Avis
Best true crime podcast yet!
Th BEST true crime podcast to date. Excellent reporting and engaging storytelling. Does not drag on and kept me at the edge of my seat all the while immersing me in the atmosphere surrounding this tragic event. Thrilling yet not sensationalized, intelligent and well written.
Terrific True Crime Story
Superbly reported and produced, this is the best true crime podcast I’ve heard. I also confess to enjoying the NH atmosphere as I miss this quirky yet beautiful state now that I live far away in Morocco. Congrats to the reporter and to NHPR for supporting this work. I gave the requested $20 and hope others will too so NHPR can make more podcasts as good as this one.
