Customer Reviews
Top-Notch
Anything Jim Harold presents or produces is always top-notch. I’m so happy he decided to reinvigorate his Crime Scene podcast. I am sure to be an avid listener.
Definitely a good podcaster
I have seen the other podcasts Jim has. I personally love his podcasts and wish that Apple Podcasts would give all of the episodes because I know there’s more than 13 podcasts.
Good, but ….
Ok first the good ; Jim Harold has an excellent voice . The episodes are well done , and cut to t)4 chase . No “witty banter between a couple” making light of death and crime . However ,, so far I’ve tried 3 episodes and all have interviews with someone who calls in , with bad sound quality . Maybe there’s no way around this unless one happens to be lucky enough to have an office everyone can come to , so it’s probably not anyone’s fault , but I long for a day when a host can have interviews with better call-in quality . On another note , I do love the hosts voice . Will probably unsubscribe from this one and see if he has a podcast with Only him . If there Is one , I’d probably subscribe to that no matter what the content is about.
