I am hooked! I am a social worker and am often in the car. This show is my go to when I’m not on the phone. I love the chemistry between life long friends when discussing a case. It is the perfect blend between seriousness and comedy. I tell friends and strangers alike to listen, and they do! Thank you for all the hard work, and giving me something to enjoy during my driving time! Hope

Hopeybird · Dec 2024

Investigator Slater writes and tells about these cases so incredibly well! So well thought out. Tank adds the commentary we all need! And the pop quizzes throughout each episode are an extra little treat. Definitely my most listened to podcast of the year. Also— as a trauma therapist I so appreciate the accurate description of trauma that Slater gave in the most recent episode. Merry comment Christmas, y’all! ❤️
