CrimeResearcher ,

Smart and insightful

This 5-star rating is given for the Kirsten Lobato episode, which was particularly well done. The host’s puns and alliterative summaries are the best (and only?) in the true crime business and are much appreciated by this listener.

Toot56 ,

Come for the crime analysis, stay for the political commentary

I started listening to the Todd Grande episode about the Christopher and Susan Edwards case in the UK, but stopped when he interjected a clunky non-sequitur statement about a U.S political figure, which had nothing to do with the case, and only seemed to be a snarky way of trying (unsuccessfully) to be funny. Stick to the case and leave your political views out of it.

btate88 ,

Laughably bad

Shallow and sexist analysis, if one could call it that
