Cliche writing with overly dramatic hosts and navel gazing.

I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts. I can’t continue on this one because it feels SO exploitative. The way they question children about learning of the deaths of their sister / friend is pretty disgusting. The way they insert themselves into the story, talking about sitting on the benches...Read full review »

It goes on and on and you learn nothing new. What I’ve heard could have been told in one episode or less.
Mylius64 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/24
Absolutely terrible reporting. Most of this podcast just praises the police and their work on the case even though their work was dreadful. It could have been told in one or two podcasts but instead the show is stretched out, playing repetitive interviews from similar sources over and over. It...Read full review »

I’m shocked that his wife didn’t know, they lived nearby, he had those clothes, he had that voice and admitted he was there that day. How could she not put it together?

Same observations over and over and not much actual investigation.

I stopped listening in episode 5. Just couldn’t do the repetitive, unnecessary commentary anymore. I’m not stupid. Don’t need explanations and then repeated explanations for situations and words. lol. Not meaty enough at all. Just ended up reading some news articles to finish my understanding of...Read full review »

You can listen to episode 1 then skip to the last episode and have all the information. Every episode in between is filler. They decided to release this podcast at a time when none of the actual information about the murder is public knowledge. So they do things like spend a whole episode...Read full review »
ToadPope via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/14/24
Commentary dragged it out way longer than it should have been, seemed more about the self importance of the hosts then it was about the actual subject matter
BAM44226676432 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/07/24
This is not an investigative podcast. It’s just occasional speculation and narrating the state of the case. It stays at the highest level, truly more like a journalist reporting. Little to no evidence, almost no insight into the details of the investigation. A lot of talking with very little...Read full review »

Throughout the investigation barely any information was released. For this reason the bulk of the podcast feels bloated and repetitive. If I could do it all over again I would only listen to the first two and last two episodes. I do like the presenters though
leebelkin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/24
Not sure why there are two narrators. On top of so many people accounting their story it’s completely distracting. The woman narrator sounds like a news caster
Sooky Sook via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/18/24
I like how the presenters immerse you in the town and the people, and it’s well Produced. However, it feels a lot like the 24hr news cycle where there’s not a lot of info so they have to fill time with fluff. It’s pretty slow and we never really get any new information.
Moonzap7890 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/24
I listened to this on an eight hour roadtrip and I wish I had chosen something else. Could have been a three episode series or maybe even less. Trying not to be mean here.
DonaldKeyman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/08/24
This podcast was so slow and boring. It felt like they were taking 2 hours of podcast information and stretching it into 10 episodes. Also, the hosts seemed very out of touch with the people and age group they were reporting on. Interesting topic but awful execution.
PlantyEP via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/08/24
Oh my gosh this could have been 1 episode
SD girl11 via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 06/20/24
This postcast is so slow. Great storyline but way too many interviews and not enough facts and evidence. Sadly pretty boring.
Katie Winks via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/14/24
Omg…this case sounded incredibly fascinating and I REALLY want to know more details about this horrible tragedy, but wow wee, this was so dull and drawn-out I couldn’t make it past the third episode! Very repetitive and I did not need to hear interview after interview asking about the...Read full review »
Neurotic Atheist via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/24
This production team is not the kind I’d want. After doing 1 season, they apparently took a break. When the arrest of Richard Allen was made, I went back to this podcast only to find they’d apparently ditched the whole thing. Right when it got interesting. It’s so odd, no announcement, nothing....Read full review »
jennifer sf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/31/24
This is a horrible case. However, this podcast could’ve been twenty minutes long with the real actual evidence that has been provided. If you’d like to find out what is going on, read about it on the internet. You can read every detail that has been released (not much) in less than an...Read full review »
motmulvey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/28/24
Repetitive episode to episode. By episode 6 you still have not been given any additional information about the case. The whole series feels like a news story, sensationalized speech and tone. Better off listening to true crime done by real podcasters.
ATS036 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/16/24
Like a lot of the other reviewers, I think this is a very repetitive podcast. Would be a good drinking game for the phrases/themes you hear over and over.
ms.laurza via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/24
Hard listen as it’s so repetitive and filled with conversations and not facts. Waste of my time. I’ve googled it and found out more in a 2 min read then 9 episodes so far…
WeekendsRBest via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/07/24
Despite stating a desire to center victim perspectives, it’s really just a slightly self-absorbed repetitive recapitulation of facts that were made public very early on, and the story stops just as the criminal investigation ramps up.
ImpGh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/27/24
The episodes all repeat the same info and interviews. Very confusing and hard to follow. I kept thinking I was still on first episode.
Wild Treys via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/25/24
Then it repeats and drags out. I stopped listening at episode 3 to research news articles about if/how this ended. I’m a true crime follower but…yawn.
Smrgrl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/23/24
This has got to be the worst crime podcast I’ve ever listened to. Everything you need to know is in the first episode. The rest of the episode just repeats itself and keeps telling you they can’t share more because they don’t want to hurt the integrity of the case. I’m so mad at myself for...Read full review »
Fenyrey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/27/24
The producers claim in one episode that they are not trying to solve the case but then proceed to spend an entire episode laying out their own theory. It’s frustratingly repetitive. I’d estimate it’s about 1/3 actual facts and real life testimony mixed with 2/3 sensationalist filler. It’s a...Read full review »

