My Friend Daisy

I just binged this whole first season. The narrator has such a calm soothing voice that makes it easy to listen to and makes you feel like you’re sitting there as if you’re watching from her pov. Great job ladies can’t wait for more episodes.

Title says it. On ads: investigative journalism of this caliber is expensive. Ads pay for the many expenses you can even imagine. Plus creators should be paid for the gifts of their talent that we receive. We’re spoiled to expect « content » for free. This isn’t just entertainment. It’s about a young woman with dreams and aspirations who was stolen by violence. It’s about how law enforcement’s response (or not), it’s about public policy. It’s ultimately about love and justice. Worth some ads. Worth the listen. Just FF. Seriously. Bravo prod team.

Could not wait for the next one! Love that social media could be used as a force for good. Enjoyed the layers of storytelling from Daisy’s community. I hope that justice will be served. Such a tragedy for this young woman on the brink of her life unfolding.

Such a sad story but also very inspiring and important to share. It shows what the love of your family and friends can do for you. These people would literally go to the ends of the world to find out what happened to their missing loved one. Thank you for making me cry Paris!! 🥲🫶🫵💝

I found this podcast to be frustrating and one-sided. The tone often veered into unnecessary cop-bashing, which felt more like provocation than thoughtful critique. TikTok - the show painted the platform as entirely positive without acknowledging any of its many issues. The guests interviewed seemed immature and lacked depth in their analysis. Their comments came off as juvenile rather than informed, especially when discussing serious issues like law enforcement, crime and social media influence. Also, relying so heavily on eyewitness accounts was disappointing. We know from extensive research that eyewitness evidence is often unreliable, and the podcast didn’t do enough to address that.

I listen to a lot of true crime and a narrator can make or break listenability. This narrator is so melodramatic. The sharp inhales, theatrical pauses, emphasis on certain words, drawn out syllables for effect— there’s something about performing while telling someone else’s sad story that feels so narcissistic. This narrator centers herself somehow, takes herself way too seriously, and all in all the quality of the work feels YOUNG.
