Customer Reviews
Engaging but 60% ads
I am admittedly not a podcast person. I use them as entertainment when the situation calls for it. That being said, I found this podcast extremely entertaining. The story was such that I was surprised I hadn’t heard it before in a Dateline or 20/20 episode. The host did a fantastic job. She came across as very professional and her voice is pleasant to the ears. My only criticism is an agreement with previous reviews that the show is extremely ad-heavy. If you don’t pay for the ad free service, you’ll be fast forwarding 2-4 minutes multiple times through each episode.
SOOOOOO many ads
This is an insane amount of ads. I listen to podcasts for 8 hours a day. No other podcast is like this. Otherwise, good show.
Most of this Podcast is Ads
If you enjoy listening to ads this is for you.
The story was okay. This victim was obviously murdered by her boyfriend and she never wanted help. Not much more to it, sad.
