Customer Reviews
Complex
It’s a disturbing story. The podcast unfolds in a unique way - blending true crime with the human relationships, motivations, fears, psychology, really great story telling.
A podcast by medium only
A great example of why people flocked to podcasts - to get away from this kind of crafted, drawn out radio play. Little content delivered over a stretched series to maximise advertising. Lots of extraneous speculation by “experts”, snippets of interviews dropped in here and there for effect. Could have been one episode instead of the three so far. It’s ok, interesting story, but it’s not really a podcast.
Compelling
Great podcast. This is real life and the covert audio recordings, as well as Jennair’s self audio really gives it the edge on compelling listening.
It’s shocking, sad, frightening, full of despair and then unbelievable loss of life. Mark, in my opinion, fails to fully understand his role in this tragedy. I feel he’s disconnected from reality.
I wonder how Meredith’s family cope with this this very private story being told. It must be hard for them.
