“This is like my 3rd time listening to this podcast, so clearly I enjoy it (while agreeing with all comments about the women’s voices and Debra and Arlane’s delusions). But for the love, who edited these security ads literally mid sentence multiple times per episode?! It’s so distracting and could...”Read full review »

“Podcast is fine, but how incredibly manipulative and messed up to play home security ads in the middle of a story about stalking!”

“Honestly, unpopular opinion, but the story telling was slow and okay at best. Dirty John would have been a better book, maybe? The details were great in some areas and excessive in others. The picture was painted that the family was crazy baseline. Terra, clearly is on a lot of psych medicines....”Read full review »

“Great storytelling, but man, is it manipulative to intersperse home security ads while the victims are describing their fear mid-sentence.”

“This is a great podcast but listen to another version on another platform. This one keeps breaking into ads placed almost randomly, interrupting the podcast mid-sentence, and then picks up later in the podcast with no bridge or continuity. It is so hard to listen to.”

“Didn’t get through it.
Mostly interviews which are difficult to understand and to keep track of who is who.
Truly disappointing from this company.
There’s a great story here, but presented terribly.”

“The audio editing on this podcast is *so bad* that I felt compelled to review.
Ads are always placed abruptly in the middle of a sentence, and there are 3-4 (very long!) ads per episode. So someone is speaking, then in the middle of their sentence it cuts to a 3-minute ad, then it abruptly cuts...”Read full review »

“What a story. It makes you speechless that humans can do such bad things, and even get away with it. I recommend this story to all females - you never know - who needs to understand sociopaths.

“Where did that cool music go? There’s ads in very disruptive places. It sounds different and not in a good way. I know because I’ve listened to it many times. Why mess with a really good thing? I can’t listen to it any more. The impact is gone.

“It’s a well-written podcast and an interesting story. I’d say it could have been a bit shorter. Honestly, if they took out more of the victims’ interviews it may have made me sympathize with them more and helped shorten the length. Skipped the lawyer man. He was putting on the dramatics”

“This podcast is very good however it sounds as if it was edited by a high schooler on an iPhone. People are cut off mid-sentence as it cuts abruptly to a commercial for another podcast.

“The first time I heard an ad I truly thought I had hit a button somehow and changed podcasts. It cut off in the middle of a sentence and went into the telling of another story. Turned out it was as ad for the newest season of Suspect. Each time there is an ad break it does this. Makes it hard to...”Read full review »
