But there is this dog barking and car wash sound effect they use in the background that’s really distracting! Be mindful next time…
Amazing Dedication

I just recently started to hear pod cast programs my favorite genre is crime/unsolved misteries/forensic etc. I ran into this title “Run Away Joe” and I could not stop listening. I even got a co worker involved to listen. It saddens me that Joe Maloney was not brought into the justice system, and pat for what he did to June, but I am pretty sure he didn’t have a peaceful life because he was always on the run. Who has peace when they are always afraid to get caught. Glad the siblings got to know about each other’s existence! Your job in finding out every detail was amazing. You deserve a grand review for such dedication to the investigation. I am curious though, Patty, joes jr little sister was not in the interview. Wonder if she refused to be in the program. Anyhow. Please do more shows. Kuddos your way from Miami.

Season 6 was slow and plodding. Going to try season 5 for reasons. I’ll update once done with season 5.
