American Homicide - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Never been hooked to a podcast so quickly. Listened to the first two and then immediately signed up for True Crime+ so I could listen to the 3rd. This podcast is so well made, and isn’t just another true crime show, but exhibits real reverence and respect for the victims. Hats off to the producers and editors who made this one.

I used to watch Sloane on Newsnation and always enjoyed her work. I listen to a lot of true crime and was feeling burnt out from my other shows. WOW I am glad I found American Homicide. The interviews are great. The episodes fly by. I’ve never heard these stories before.

The respect to people who have been victimized and their families is what makes this podcast a standout. The delivery is professional and well researched.

With so many podcasts now it’s a crapshoot with some of them but Sloane has nailed it. It’s read and written well and she doesn’t ramble or give her own opinions. I can’t wait to hear more.

This could have been an interesting show if it wasn’t for the fact that at least HALF of the show is the loudest, most jarring ads you’ve ever heard. Every five minutes, it seems, the show is interrupted by five minutes of ads. Really feels like the producers did the minimal job and are trying to wrap a thin story in as many ads as they can pack in. Really disappointing.

Some of the stories are interesting, if a bit too drawn out for the two part episodes. However, Sloane’s narration makes it nearly unlistenable. She can’t pronounce the letter T and every word it’s a D instead. “Wridden”, “rodden”, “ledder”, “buddon”. If you’re going to make your living with your voice and words, you need to be able to pronounce them. Please fix this!!!
