I found Naomi fairly recently after listening to her “Investigating Essex - Dying To Be Saved” podcast (which is mind blowingly good). Now working my way through REAL. Naomi’s calm voice is so easy to listen to and she really gets to the heart of the story in a totally different way than any...Read full review »

Just found you when you visited Stuart Blues podcast, really like how you add in real audio, it fully immerses you into the story. Listen in the car while I drive to work meetings.

Naomi is the best at researching and relaying stories in the most sympathetic and factual way. There is no unnecessary sensationalism, respect is shown for victims and their loved ones, and it is clear that so much work and care goes into making this podcast. The deep-dives in particular are...Read full review »

I came across this podcast while ago when Lalalaletmeexplain mentioned it in her story and it quickly became my favourite podcast. You can tell how much work Naomi puts into each episode. There’s no bias, there’s respect for the victims and their families. I love Naomi’s voice - it’s so lovely,...Read full review »

I came across Real after struggling to find a true crime podcast that kept me interested, by this point I had tried loads.

Thank you so much for your great podcast. I discovered you via Stuart Blues podcast… not realising that I’d listened to your podcast investigating Essex before. Keep up your fantastic work! Wish I could start a podcast and share some of my thoughts and stories too.

Naomi is so skilled at recounting these true crime stories that the podcast has had me hooked. She is also really thoughtful about what and how she shares information, and remains respectful of the victims and their families throughout. Thanks for all your work Naomi!

I only discovered this podcast a couple of weeks ago (via British Murders) and have since binged every episode. The cases are very well researched and told in a way that leaves you wanting more [not more crime, but more episodes]. The deep dive multiple part episodes have been exceptional. This...Read full review »

It is exactly like listening to the character 'Dawn Sutcliffe' from 'Gavin and Stacey' . She has an almost identical voice. It's well- researched and very respectfully done but hard to listen to because of the voice being like the tv character. I just picture 'Dawn'...Read full review »

So, this is my honest review. I love Naomi Channell. The REAL podcast has had me listening from star to finish. I came across it by accident having only listened to a few podcasts before. I was instantly hooked. I ac to ally started with a mini series and it was the Charlotte Downes one that...Read full review »

Lou@loulou via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/18/24
What a show. Always finding new and different crimes that aren’t elsewhere. And delivered in just the right time length. Brilliantly researched and the host Naomi has such a clear, calm and compassionate tone throughout.

Mrs G-St via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/10/24
Naomi delivers these cases with so much empathy. You can hear how heavily Naomi immerses herself in each and every case, almost as if she was actually there. I listen every day. Would highly recommend also listening to Naomi’s painfully deep dive into the mental health system in Essex ...Read full review »

The most perfect true crime podcast, I only discovered a week ago and have binge listened to the entire thing! Brilliant host and well told stories
iretips6575 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/03/24
Such a fantastic true crime podcast, factual, detailed, balanced and told with empathy. Highly recommend
Jo🤟🏻 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/24/24
Love this podcast. She keeps it short and sweet and straight to the point. Can’t go the ones that are long winded before you get to the end. And she always puts up trigger warnings which is good as you know if the mood you’re in whether to listen another day when you feel like it. Highly recommend.
ellbeetee via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/24/24
Naomi is a gift to True Crime podcasting. She is a truly marvellous investigative broadcaster (unlike some others who seem like they have merely recited Wiki pages).Her style of deep dive reporting is delivered with a straight talking yet empathetic tone. I have listened to many true crime...Read full review »

This is such an interesting, informative and amazing true crime pod cast. I only discovered this pod cast about a month ago and I was hooked from my first listen and pretty much binged it all! I love how sometimes the creator lets her feelings known, without it affecting the case being told....Read full review »
Monica-1984 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/21/24
I found this podcast by accident but so glad I did. I really enjoy the mixture of solved and unsolved cases. I also really enjoy the deep dive cases too. The cases are varied and very well presented. I have spend hours binge listening to episodes.

Hi Naomi, Just want to say my boss and I are a small team of lady decorators and came across your podcast.

You are a firm favourite part of our...Read full review »

Real is the most respectful true crime podcast out there - no one does it as respectfully and thoughtfully as Naomi. The deep dive series are my favourite and well worth a listen.

Just came across this true crime podcast- where have you been hiding! Thoroughly researched, factual and not to mention that voice! Your voice is very soothing, I’ve nearly binged through all the episodes ☺️🫢xx
Naz11809 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/03/24
I stumbled on Naomi’s podcast whilst searching for some new True Crime to listen too. There are many podcasts that ‘sensationalise ‘ crimes I feel and I’m not interested in that at all. Naomi’s soothing voice & natural ability to story tell with out sensationalising is very apparent &...Read full review »
chicybee via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/01/24
I love this podcast, the lady has a nice voice, not annoying or that weird ‘croakiness’ you hear. The deep dive into the Billie-Jo Jenkins case was especially good. The delicate way Stuart Lubbock’s story was told sensitively with dignity and feeling. All stories are narrated with calm and respect.
Walfiethewonderdog! via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/26/24
Huge fan . Have listened to every episode . Naomi tells each story in such an empathetic way never shying away from the brutality of some of these cases but always being mindful of the huge impact they have on family and friends . Keep them coming please.
Ginger Spring via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/25/24
I very recently discovered your podcast and I am so glad I did. Your voice and narration style is perfect and it results in the victims being given the utmost dignity and respect.