One of my favorites. Don’t think I’ve ever thought of another show as much as I have this one when I’m not actively listening
LuvTCinMI via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/23
I am going through (I think) the second episode on a row that has been almost completely devoted to interviews of those close to the victims. It’s repetitive, yes. Also, it crosses the line towards sensationalizing the story and exploitation of the feelings of those left behind. Asking a...Read full review »

My wife and I are avid true crime podcast listeners. this is the single worst true crime podcast we’ve listened to. I consider it a victory that we even finished it.
t9691 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/30/23
I’m not a fan of people that exploit the horrendous murder of two children for profit. Payne Lindsay got lucky once and arranged information that may have lead to an arrest of a person. Now all these podcasters think exploiting murder for profit will make their names known. Barbara is the lone...Read full review »

Commentary annoying
Jycblgssvbk via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/18/23
This team did such a spectacular job covering the initial crime. Are you going to release an update? This is in regard to the Delphi murders.
Melissa080808 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/23
I’m surprised by the reviews about repetition and dragging out the story. I’m glad I didn’t read the reviews first. This podcast is telling the story of this horrific event through the voices of those who lived it. I was not familiar with this tragic event, so hearing from the family, friends,...Read full review »
Hawkfan91 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/23
The way the hosts talk about the case is truly repulsive. I’ve just never heard a true crime podcast that’s so ridiculously sensationalized and heartless. Skip this one.
milsum14 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/10/23
Production is fine, but the series is an over dramatic, draw-out squandering of an interesting story. Like others mentioned, the repetition is mind numbing. A fascinating real life story rendered boring.
Very useful!!!! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/16/23
I agree with the other review that it’s a little repetitive and not a fan of the music choices but other than that would recommend.

considering i listened to this while doing multiple other things , i didn’t notice how slowly things dragged on during this podcast . personally i enjoyed getting to know some of the people that were most involved in solving the case and how passionate they were about it , but it was repeated . ....Read full review »

I found this case very sad / disturbing and was new to learning about it. In some ways I feel guilty putting “5 stars” due to the victims and family’s suffering, but the rating is due to the hosts doing a great job at telling the 2 girls’ story, shedding light on the people of their hometown, and...Read full review »

It’s evident those behind it have no knowledge or respect for podcasting. At times it feels more like I’m listening to talk radio or an episode of Nancy Grace. Don’t think anyone involved actually knows what a podcast is. Great case/very interesting, but the hosts and producers dropped the ball.
JacksonPollock1991 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/26/23
There was a lot of repetition, but I really think it was necessary to keep the information from being so confusing.
MyOwnMe17 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/23
Thank you for your thoughtful and insightful approach to this terrible murder.
Dealhunter73 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/26/23
There’s a lot of repetition, I feel like you guys could have done less episodes because a couple episodes that are basically the same thing just with some more sentences. But, other than that very good and respectful to the families that lost these little girls.
Cassidy8595 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/23
If you like incredibly drawn out and boring and tedious episodes where a lot of repetitive info and feelings are shared, you will enjoy this one. Very light on facts or reporting. I made it through 1.5 episodes and quit, jumping to 11, and there STILL wasn’t any relevant info - just so much...Read full review »

I really enjoyed the format of this series. Please keep up the updates going forward!
todayisthorsday via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/16/23
Repetive could easily have skipped from 3-11 no new info in all those chapters then finding the killer is given with no details Sorry not good
stuman914 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/10/23
The journalists involved in this podcast are very light on sources, relying most heavily on interviewing police and police materials. Since the police in this case have been notoriously tight-lipped and reluctant to release any details, that leaves for very thin material spread out over way too...Read full review »
MLucanus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/23
So the last episode says “what you will hear.” Haven’t heard anything since. So what’s going on? This is allegedly the go to podcast re: the Delphi murders so why no updates? Maybe the hosts have given up on this complex case?
Tom' Review via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/22/23
Tragic loss of 2 young girls. It’s an interesting case given the circumstances with the photo and video. The podcast itself is high quality, but the details about the case in the podcast is no more than one could read in a single paragraph about the case. Given that the podcast is 8-9 episodes...Read full review »
