What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I really enjoy the show as a real look into profiling. They actually share useful information and their insights can surely help solve cold cases. My one complaint is the sound quality. The editing is excellent. Not one part of the show seems out of place, boring or drawn out . But the microphones are awful. Everyone but Julia sounds like they’re joining in by Zoom. It can be difficult to understand them at times and it gets loud and quiet. Editing my review because the sound quality has vastly improved 5 stars all around!

I’m a huge fan of this podcast. The hosts provide insightful, well-researched analysis of each case and avoid sensational speculation. It’s an engaging and informative podcast.

Champs374 · Jul 2026

I like the podcast subject matter and the hosts seem very knowledgeable, but wow do they go on and on. Would really benefit from an editor and some coaching on how you can make more of an impact if you say something in 2-4 sentences instead of 12.

stingrayhall · Jul 2026

What I love about The Consult is the credibility — you’re getting actual retired FBI profilers breaking down cases, not just hosts reading Wikipedia summaries. The way they walk through evidence and offender behavior step by step makes it feel like a real investigation. I really like the multi-episode series format because it takes a deep dive into the cases.

hearez12 · Jul 2026

Honestly, the association with The Prosecutors podcast gave me pause but I stayed because of the hosts’ experience and breadth of knowledge. Some of the problematic opinions expressed by the hosts range from ignorant to actively malicious. People are allowed their opinions but if you’re in a position of some authority, it would behoove you to remain relatively objective. The recent comments about incarcerated individuals using religion to manipulate may be true in many cases but then naming names and stating this as fact was really gross. It leads me to believe that you not only have confirmation bias but that you’re not really all that informed about some of the cases you cover.
