Burden of Guilt

by iHeartPodcasts | Glass Podcasts

For one mother, believing the truth cost her everything.    After a contentious divorce, Cindy was ready to begin again. To her surprise, she found a new partner, Kenny. Days after their engagement came a devastating allegation that Kenny abused her 9-year-old son.    To Cindy, the facts behind the accusation didn’t add up. She believed the claims had less to do with reality, and more to do with retribution by her ex-husband.    As the allegation tore her family apart, Cindy faced an impossible choice: stand by her child or stand by what she believed to be the truth.    Her decision led to years of frustrating court battles and a war over what really happened.    In the third season of Burden of Guilt, one family’s painful unraveling raises difficult questions about loyalty, manipulation, and what happens when the people you love no longer agree on what is true.   You can reach out to the Burden of Guilt team at Burdenofguiltpod@gmail.com.  For more Burden of Guilt, follow us on Instagram @glasspodcasts.  The first season of Burden of Guilt has been turned into a docuseries, now streaming only on Paramount+. Available to watch HERE! Make sure to binge all episodes of the podcast that inspired the show before you watch!

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I absolutely love this podcast, however story’s like Kenny & Cindy’s are absolutely terrifying! If they wouldn’t have had the money to defend themselves things could’ve ended very differently! Definitely a must listen.

It’s giving allegedly · Sep 2026

An AMAZING narrative that really challenged me to reexamine some of my beliefs. Love a happy ending!

Send happiness · Sep 2026

There are so many commercials in one episode it takes the amount of actual content down to about 20 minutes. The stories shared are compelling. I would recommend waiting until a season is complete and binge it. It won’t take long because half of the shows are ads you can fast forward. It makes listening easier to do it this way.

Jcifmrjfi · Aug 2026

Love the podcast! I had heard of it on a commercial and started listening! I’ve binged season 1 and season 2 in a couple of days now on season 3. I hate that there is only 3 seasons because I could listen to her podcasts forever. It’s so descriptive and in-depth. I’ve never loved a podcast cast this much.

THE TRUTH HURTS 365 · Aug 2026

Tracyraquel’s story drew me in, but Nancy Glass’ narration is such a distraction that I don’t think I can continue past episode 4. Her tone is so over-dramatic and sensational that it detracts from the authenticity of the story. What makes true crime podcasts so interesting and approachable is that the investigative journalist telling the story often comes across as a real person, not an old school TV reporter trying to land headlines. Glass comes across as self-indulgent, telling us right at the top that she interviewed Dahmer in prison and covered the OJ trial - neither of which are worth bragging about in my opinion - and every time she pronounces Paramount as “Paramont” I want to punch something. I’m giving up on the podcast and jumping to the doc on “Paramont.” I want to hear more of this story, just not from Nancy Glass.

Les2663 · Apr 2025

It’s very clear from episode 1 that the host has her mind made up and is siding with Tracy. Not to say that that’s not her right and the right choice but in looking for objective journalism, this wasn’t it.
