A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I stumbled upon the pod cast looking for a certain case and I have been hooked since. She goes into great detail of every case. I actually love her voice too! I will admit, I do cry when the children cases are talked about. Keep doing what you are doing! 🫶🏼

ANMCRAE · Sep 2026

I’ve enjoyed this podcast over the years but am starting to notice the attention given to the murderer is not warranted. For example, in the latest episode, the host goes into detail about his time in prison, his health issues and how he dies. I don’t really care to hear that nor give any more attention to a homicidal maniac. Simply saying “he died in prison” is enough information, in my opinion.

Cara -123 · Jul 2026

This is a great podcast all around but I’d like to ask Emily to reconsider the ad choice- having a firearms advertisement in nearly every recent episode seems in poor taste considering the content and especially in the US with our gun violence epidemic.

RicoLilah · Jun 2025

This podcast is bingeable and captivating (love the theme song), but it also ventures into feeling exploitative. I think it’s the “besties” goodbye at the end after we’ve just heard a really brutal murder and its effects. I love that attention is given to the victims and who they are. It doesn’t sensationalize the murderer.

BTM830 · Jun 2025

I’ve previously listened to this podcast since around Covid and thought the narrator was a great researcher and told stories emphatically.. but this latest episode was horrible. To clip in audio of the victim crying out for help and in pain served no purpose besides adding shock value. There was no benefit to doing this and no was to excuse it. It was extremely shocking when it came up because I couldn’t believe she would actually clip it in. Immediately lost a listener.
