True crime podcasting often forgets that, underneath the gore and sensationalism, there are real people, real families, and real justice waiting to be served. 
The Fall Line® is an antidote to that oversight - focused on ethical, deep-dive coverage of missing people, unsolved homicides, and unidentified persons called John and Jane Does. 
We present carefully crafted true crime stories, thorough research and in-depth interviews with families, law enforcement, and experts. And we bring calls to action, so engaged true crime listeners can do their part to resolve cold cases.
Join us to learn about victims and survivors you’ve never heard of. . . and why their cases were ignored in the first place.

    [PREMIUM] Behind the Line: Making The Fall Line

    [[This version of this episode is presented early and ad-free to our premium supporters. A version of this episode will appear in our ad-supported feed at the regular time on Sept. 20th.]]

    For the first time ever, we’re answering listener questions about the show. We weren’t able to get to all of them, so we’ll be covering the rest on Patreon.

    Our October midseason episode will cover the disappearance of Derrick “Tank” Evans, Jr., who was last seen in Valdosta, GA in 2020. But this time, we’re answering listener questions -- for the first time in six years. We weren’t able to get to all of them, so we’ll be covering the rest on Patreon.

Monotone narration

I agree with other reviewers that the robotic voice is off putting, otherwise love the show. And as another commenter said, the episodes should be longer.

Unplayed Episodes

Great podcast. I love how the story flows so easily. Can you remove the subscription only episodes from the unplayed list? It's hard to know which ones I've listened to and which ones I haven't. Keep up the good shows!!

This podcast is outstanding

I am obsessed with all things true crime and my favorite thing is when the research dives so deep you’re going to find all the juicy details here with the fall line. Amazing research, community outreach, and STANDING UP FOR THE MARGINALIZED VICTIMS. 10/10
