“Of Millennial malarkey. I’d make a comment here about a wannabe Sam Spade taking anti serum to Gnome but pretty sure it won’t land. Epitomizes the worst of the true crime (r)evolution. Hope you find the truth dude as it ain’t here.”

“Payne does a great job with this podcast. I’ve listened to Atlanta Monster and season one of Up and Vanished so far. Can’t wait to listen to more!He is an excellent investigator and podcaster!”

“I grew up during the timeframe when the Atlanta murders were happening - the era of serial killers. Lindsey creates a compelling narrative to tell the story.
All the interviews where the interviewee is allowed to do all the talking - I loved it. Lindsey didn’t make the story about him, he let...”Read full review »

“If I wanted a podcast about woke ideology and segregation then I would have looked for one. The first two episodes are all about making us feel sorry for a certain race instead of talking about how sick someone could be for abducting and murdering children.”

“I really wanna hear this story but hearing this guy talk makes me feel dumber. You should be able to talk with what sounds like more than a 3’rd grade education to have a podcast.
I feel bad for him
Sure his daddy wasn’t around.
Wish I could give 1/2 star”

“So good but by the time i got to episode 7 i lost interest. I’ve never ditched a series having already consumed hours of it but I lost interest. great production and story telling. I loved the context and the history but after that I wasn’t too interested in the narrative”

“I listened to this series a few years ago and found it extremely intriguing. Listening to it through for a 2nd time, I can’t believe how disrespectful it is to question the integrity of some of these FBI agents, who never had a racial or questionable blemish on their tenures careers. You hear...”Read full review »

“By far the most chilling podcast I’ve ever heard. It made me furious, hopeful, and a downright investigator. Atlanta itself has a chilling past. Hearing that man recount his experience and saying “bye Rodney” was so goddamn chilling man. It was so good that I informed my book club that we were...”Read full review »

“Wayne Williams is trying to do ‘altruistic’ acts but it is truly cloaked in narcissism. He wants to do record deals from prison, and focus on the ‘families of the victims’ by presenting facts that he never actually physically has. He cannot disprove his guilt. He just wants air time because he is...”Read full review »

“It was pretty evident that there wasn’t much drama or controversy involved in this case from very early on. So it seems like the author is trying to cause controversy where there is none. Pretty biased take overall. It’s disappointing because I like the other podcast from this author.”

“My mom was born in Atl and lived in the area she was 11 around the time that all this was happening.

That is some of what I’ve heard about what happened with the...”Read full review »

“You guys are strong to keep talking to Williams. He drove me crazy talking in circles. If he has this “evidence” and the same with Hinders (who can’t see the forest for the trees), where is it?
How you guys kept going is beyond me. But it’s a great podcast!”
