Our curated selection of reviews
The content of this podcast (and I’ve listened to all the seasons) is consistently excellent, and the host does a wonderful job with interviews.
However, like so many podcasts, the production goes WAY overboard with background music. This is extremely distracting for those of us with hearing and other disabilities that can make processing audible content challenging. Making podcasts accessible, especially those that address important social justice issues, seems fairly fundamental. I understand this may be an oversight - and it’s easy enough to address in future. Thanks.

I think my last review was just begging for this podcast to come back and thankfully, they’re back and better than ever.
I’ve been a podcast junkie since before anyone one knew what a podcast was. I listen to a lot of sociopolitical pods and tons of true crime stuff. That being said, I like to think of myself as fairly discerning and this is honestly one of the BEST podcasts I’ve ever listened to. In-depth, thoughtful, sensitive, thorough and great production-this pod hits all the marks. I still haven’t finished with season 3 but I’ve already learned so much and I am just so blown away by the work of these Sun Sentinel investigative reporters. If they’re any indication of the quality journos that work there, then the citizens of Broward County should be so thankful to have the SS as their primary news source.
Thank you so much for covering a horrific topic in such an informative, sensitive, thoughtful, and comprehensive way.

I live in Fort Lauderdale so I started listening to the podcast to hear more criminal activity happening in South Florida.
I’m just blown away with season 3, I’m visualizing where these girls were because I know the city so well. I am just so saddened by these young girls stories. It’s really nice to hear this podcast keeping their stories alive. I’m praying more is done to protect young women from these monsters 🥺
Great reporting done here by really passionate people.

As someone who has worked with trafficking victims in Florida, I’m constantly blown away by the misconceptions and conspiracy theories surrounding trafficking, especially with minors. Kids who are trafficked are not stolen off the street and kidnapped, they are coerced and groomed by predators. Parents spend more time worrying about their kids being stolen from a public bathroom than they do worrying about who they are talking to online or spending time with. I recommend season three to everyone who needs more information about the complicated reality of sex trafficking. It is a tough listen, but it is an accurate depiction of how victims are targeted and exploited.
