What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I really enjoy this podcast. I love Kay’s story telling and John’s reactions and him trying to guess what’s going to happen. They have a fantastic dynamic! However, I really wish they’d have someone preview the episodes before the share them to catch the repeated lines. Admittedly, they do improve, but man.. it’s 😬

KayCal88 · Sep 2026

I listened to my first episode of this podcast a couple of months ago and I have been nonstop binging all the other episodes since. It is so interesting and addicting. Kay does such a great job researching and presenting new cases and John adds just the right amount of reaction and emotion. I love that he often figures it out and the banter between this cute couple is the best! I hope they never stop releasing episodes!

ShellyMillgate · Aug 2026

This literally is my favorite podcast ever not just true crime. They have the ability to make me laugh and sob all in one episode. Kay is so good at story telling and John is amazing at giving it that human touch and says what we’re all thinking. When people ask what podcast they should listen to I always suggest True Crime Couple. The only thing I wish was different is when they release their episodes. I wish it was weekly instead of bi-weekly!

Savannah BP · Jul 2026

I love the combination of John and Kay. Kay has a fantastic story-telling capability and John is great at asking the questions that their audience is asking. Great couple, awesome storytelling, and fantastic repertoire! (And… voices pleasant to listen to) highly recommend!
