“This podcast was so difficult to listen to but I kept listening thinking eventually it would go somewhere but it doesn’t. It’s just a bunch of people speculating & pointing fingers and spreading rumors pretending to actually remember events from 40 years ago while they were stoned out of...”Read full review »

“Hoping for a season 3!!! I recommend this podcast to every fellow deadhead or true crime fan I meet. Please look into the murders connected to Rainbow Family Gatherings and see if there’s any connections.”

“No resolutions, a bunch of hypothetical scenarios and rambling opinions about our society from just random people. With the success of Disgraceland, I am surprised Jake Brennan is involved with this podcast.”

“I like this podcast for so many reasons it is hard to list on this review. The narration and subject matter are something to behold. As a Deadhead it is cool to hear the story although it breaks my heart at the same time. What a magical experience the Dead culture brings to our society and as...”Read full review »

“I think your investigative journalism
Is excellent.
So when I heard your add for this series I was excited.
My one and only hang up is the bio on the Grateful Dead by your co-host it was a little much
Explaining the sub culture or complete history and bio of the dead?
It gave me the sense of...”Read full review »

“Jake was so awful to listen to I had to stop. The story line jumped around and confused me. Too bad because the topic is interesting and I would have like to listen but just can’t stand it! I’ve like other things Payne has done but the addition of the other narrator was just cringe”

“I know some of the folks in this podcast. I hope this leads to more action on these cases. Can you look into the whereabouts of Brad Ferrinton? He’s been missing for several years now, he was my road dawg! My number is (740)541-0534”

“First season was pretty great. I remember enjoying it and having very few hangups. Overall, I would give S1 five stars.
Unfortunately, season two missed the mark. Bad. I would give S2 one star. Its structure is staggered and off, lacking any flow.
Honestly though, my biggest qualm is with...”Read full review »

“I loved season 1 but season 2 was hard to follow and narratively confusing. He would talk about a story, skip around to other stories, and then go back with no clear beginning or endings. Please don’t do this in season 3.”

This podcast is so all over the place, too. It’s hard to stay focused.”

“I love The Dead and I love podcasts, but this is just terrible. Season one was pretty good (Payne’s narration is kinda tough to take, but otherwise…)so I was excited for this.
It’s just so disjointed. The editing is terrible, there is no clear direction to the stories. It’ll just veer off...”Read full review »

“The really is some sensationalism in podcast. Hard reach through out the show bc there’s barely a story here. I can’t help but laugh at how cheesy this is and how it try’s to paint the culture of the grateful dead as dark and shrouded in violence. Don’t waste your time.”

“Season 1 is really really good, until they just give up on the trail completely for no real reason…. And sadly season 2 is mostly filler. There’s an interesting moment or two, but the awful format of season 2 (jumping around to random stories many of which most fans already know), is just so...”Read full review »

“Bummer man! This was a good podcast until the final episode and the podcasters totally copped out. I’m sad this ended so poorly. There is something gross and exploitive about this show that really bugs me. Scattered and unfocused. Tenderfoot shows are so hit or miss.”

“I'm only listening all the way through because I'm a Deadhead and like true crime so the topic is interesting. But the in-between parts are absolutely painful to listen to. Just talk normally dude!

“Season one was great. Lots of interviews with people involved and facts.

Very little facts and no looking into the guy being hit by a car...”Read full review »

“The thread that holds this season together is tenuous at best. I mean, I bet 15% of the people who died this year were Rolling Stones fans, is that worth a podcast? No. If you have a band of 100 thousand roaming Gypsies and drug users, some of them will die. It’s just a numbers game.

““Experts” make a lot of opinions about race that do not add to the story or cases. I tried to overlook it but it too much when it doesn’t have to do with missing people. In season 1 it was valid but season two is trying to make a point of nothing. The broad strokes of anti police are too much as...”Read full review »
