I heard about this podcast on Girls Gotta Eat and so glad I did. This is very informative when it comes to various hostage situations. The hosts discuss various cases, victim’s psychological evolution as a hostage, and much more. They review the best practices of hostage negotiations and how...Read full review »

Great podcast. Not surprising from Parcast and Carson Roy. Now I suppose I’ll have to get Spotify to continue listening. To the reviewer who states SURELY her name isn’t pronounced Co-leen....do some research her name is in fact CO-Leen. That’s the case that started my love of true crime at 8

I really liked this show, but I don’t like anything enough to use Spotify. It’s such an annoying app. I hope you move back to Apple Podcasts, but “oh well” if you don’t. 🤷🏼‍♀️

It’s ridiculous that I have to download a separate app, create a Spotify account and go through all of that hassle just so I can listen to this show. I shouldn’t need multiple platforms just to hear podcasts. These guys do great work and it’s really a shame how many listeners they are missing out...Read full review »

Hate I have to use multiple platforms to listen to parcast. Ridiculous and not worth my time even though I love all parcast shoes.

I have loved parcast but moving to Spotify is a big screw up Disappointed and unsubscribing 😡

I don't like the changes you have made, all the short unrelated stories in between the Hostage stories are not interesting And they are played on other podcasts I listen to.Read full review »

Too many choices. Unsubscribed

Since you have moved to Spotify I have unsubscribed from your Podcast. Bad move.

Very butt hurt to come here and see the podcast has moved. I was just recommending it to a friend but we don’t and won’t use Spotify. Hopefully the paycheck is worth it! Will miss listening to you.

Loved this podcast but the move to Spotify just caused me to unsubscribe and delete from library.
Trace2827 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/15/20
I will not be moving to Spotify. It’s sad to see so many of Parcasts podcasts moving there.
Ninian Hawk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/10/20
You are definitely going to loose subscribers with this move!!!! I subscribe to almost every podcast you have and will not be following you to Spotify!
crystalandbrady via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/09/20
I really like many of the Parcast podcasts. However with them moving to Spotify I will delete them from my library. This was a bad decision in my opinion.
BobLacl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/09/20
Not fond of them switching over only to Spotify. I don’t like that app and I will not be following them over. Too bad they made that decision. They lost a subscriber because of that poor decision

I’ve enjoyed this podcast for quite some time. Bummed it’s moving to Spotify only.
Leigh21666 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/20
Loved your podcast , I have too many apps.

Not a fan of this show moving only to Spotify
Bananas9999yf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/20
Parcast podcasts are basically all the podcasts I listen to. They are so good and informative and I recognize the voices now. I’ve been addicted for 2 years now and I look forward to new ones every day!
Ayla Montague via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/20
I’ve been enjoying the podcast. Sad to see it moving to Spotify only.
MikeS90 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/20
Love this podcast! Disappointed to see it is leaving itunes. It has great content, well produced and the stories are very intense.
WishItWasThe90's via Apple Podcasts · South Africa · 04/28/20
Good simple easy to follow story telling. I would like to know the sources of the information. Seems way to detailed to be accurate, they appear to present hearsay and circumstantial evidence as fact. Makes for good easy listening but not factually sound information.
Mc3ndree via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/25/20
Irma and Carter are two of my favorite Parcasters! Hostage keeps me on the edge of my seat!

These people’s next gig will be testifying on behalf of criminals in effort to gain sympathy and reduced sentences.

Can you stop talking about Spotify every 2 seconds?
morazo_mo via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/16/20
I refuse to download another app to listen . I hate when podcasts pull this on listeners.
andrea_m via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/20
This is my favorite podcast from Parcast. I love that they shed light on actual negotiation tactics, as well as describing the psychology behind the behavior of both the hostage and the captor. I would love to listen ad free on patron but I am currently broke so I just deal with the commercials...Read full review »

The hosts sound like local radio advertising schmucks delivering a condensed Wikipedia article. I made it 15 minutes before distaste outweighed curiosity.
Ikeplus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/20
I used to enjoy this show at least a little bit. I am debating deleting due to the twice a week shows multiplying my feed. Did anyone ask for extra episodes???
Magicallyinvisible via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/12/20
I just can’t listen to these parcast dual host podcasts. What was clever a few years ago, is now just annoying. I wish they’d warn us with 2x marker in the title. Maybe in the future someone can redo the podcasts with one host. Until then, count me out.

Unfortunately, Hostages,and other Parcast shows, keep telling their story with a political bias or motive. I listen to podcasts to learn, expand my mind, and escape a normal routine. Now political OPINIONS from history and current day are somehow necessary to tell past events? Start a propaganda...Read full review »

Love this podcast it’s totally addictive
Danci25 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/01/20
This show is pretty good. I hate the summary at the beginning of every episode. Just tell me the story.....don’t tell me the end in the beginning! No one likes a spoiler! I also really don’t care for the Hostage stories where foolish people travel to places for selfish purposes, and waste tax...Read full review »

Absolutely love listening to these! I really hope you do an episode about Elizabeth smart!!
Lily_Grl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/10/20
This pod is just terrific - amazing true life storytelling, but without over-sensationalising, and excellent quality production. This is a ‘proper’ pod, with carefully written & told stories that need to be heard to be believed. There are too many high quality eps to recommend, but if you...Read full review »

This is obviously for entertainment but do not mistake serious voices with journalism. Just listened to the Munich Olympics episode, and the blatant pro-Palestine tone is rather off putting.
NW3Swede via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/02/20
I love the way the hosts deliver each story, with respect to the victims, and still telling the story as it was with the facts that made these stories unforgettable. Thank you 🙏🏼.
MandyPina via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/20
I enjoy all podcasts narrated by Carter Roy. Despite his calm sounding voice, I was literally holding my breath and found myself struggling for a deep breath when describing Fr. Jenko’s long journey in the tire storage. These podcasts are well researched, written and narrated. Thank you!
Modivo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/20
Very offended by the way the Amy McPherson story was portrayed as a “Pentecostal”....you obviously didn’t clearly do your research on the Pentecostal faith! I haven’t done research on this story and who/what she was, but as a modern day Pentecostal I get frustrated by the way our faith is...Read full review »

I love true crime, as a insomniac this helps me rest

Please, I can’t take Molly’s voice. She is trying way- y-y too hard. I give up!
Buena Park 50's Girl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/27/19
I’m binging the episodes now. I can agree w some of the comments suggesting one full episode every 2 weeks vs half every wk. I purposely wait to binge bc if I had to wait to hear a conclusion, then I pass it up (even if the whole podcast tells 1 story) until I can binge the entire story. This is...Read full review »
