Telling a story or just making one up?

This is specifically regarding season 2 Firstly I found the parents have permanent roses-colored glasses, representing their sons’ childhood like a missing chapter from Tom Sawyer. Here’s a tip, running with the fishing pole isn’t “innovative” it’s taking an easy action and making it absurdly more complex, just like getting a divorce is easier than committing a triple murder. I expected the parents to be bias, however the storyteller bought into the ridiculous story, probably in the hopes of making the story better. Halfway thru, the man who “would never incriminate his wife” does nothing BUT point the finger at her!! Up to that point, I’d believed he may have been innocent, but the deviate of that letter is someone who thinks they’re smart enough to manipulate everyone and made me certain of his guilt. I didn’t like how easily the narrator couldn’t remain bias but instead drank the family kool-aid for the sake of ratings. Lastly, the theme music was Not to my liking, that’s the nicest thing I can say about that.
The most unprofessional podcast I have ever heard

This is a tabloid podcast with no attempt to even appear as a journalist with integrity. The person who made this should be ashamed of themselves.
Chris Watts Family 2.0

This family is disgusting and I am praying for Kimberly’s family as this causes trauma all over again. Chris doesn’t even defend himself. His family is disgusting and the reason he’s this covert narcissist. Her family was upset about college degrees? How sick is his family for STILL gossiping about a wife their son murdered. Absolutely gross!

I’m enjoying the story. I plan to go back and listen to season 1 then to #3 The story is intriguing. Vaughn’s mother should be ashamed of herself for disparaging her DIL. Pretty obvious that she was a big part of the problem. I felt like the narrator was bias from the beginning. There were definitely problems with the police investigation but he did lie to the police so how could they believe him? The music is the worst ! Seriously had to skip over the lady singing/wailing parts.
