Customer Reviews
Listen to this!
The ultimate true crime podcast that you need to hear. Kate does a wonderful job presenting the case, and Paul follows up with a scientific and legal analysis. It feels like you are solving the case with them! It is entertaining, informative, and addicting! I always have a good laugh and learn something new from this podcast.
Sorry no.
Paul often sounds like he’d rather be cutting his grass than sitting with this co-host. Their banter is forced and they need to just stop, it’s embarrassing.
Love, and…
Love this team-up, and Kate + her team do amazing research to make for interesting stories. My “and…” is that they both seem to lack a robust familiarity with systemic racism and the immense regularity of police misconduct with suspects + the false confessions that misconduct creates. (I use the word “robust” purposefully - I’m not implying that they’re racists or have ‘blue lives matter’ beliefs - just noticing that knowledge has not become second-nature.)
