Solid 10

No fluff. Just facts. No stupid time wasting bantering. Well researched. What a true crime podcast should be.

Excellent

No 20 minutes wasted telling listeners what she has done since last podcast. No trying to be a comedian.
Very well researched and professionally presented.

So many cases I’ve never heard before!

Fantastic podcast hosted by a gifted writer! I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts, and Bitter Endings features many cases I’ve never heard before. I appreciate the research, and respectful manner in which these stories are told.
