In the era of some of the most heinous serial killers of all time, one murderous family went curiously unnoticed: The McCrarys. Led by a psychopathic patriarch and his cunning son-in-law, this Texas clan roamed the country robbing, kidnapping, and killing up to 20 people, most of them taken from donut shops. “Families Who Kill: The Donut Shop Murders” recounts the wild and deeply disturbing story of an unhinged American family and the terrible brutality they unleashed. The podcast features the taped confessions of one of the killers, given when he was serving a life term in Colorado. All episodes of Families Who Kill are available now. You can binge the series ad-free on Wondery+ or on Amazon Music with a Prime membership or Amazon Music Unlimited subscription.

Mixed review but please make more!

The good: a subject of which I was not aware and a very cool narration style. The bad: extremely repetitive and the breathing/mouth sounds on the guy who talked about the Benders made it unlistenable to me.
Stretched out

Could have been interesting but should have made it a couple episodes and other related things. Or went into more detail, or had more of the interviews. It was detailed only for tiny parts which were repeated and rehashed and repeated and rehashed
Missed the Mark

The podcast series had a lot of potential, but failed in several areas: - Poor sound quality at best. - Actors recreating the statements of criminals had such low sound quality as to be hard to understand. I get what the effect they wanted to get was, but they went overboard and it detracted from the podcast. - Lots of repetition of the same sound bytes in an attempt to emphasize points....it got old, so much so that we jokingly suggested the repetition o would make a good drinking game.
Trash

Don’t know how they stretched this story out to six episodes. The audio on the interviews is awful.
