Ever watch a true crime documentary and realize you’ve spotted the red flag long before the investigators did? Welcome to the inner circle.
We’re just ladies of a certain age solving murders from our couches, and we’ve seen enough to know that the truth is always stranger than fiction. Hosted by writer, Amye Archer and friends, we talk about som of the most compelling true crime docuseries and cold cases out there. We bring decades of "seen-it-all" intuition and a sharp, skeptical eye to every piece of evidence, dissecting the clues that others miss.
We don’t need a badge to know when someone is lying; we have life experience, a remote, and the collective wisdom of thousands of hours of true crime research.
If you’re the type of person who stays up until 2:00 AM researching court transcripts and calling out the "obvious" suspect from your living room, you’ve found your people.
Grab your coffee, get comfortable on the couch, and let’s get to the truth together.
Episode drop on Wednesdays.

I was a big true crime consumer but (as with most things) I overdid it and had to take a step back. This has been a wonderful step back into that world! Amye and her guests give a respectful and at times funny recount of documentaries and series that I look forward to every week!

This has quickly become my favorite podcast. I love Amye & all of her cohosts. Anything she covers with Becca is sure to be a banger. I can’t pick between Tiger King & the Murdaugh coverage as my favorite because they were both so good! It truly feels like I’m hanging out with friends when I listen.

I love Amye and her voice and everyone else’s voice who joins as co-hosts. I love the humor intertwined with the coverage. I love the tangents-I love it so much I wish the episodes were even longer. Keep doing great work ❤️❤️ you are appreciated

Amye and all her cohosts bring warm and entertaining analysis of true crime documentaries- with respect for the victims. And together we solve these crimes! Love it (in my best Bob Durst voice)!

Ireally wanted to like this podcast, but unfortunately, I just couldn’t get into it.
Over the course of the one episode I listened to, there were numerous mispronounced names, several factual inaccuracies, and important information that was left out. For anyone listening to learn about the case being covered, I worry they could come away misinformed as a result.
I also think it’s important to be cautious about presenting theories or speculation when not all of the available facts have been thoroughly researched. In the particular episode I listened to, the hosts seemed to rely heavily on a 20/20 episode as their primary source, despite the fact that there are extensive trial records and additional information available that provide much more context.
What makes this especially disappointing is that the hosts have mentioned doing deep dives beyond a paywall to access information. I appreciate the effort that can go into researching a case, but even with that additional access, there were still significant inaccuracies and omissions. That makes me question how thoroughly the available information was reviewed and fact-checked before being presented to listeners.
I genuinely wish the hosts nothing but the best and hope they continue to grow and improve their research. Most importantly, though, I hope the victims and the people at the center of these stories remain the focus. Their lives and experiences can sometimes get lost in the discussion, and I believe they deserve to be represented with as much accuracy, care, and respect as possible.

I used to love this podcast, but I am DONE. First, while Amye and her co-hosts claim to be progressive, they completely lack the knowledge to discuss racial issues. Amye is a prime example of the problem of white feminism. She also suffers from white woman missing syndrome, as do her co-hosts. Until they decided to review the Worst Neighbor Ever, Amye has never covered a documentary or series involving a missing or murdered person of color. Little did they know the third episode would be based in a diverse neighborhood. Amye said, “We should ask Becca (another white female co-host) about the neighborhood located in the East Bay,” they continued to make incorrect assumptions about racial dynamics. Second, Amye believes only mothers can have opinions about harm to children. She and her co-host Becca posted an episode about the difficulty raising children in this political environment. She incorrectly stated that Gen-X never went through anything as difficult as her children are today. Problem - single people are also struggling through this political time on their own. She also talks to another co-host Amanda as if she knows nothing about children because Amanda does not have biological children. In addition, to claim Gen-X never suffered through trying political times is ignorant and indicative of privilege. I can provide a list. Also, how about asking a person of color how their life has been throughout their lives? She also makes derogatory statements about southerners and those who live in rural areas. Again, this podcast is everything that is problematic with white feminism and women who believe single women do nothing to contribute to children and young adults.
