There are more interesting true crime podcasts

Sworn was hyped up a lot, and it doesn’t meet expectations. An interesting podcast but there are more interesting true crime podcasts out there. I also struggle with the heavy Georgia (USA) accent at times. I think everyone was hoping for more episodes, considering the hype.
