Check The Locks
Olivia said she needed love, so sending now!
Sending love to John as well!!
I enjoy the podcast so much! You two are fantastic! You guys leave me wanting more every episode!
Keep up the great work! Enjoy your day!!
Love this show!
Definitely one of the pods I listen to every week and look forward to! I love the fun banter that John and Olivia have and the cases that are interesting but not the same as all the other ones out there!
Love this Pod!
I started listening when there were about 30 or so episodes in the bank after my sister recommended it to me since I loved Olivia on her season of MAFS. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I love the rapport between John and Olivia and look forward to new episodes every week! Now I recommend Check the Locks to all my friends looking for a new True Crime podcast to listen to. Great job you two!
