This is so well done. I don’t know why it’s not rated five stars. I listen to a lot of podcasts and this is the highest quality. My heart breaks for the Smith family.

Dateline has done that story before in a more effective way. Here the narrator is very slow and deliberate but his voice is somehow fake. Pass.

In the second episode, it suggests someone thinks they were the inspiration for the movie “Fight Club.” That movie was first a book. So that is just not true. And a weird assertion for 20/20 to make. Otherwise good so far.

Other than the extremely irritating use of the present tense to tell this story, it seems ok. But I may have to stop because I don’t know if I can stand the verb tense issue.

Great story, told well and with much consideration for the families. I’d love to hear more like this

One of my top three podcasts!!! I have listened to this podcast for at least 10 times! Such an engaging way of narration, thanks a ton for this great piece of work

I know it’s supposed to make them sound like they’re not reading but it’s super overdone here.

I enjoyed this podcast, but it’s way too many episodes and is too long. This is a tragic story that boils down to greed. So sad for the family.

Well researched and well presented- very professional and get you wanting to hear the next episode.

I had heard about this sad story before and watched it on the news but this was a more complete story and very well done. Hearing the family and friends comments made this a whole different level for this story. My condolences to the family.

Just didn’t hold me or draw me in at all. Seemed pointless

Amazing work, these are the types of podcasts I’m always searching for!

This story was well researched and well delivered. Thank you
katiebelle8 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/17/20
I loved how this story was written and narrated. Told with compassion for the victim and his family but suspenseful enough to keep me listening and asking questions. Looking forward to another series!

A perfect podcast, in every way.
EnidaV via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/17/20
Of course, we have already have seen this story on both Dateline and 20/20! The reason why, I wanted to listen to it again was cuz, Matt Gutman said that he talked to the Killer Ed for 11 hours!! Why is that Not in this? Of course, I’m Not saying all of the 11 hours but, like an episode or two at...Read full review »

Really enjoyed this
Kāore via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 08/05/20
I had listened previously to a very short (in comparison) version of this murder; I appreciated the great in-depth details as Mr. Guttman provided. Living on the Central California coast, I was able to identify with many of the places and surfing values described in this wonderfully produced...Read full review »

I thought this was a really great podcast. If you like crime without too many explicit details, this is a good one for you!
Supergirl818346230 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/23/20
Excellent!!!
ynvuli via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/21/20
Excellent podcast, think 7 hour episode of 20/20 but filled with innocuous details that coukd have been left out and made the podcast 3 tight moving hours vs a snooze fest.
robvale via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/20
Since the first podcasts I listened to like Serial, Teachers Pet and Up and Vanished I’ve struggled to find anything that really captures my interest. This is one of those that does. Excellently written and narrated, no unnecessary detours into other facts or stories, not overly dramatised or...Read full review »

Great research! A definite listen
tiny8987 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/20
I didn’t like this the first listen through but this time it got my attention. Especially since I’ve made plans to move onto a boat in the next couple of years. I also didn’t realize it is a current podcast that is coming out weekly so I was looking for the next episode for a minute. Now I love...Read full review »

Loved this podcast. I highly recommend it hope they do more.

Truth is stranger than fiction and Cutthroat tells us the stories that prove that humans weave the most interesting webs of intrigue and deceit.
play13579 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/20
This podcast is a gem. Very binge worthy. The narrator is a true professional... no injection of personal feelings or opinions like many true crime podcasts. And somehow there are no ads? How could this get any better?
LizaBear_ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/19/20
This is great!! But now I’m left wanting more - when is the next episode of the Chris Dmith story?!!!
dawneknight via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/18/20
Definitely a good listen.
mesm1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/16/20
I was so engrossed with this podcast from the very beginning. I couldn’t wait each week for a new one. Matt Gutman did a great job in keeping my interest and providing details that I could envision while I was walking. I cannot wait to see what the next Cutthroat Inc topic will be
kl0625 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/15/20
I really enjoyed this podcast. Such a sad story, but told with empathy and facts.
Didyoureview via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/15/20
Really enjoyed this. Was eagerly waiting for the next episode every week. Well done Barry. Glasgow, Scotland
Barry554 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/14/20
The whole point of a podcast is to LISTEN. It makes me upset that someone would give this one star. The story is told in a way that kept me interested and wanting more. Matt Gutman is a great narrator. His tone and enthusiasm for each moment just works. I love the fact that there were so many...Read full review »

20/20 did an episode about the story and this podcast, while about 4 times the length, adds basically nothing to the story. Just watch the show and save yourself some time.
Bhutan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/11/20
Am I the only one who can’t listen to this because of the artificial little pauses the narrator takes when he speaks? Like he’s stopping and starting every few words? So fake and affected.
brooklynmuse79 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/09/20
A superb podcast. Engaging and professionally produced.........
David Rhys via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/09/20
Obviously terrible that there was a murder, but no intrigue..1000s of other murders or missing persons that would be better to be explored.
esacsanders via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/20
Story is told with a lot of back and forth, makes following it exhausting. I generally like the way Matt delivers stories on camera, I was not impressed with this podcast delivery. You’re either a podcaster or you’re not, and Matt, love you, but you’re no Brad Mielke.
always60minslate via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/20
Kudos to Matt Gutman and the entire team for this excellent podcast. Thorough reporting and masterful storytelling combined to create an intriguing series. Even though I lived various aspects of this story, I still learned quite a few new things along the way. It was definitely worth the wait!
jag1001 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/20
I loved the show. It sure kept my interest as it was very well written. Keep more of the shows coming 😉
snakeeyes**080504 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/20
What happened to Chris girlfriend? When they where talking to her they always said “remember her dogs barking “ what about it ?
webb1968 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/20
Good narration, interesting story.
PW from GR via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/20
Loving this podcast so far! Hope it continues to be as well produced and exciting.
Seamusdd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/20
A compelling listen. Heartbreaking for the victim and his family. How do we prevent or stop people like Shin before they destroy?!
rip van mommy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/20
Enjoying this podcast but feel horrible for Chris’ family. A free spirit gone too soon.
Maryjoego via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/20
Can’t wait to here the rest! Money, murder and mystery.
Terrikay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/01/20
How dumb are people wondering about to rest of the episodes, it’s a weekly podcast dumbass people
holyshit everyname is taken via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/30/20
