Such an interesting story and incredible storytelling. 10 stars!!! And not for nothing but so interesting that what really happened to Lionel Crabb was the simplest and most logical of the possibilities.

Nah
Listened to season one and part of season two and decided to move on. It’s just not that interesting and not that well done

Are we really gonna compare the treatments of high level government officials to postal works and say it’s because the postal workers are black? Let’s be real here. That can’t be the only reason it was handled differently. Part of it? Probably. The only reason? Absolutely not and you’re an...Read full review »

this is one of my favourite seasons ever! You guys did an amazing job! thank you!
Marie48 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/22/24
The host did a great job on telling the story. Not siding with anyone, she studied the story from both angles which inspired the listeners to not taking side on the prolife or pro choice issue.

Overall, season 3 is good - well-put together and easy to follow. But every time I hear the host mispronounce Montrose it gets more grating - it’s over and over and over every episode and it drove me crazy! You said you talked to over a dozen locals but you still don’t know how to pronounce...Read full review »

Nor everyone wants to pay the subscription to listen.

This story is so compelling and so important. People need to keep a close eye on our government and its various secretive agencies.
Chefchik8 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/24
Season three is absolutely haunting, and I highly recommend it! Megan Hess ended up with 20 years in jail, and after hearing what she did, I think it should’ve been a lifetime sentence. Definitely a sensitive and heartbreaking story, so listen with care, but truly a great podcast.

Why did this have to be made about race?? We are tired of this.
Sissarae27 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/24
I knew very little about this case. Compelling story, well told 👏🏻

Found Season 3 (Body Brokers) to be extremely interesting. Now I’m wondering what actually becomes of my body (via death by vehicular accident?) with “organ donor” marked on my driver’s license?

.. the compound you just trashed in the previous series. LOL.

There’s no question that true crime is the “It” genre of the day. This story is definitely worth telling, but the young woman who apparently did the research and narrates the podcast leaves much to be desired. She revisits the same interview subjects over and over who have nothing knew to...Read full review »

I’m listening to season 3. It’s just great reporting. Sensitive to the victims and their loved ones. Uncovering the horrific crimes of this funeral home and calling out the lawmakers and the changes they’ve made to Colorado law. It’s genuinely eye opening.
Striker77 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/27/24
Great narrating, compelling story and a subject I never knew anything about! Highly recommend!
crewsn811 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/24
I love true crime and this was such a well done podcast. I am from Colorado and never knew all the details. The idea of body brokers absolutely floors me and how these people get away from more serious consequences makes it feel even more scary. I highly recommend this show.
Aterry1205 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/24
The podcast itself was pretty decent, gave a lot of detail & for the most part seemed considerate of the victims, their perspective & pain. I was turned off by the way some of the interviews seemed to be lacking information and like some important statements were skimmed over instead of...Read full review »

I love true crime podcasts and this was a little different than that but entertaining. It kept me intrigued.
Jeanette!?! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/22/24
Season 3 Body Brokers was a very well reported story. I really enjoyed the way the host navigated the serious subjects with questions and investigative journalism.
migsch1980 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/22/24
Stories like these can be difficult to tell in a manner that is respectful of the victims, while not shying away from the cold, hard facts. I believe they accomplished this. The host and producers took the time to integrate experts and victims alongside grieving family members. There were many...Read full review »

Eye opening. Loved it

In season three the streaming service allows you to listen to all episodes (with adds) EXCEPT the very last one. When you attempt to click on the last episode the subscription page is displayed. You can’t listen to the episode. I think this strategy to get more subscribers might be...Read full review »

Did you even go there? And if so how could you pronounce it wrong. Dang, all you had to do was google! I enjoyed the podcast but every mispronunciation was annoying.
Science is sexy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/24
The story is interesting and worthy of a podcast. Like many other podcasts, it is too long. But I feel horrible for the families involved. The big issue for me is the journalist/narrator; she is a negative distraction. I get a mean-girl vibe from her as she interacts with some of the people, all...Read full review »

