Love the chit chat, mix of old and new cases, and unique cases only you guys cover. I listen to all of the popular true crime pods & this is probably my new fav! Found y’all not too long ago and have already listened to every episode. Can’t wait for Thursdays 🤍
edit to add: only patreon i’ve actually found to be soooo worth it! extra episode every week?!??! amazing

I’ve been a member of TCS Back Up on FB since covid(ish). I’ve never been a fan of podcasts in general. But I started listening to y’all a few months ago and I am OBSESSED…but just with this podcast. Lol. I don’t care what anyone else says I love the weather updates and the giggles at inappropriate times. Y’all are the best.

I started listening to random episodes based off of cases. Full disclosure, I was skipping through the “banter” lol then one day I had no choice but to listen to a full episode no skipping. That was it for me!! I started at the beginning of your recordings and have completed every single episode 😭 I love you guys. I love hearing your little tidbits of your lives, and I love your show. Great job ladies!!!

I was looking for a new podcast and happen to stumble across this. I usually go for the true crime comedy podcasts but I loved how they really get into the facts and don’t add a ton of fluff. Both girls are great and have very fulfilling lives which I love hearing about at the beginning of the show💗 Honestly though, I highly recommend this podcast. Please keep making these episodes so that one day y’all make it big and we can look forward to more than one ep a week!! Thanks girlies and peep!

I wanted to like this show but the banter is just lifeless. Whether they’re talking about their own lives or a horrible murderer, their best addition to any discourse is “Yes, that is horrible,” or “Mmmm.” It’s just so dry, they have nothing of interest to add to the conversation of any case they cover. Sorry to be harsh, they’re not bad, they should just work on having something to say other than, “Mmm, yes that’s terrible.” Or “Yeah, that’s horrible.” Try to bring some kind of interest other than two monotone hosts who don’t have much to say to any of the points the other one brings up :/ I feel like they’re trying to be a kind of informal and conversational podcast because their research is minimal but it doesn’t work because the conversational part is incredibly lacking. If you want an easy, conversational flow podcast this isn’t for you, but if you want a well researched, in depth podcast this isn’t for you either.

One of the worst podcasts I’ve ever listened to. As many have pointed out, every episode begins with 8-15 minutes of mindless nonsense that has nothing to do with the subject of the broadcast.
Then, you get the hosts reading a Wikipedia entry about the case verbatim, delivered in a rushed, ramshackle manner, interspersed with giggling and snarky asides. And then you get their observations and “analysis” which amounts to the most obvious statements imaginable. “Murder is bad.” “Stalking can be harmful.” And so on.
The end.
Lazy, zero research and insight.
I guess this is what it means when people say that anyone can make a podcast, because any conscious, breathing individual could do what these two hosts do.
