A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.
I’m always happy to have a 2020 to listen to and most of them pass through one year and go out the other. That’s what happens when you listen to too much true crime. Many of the cases are repetitive but the series on Karen Silkwood that I just finished today was fabulous. Thank you folks for touching on a case from my past that’s always been of interest to me and you did such a great job! Five stars two thumbs up and consider me a follower for life.

Hmmm…I am really confused by the ridiculous negative and petty comments by other listeners.
The sound?
I found it perfect for the background of the story.
The narrator? Great narration. The voices are articulate and NOT grating and annoying like some podcasts can be !
The true stories/investigation?
Thorough. Poignant. Interesting and informative.
And I have ADHD and need stories to be precise , compartmentalized, easy for mental digesting. And this podcast and their stories do just that.
Having music in the background is like showing the ambience not telling. In other words, flowery music on a criminal story won’t cut it.
Keep up this great podcast 20/20.
You obviously know what you’re doing because you’ve been serving our community with the best journalism for years. 👌🏻😊👏🏻

Enjoy listening to this podcast all the time. But the last episode on the Crumbly parents - you just hear text tones being sent/received but have no idea what they say! At least have the decency to add some audio reading aloud what they say. Other episodes have has missing pieces because in the tv episode they are showing a picture or something that isn't audio. But the texts where such a huge part of the case and gave context. Otherwise great listening for long drives.

The content is good, but needs more consideration for turning the TV episodes into podcasts. A lot of audio is difficult to hear (interrogation interviews and hidden microphones), and on TV there would be subtitles. For the podcast, please summarize or explain what is said. Some episodes are very hard to follow.
Jaymay0620 · Jul 2024
I love a good true crime story, but you can’t just take a tv episode, play the audio and call it a podcast. The length of transitional music in these stories may add to the drama when paired with all the visuals on tv but for audio it is PAINFUL. For a powerhouse brand like 20/20, many of these episodes feel sloppy. It feels like some simple edits could clean up the transitions and make it much more enjoyable to listen to.
mejwilliams · Oct 2024
Does anyone bother to listen to these shows before they are turned into a Podcast? In “Sins of the Parents”, there were multiple instances of text messaging, that obviously while watching the show you can read, but when listening all that is heard are multiple “swooshes”. Someone needs to read out loud what the texts are!!! Very important dialogue is missing, that made the show unlistenable. Don’t waste your time on this one!
