Boyhog ,

Loooove this podcast!

BWAH-BWAH-BWAH-BWAAAAAAAHHHH! Who doesn’t love a hip-hop air horn?! Haha. Honestly love this podcast for shining a light on lesser known criminals and their victims because of their race. It’s odd that the media doesn’t cover them as readily as their white counterparts.

Wendy and Beth are warm, hilarious and inviting and tell each story (case) so well...even if sometimes the laughter comes at the strangest moments 😂😅

Will keep listening and will spread the word!

Keep it up x

Hip hop airhorns from U.K. Beth!

I love this podcast. I grew up as a true crime lover which means I have digested most cases that are “mainstream” (who knew that the news was so racist!) I also grew up in a very rural, white part of the U.K. which means that I love EVERYTHING about this podcast! I learn so much from Wendy and Beth, I love the culture corner parts which help me ensure that I can be an effective ally and I love hearing about cases that I have never heard about before. Thank you so much Wendy and Beth, hip hop airhorns to you! Love Beth from the U.K.

okfmorris ,

New listener! Loving it

Was desperately trying to find another podcast to listen to on my way to work, and I love it wowowow thank you
