    Disappointed
    Initially liked this, liked the tone of the hosts.. however, I listened to the episode about Genesee River killer Arthur Shawcross. It became increasingly obvious the hosts/researchers are not doing their research at all. When discussing his time in Vietnam, they state he has approx 45 kills. I was waiting for the host to say Shawcross was a notorious fantasist, and that it was later revealed he was a supplies clerk and was never anywhere near the field of battle. From here, it got worse. Host then talks about the possible PTSD Shawcross could have suffered. I completely lost faith in this podcast from that point, and wondered what other misinformation I had listened to. I unsubscribed immediately. I follow a LOT of crime podcasts and this rates as one of the worse. Misinformation, and incredibly poor research. I would recommend people avoid this. Try True Crime Garage, True Crime all the time and Criminology for quality crime analysis.

    Great, but missing the co-host
    I’ve always enjoyed the podcast and Vanessa is great, but it’s not been the same since Greg departed. It was a good dynamic. Thanks Greg.

    Disappointing Watts episode
    I’ve been listening to this podcast for years, and I normally enjoy the way the cases are presented. However, I’m really disappointed by the recent episode on the Watts family. The tone sounds victim blaming - listen to episode one and it’s like they’re excusing Chris and blaming his wife. What he did was absolutely DISGUSTING and I’m really appalled this is the approach they’ve taken. No longer subbing.

    Please do not spoil this show by using it as an advertising platform. Do not also use those background sounds , it really interferes with one’s focus. I’ll give it a four stars review and by the way having just Vanessa on the show is way better than bringing other people too join her .

    To say things have gone downhill would be an understatement
    The most recent podcast was a long, poorly thought out ad for an ABC show. Your stories are about real people suffering real trauma, and attempting to weave an advert into the entire thing is callous.

    America youngest serial killer
    Your episode gets to the final bit and the arrest and suddenly jumps to his sentencing. That is such a let down. Maybe listen to the podcast before posting it. Sounds like a glitch when you get to it. Poor form

    Disappearing episodes
    I really enjoyed this podcast it was becoming one of my favourites until all the episodes disappeared a d left me with only 5! I wasn’t even half way through listening to them all when I wa s left with 5 random episodes. Totally disappointed not sure how to get them all back so I can continue listening to them?
  • Kiahorz
    Where are all the episodes
    Show is awesome but I can only listen to 9 episodes? It’s really annoying. I don’t want to have to download Spotify.
  • laurdor88
    Bad move
    Hate Spotify for podcasts, gutted as I love the show
  • Hcvdvgbgj
    No empathy ?
    Programmes are good but what spoils me on all of these podcast is Greg Polsons comment at the end of every programme ‘have a killer weekend’ not funny or clever, people have died.

    Watch when moves to Spotify
    No ratings system so will get much worse
  • Shabracadabra
    Good content but too many ads!
    The content is great. However the ads have been getting progressively more frequent and longer. An example being the Logitech ad which seems to run for 2-3 mins multiple times during one episode.

    Love the show but hate Spotify
    I’ve listed to all of your shows on multiple podcasts but I’m afraid I won’t be following you to Spotify as I can’t stand the app. Hopefully you’ll come back to Apple podcasts soon.

  • Domlondon
    Once great - now ruined by staggering numbers of ads
    Great podcast now ruined by the slow but endless sneaking in or more and more ads. I think I last counter 5 or six ads stuffed into the podcast. Too many. Too greedy. Too disruptive. Stop. Revenue Milking and remember people will stop subscribing when you keep ad stuffing any podcast

    Thank you
    I work nights and this podcast keeps me company. Thank you so much for this amazing work ❤️
  • DominaLucrezia
    Good, however...
    Advertising volume is ridiculous as opposed to the core content which always leads to a manic rush to lower the volume and then having to readjust after cast continues. Very American shouty ads. Meh
  • Arsenal Del
    Very good

  • Donny diva
    Bad acting
    Why they feel the need to enact scenes with presumed dialogue is beyond me. So bad I had to switch it off it adds nothing to the narrative.
