just can’t stand the inane banter and giggling anymore. I appreciate insightful commentary and tangents in other pods but these two contribute nothing to the topic. We don’t need personal opinions after almost every sentence.

  • Vomit

    I don’t understand why all the commentary during story telling. I couldn’t get through it with the dumb jokes and even dumber laughter. TRASH!

  • If you like sawbones and true crime

    The set up of this show is JUST like sawbones. Where one person knows all the info and teaches their cohost everything they’ve learned.

    I love them together and their show! It’s super fun and different than most true crime because you haven’t heard of most of the cases rehashed.

    Definitely a listen if you haven’t yet.
