  • Murder Sheet… Seriously????

    Murder Sheet literally drops your podcast so far down. The ONLY thing the Murder Sheet is known for is LIES. DO NOT EVEN BOTHER WITH IT.

  • Agreed—facts incorrect

    I agree with a review by a listener who commented on two big mistakes when hosts discussed the Adelson trial. Mispronunciation of FSU Law Professor Markel’s last name and stating he was a doctor. Where was the editing after recording?

  • So Many Facts Wrong!

    Shoot. I was so excited for this but not only do the hosts pronounce victim Danny Markel’s name wrong over and over (hello? Watch 2 seconds testimony and give the victim that level of respect), but they talk about what a great doctor he was? He was a law professor and attorney. This is so sloppy. Yikes

The Delphi Murders | "Shadow of the Bridge" with Áine Cain & Kevin Greenlee
Q: Now, Áine, you were saying you were so exhausted, but every night you had to type up your notes.
It was tough. We had people in our lives who understood our needs, so they weren't offended when we sort of disappeared for a month, though we missed our dog a lot during that time.
The Delphi Murders | "Shadow of the Bridge" with Áine Cain & Kevin Greenlee
Q: How did y'all then decide to approach and include the family story?
We knew the family story was absolutely crucial, but we also didn't want to intrude or exploit their memories. So we approached it very gently, emphasizing our intention to honor Abby and Libby as heroes.
Pathology with Dr. Priya | A Zone 7 Series: Listener Q&A
Q: Can you do an autopsy after someone has been embalmed?
