3/5
This podcast offers insights not captured in the Netflix documentary, “The Staircase”. The additional research and interviews helped inform my opinion on this fascinating case. That being said, the production of the podcast was clunky at times. It felt like someone who doesn’t understand what a podcast is produced this podcast. It’s like my Dad made this podcast. The constant reminders of what you’re listening to in the beginning, middle and end of a 30 minutes nearly every episode was excessive. I didn’t understand why 3 different people with varying American accents had to say, “Five Live”. The repetitious recaps were completely unnecessary. I’d still recommend it if you’re interesting in learning more about this entrancing case.

I haven't listened to this podcast yet because firstly, the episodes seem to be only 15 minutes and they are only releasing one a week....Read full review »
