What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Such a real and raw glimpse into a completely deprived epidemic. The episodes are highly transparent, which allows the listener to understand these predators and their harmful manipulation in depth. Chris Hansen is an amazing narrator and adds some much needed dark humor without downplaying the seriousness of the situations. So grateful for all he does. The depravity needs to be exposed and our children need to be protected. I’m a hooked listener and I’ll recommend the show to everyone.

Adjohns1987 · Dec 2024

Really enjoy listening to Chris’s podcast! Watching his show at a young age really helped me stay away from predators reaching out to me through social media. I think he’s doing a great thing and on top of that making amazing entertainment, these men are truly ridiculous and disgusting.

Jasmin.Brownie · Aug 2024

I have been a huge fan of TCAP since it first aired in 2004. Over the years I’ve looked into some of these people to see what ultimately happened to them. Now I don’t have to go searching as Chris is bringing it to us each week via this podcast. I recently was traveling and went back and binge listened to the whole show again while on the road. I like that Chris updated the intro with the newer intro. Much better than the creepy music that was there previously. Keep up the good work! P.S. No Ruber!

Michael Bushnell · Jun 2024

Amazing podcast that deep dives into each predator featured on To Catch a Predator, CrimeWatch Daily, and Takedown. You’ll learn way more than you ever wanted to know about these guys and get some good laughs at their ridiculous chat logs which can be read uncensored on this format.

SpongeVol93 · May 2024

I absolutely love Chris Hansen and watch his new episodes every week. However, the audio is really slow, and drawn out. Every 10th word or so, Hansen pauses oddly. Someone (ad execs?) got producers to slow down audio. It is too painful to listen to.
