True Crime Obsessed

I adore this podcast but it’s getting downright difficult to listen to because of Patrick. It would be swell if Patrick would let Gillian get a full thought out before responding. But even more so it would be chill if he would stop doing that thing where he goes, “yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, uh huh uh huh…” we get it, he is not listening to a word she is saying, he is just waiting for her to finish so he can hear himself talk some more…or laugh like a hyena. I used to like him, but honestly he has just gotten more obnoxious as the years pass. Gillian is amazing but Patrick is….questionable at best.

I’m a little put off by the recent episode as somebody that lives in the area that was devastated by the hurricane in WNC and fairly close to lake lure. At the end of the episode they talked about lakes disappearing due to climate change and they mention lake lure where dirty dancing was filmed. I understand that people are attributing the recent flux of major hurricanes to climate change. But lake lure is still there. Right now you might not be able to do it but they give pontoon boat tours. The lake is officially below full finally. But everything is there. Lake lure is not gone

To listen to. I thought maybe I was getting worn out on this genre…being a Gold Girls and Patrick fan I began listening to Patrick’s other podcast GG Deep Dive and realized I’m worn out on the dynamic between P and G. G is great and wonderful for many reasons but my god; her rants and raves are loud, long winded, and on the fringes of Rush Limbaugh-esque rage. I miss the original vibes and of course things change and grow but I’m not into this change.

I miss when it was lighter and funnier…even the dark cases. G is always angry and outraged and I miss her finding the humor in the background. They used to find the ridiculousness, and now they force it. *sigh* I don’t give up on them, but I miss the good old days…