This season was such a great topic and so much stunning information. But the narration was a bit too slow. It would be better if the pace of the story is faster, it would be a lot more engaging story.
Rafael rosado via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/16/24
I had to give the podcast 4 stars instead of 5 due to the repeated mispronunciation of the city of Montrose. The locals clearly pronounce it while the host continues to say it incorrectly. A little attention to detail takes anything like this to the next level.
montana raven via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/16/24
The story is interesting but out of a 30 minute episode you might hear 15 minutes of actual case facts. Its mostly ads. Whole season could probably be finished in 3 full episodes. I feel like when I do start a new one we are listening to recaps of the episodes prior. I haven’t learned anything...Read full review »

Why is it unavailable?
Hftyredc via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/14/24
Engrossing story and reporting, but the narrator saying Mont-rose instead of Mon-trose drove me nuts.
ppleejkt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/24
The topic is interesting, nothing a person couldn’t easily find online elsewhere in a more succinct format. Far too many ads and a paywall definitely disappoint.
toonie3822 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/13/24
If you’re going to listen to this, keep your finger near the fast-forward button the whole freaking time. I’ve NEVER heard a podcast with So. Many. Commercials.
Fluffster Normalpaws via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/24
Does not say requires subscription until you click on episode. Most have the courtesy to not mislead consumers on if the podcast is free on not. Instead listening through YouTube from an upload. It takes two seconds to add subscription required to episode header. Turned me off a listener and not...Read full review »

What I love about this story apart from it’s quite recent and it’s intriguing, although very sad, has a fascinating but gruesome (sad for the loved ones) twist .. is the gentle way it’s told. No loud music a really lovely narrator voice.
PixieWinifred via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/10/24
Interesting story and appreciated the background info given on the lack of regulation on this industry.
Smariel3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/24
If you spend this much time investigating, writing and recording, you would think you’d get the name of the community correct. It is Mon-trose not Mont-rose. Simple and little things like this are important.
kgWYO via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/24
I listen to many true crime podcasts and can honestly say that this one is very well done. Key people participate, it’s a unique story and it’s well reported. If listeners weren’t so strangely concerned with the pronunciation of Montrose the overall rating would be deservedly higher. My heart...Read full review »
nantucket on my mind via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/24
The story in this podcast is heartbreaking, and the reporters did a thorough job telling the whole story with dignity and respect. I have one complaint, and it has to do with sound editing. Background music should stay in the background. For me, a single noise, the reporter’s voice, would be...Read full review »
PB1334 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/24
Amazing story, extremely sad to think there are no federal regulations or laws when it comes to body brokerage. I see a lot of people complaining about the mispronunciation of the town but honestly get over it. The story is fascinating and the details and information are solid. Don’t let a small...Read full review »

With the chronic mispronunciation of the Montrose, MONTTTrrose reminds me of the Julia Fox meme “Uncut Ghheemhhhms” I wanted to be one of those naysayers and thumb my nose up to those complaining about the all over the board pronunciations of this town. It is a mystery because there are even town...Read full review »

5 star podcast with great context and interviews. Host is great. 1 star because the end is behind a paywall which is not clearly stated up front. I’d be fine paying for bonus content and extended interviews but this feels kinda scummy
GraceRTaylor via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/02/24
If all you take away from this horrific story is the mispronunciation of the towns name, you are a problem. There’s very little difference between mont-rose and mon-trose. If this happened to you or someone you loved, you wouldn’t care what the narrator called the town, or the tone of her...Read full review »

Season 3 was an amazing listen. Such incredible and sympathetic reporting on a disturbing and heartbreaking story. I also appreciated the recaps - it meant I could really follow who was talking. For those who complain about ads - just remember you listen to these shows for free. If you only...Read full review »

Even those of us who live in Denver know that’s not how you pronounce Montrose. How can we trust you’ve gotten the rest of the story correct when you get this basic detail wrong?
Eps15342729 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/24
The woman they are interviewing seems to be saying she knew what was going on but didn’t report it due to the owner being “very vindictive”. They aren’t in high school ! I had to stop listening on episode three because I am so disgusted she ignored what was going on yet validates herself for...Read full review »

Unfortunately, the name of the town Montrose was used frequently and mispronounced each time. Other words also mispronounced. The story is interesting, however.

Good content but only about 15mins per 30 mins as it’s always advertising or recapping
SqizzleWizzle via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/27/24
This story happened in a community adjacent to mine and I think the journalism is fantastic. For all the folks who don’t live in Western Colorado complaining about the pronunciation of Montrose, longtime locals in this community generally refer to it as the narrator does— “Mont- rose.” There’s...Read full review »
