“Found this series late- obviously aware of the story but never actually did a deep dive. This was fun to put on for a cleaning day- ended up listening to almost the whole thing and my house is clean! The scenes were cheesy and overdone, but I could imagine that being intentional, and I didn’t...”Read full review »

“This is an amazing podcast that spectacularly documents the New York scandal. It is told in such a way that I could imagine that this is just a fantasy story or a villain’s backstory or something like that. I love listening to it and I love the fictionalised scenes that feature because it really...”Read full review »

“After trying -and failing- to get into the Netflix version this was exactly what I was looking for. Not over the top but clearly telling the story of Anna -and keeping me entertained!- I devoured all 6 episodes today”

“Anna was intelligent, did her homework and was very cunning.I can understand her longing for success and making her dreams come true. I can also understand the people she met wanting to believe in her; but using people was inexcusable. This podcast also highlighted weaknesses in the system and...”Read full review »

“Oh, this is just a audio play (re-enactments) about the story. Not an actual journalistic approach to telling the story. Not going to listen beyond the first episode. It's all made up (I guess an homage to Anna??).”Read full review »

“I still think Rachel is a stupid girl!! she used her friend Anna! Anna only had intentions to have fun with her and have a friend! Anna felt lonely and had no one to turn to! Rachel and all the other girls Anna talked to are not friends they’re just money hungry jealous girls! They probably...”Read full review »

“Who wrote, directed and cast the re-enactments?? They all need to find other lines of work, because they’re incredibly bad at their current ones.”

“I find it crazy how she got away with so much so late in the game. We’re not talking about the 50’s and 60’s here where technology was up and coming. The banks and hotels have a lot to answer for with their protocols, that’s for sure. Incredible story!!”

“If you prefer to listen to fabricated “re-enactments” and disengaged narration, rather than new, detailed, or in-depth information, this is the true-crime podcast for you. A real shame, as the case is very interesting.”

“The moral of this podcast seemed to be to fantasize over parts the journalist didn’t bother to research. This is the lowest level podcast, clearly made with very minimal effort. I’m out at episode 3. The story itself is fascinating so I hope someone else puts in the work to actually tell it in...”Read full review »

“The story of the fake heiress is interesting and bizarre, but it’s undermined by the quality of its voice acting, which is risibly poor throughout.
If you can grit your teeth and get past the sixth form play-grade reconstructions there’s a decent story underneath, but it’s a needless slog.”

“This felt like the bare minimum effort put into reporting and focus was instead on the “dramatics” of the “actors”. Which was as good as my quotations suggest. Good if you sleep with podcasts on at night but otherwise, pass.”
