Customer Reviews
I love this Podcast!
Karen and Ben are a great duo. Karen’s research is incredible and both of them add many important details to the cases. They do not try to force their theories on people or pass them off as true. Most importantly they are respectful to the victims and their families while still making the podcast entertaining to listen to. I love this and wish there were more episodes.

Miss this podcast🙁
Love this Podcast!!
I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts and I alive this one!! The cases they cover are a good mix of well known and lesser known. Ben and Karen obviously do a lot of research for each episode. My favorite part though is the banter between them and the unscripted comments and reactions that happens between them. Definitely listen to Crime & Compulsion!!
