“Melissa McCarty’s (?) voice/narration is intolerable. Terrible editing. Terrible audio. A real missed opportunity.”

“I’ve never heard of either cases in the two seasons they have so it was interesting to listen but it does feel like they stretch it out and have a lot of ads. I just skip them so it’s not that bothersome but I probably wouldn’t recommend. Sorry ladies”

“Loved crystal and fell in love with her. I love how the hosts told her story. It was very in depth and that’s why I fell in love with Crystal and care about what happens to her. But the show was very long and I think it could have been told in a way that was so slow”

“Just finished season one, after the first two episodes, I thought I knew where this was going. I was wrong. Great reporting, very sad story, so glad I listened, so much so that I signed the change.org petition for Crystal Howell.”

“This podcast could've been excellent. However, listening to scratchy telephone audio gets extremely irritating after the first two episodes. It's too difficult to continue. I'm surprised you would rather put listeners thru this torture than to narrate it. Very lazy journalism.”Read full review »

“Why do you not report about her and her behavior in prison? Why not mention her infractions? Why make it seem as though she made one mistake and now is a model prisoner?”

“I hope she can get resentenced. She 100% should have been punished, but her sentence is way too harsh. If anything she should receive some aggressive therapy. She was a child and not just that, a child that has been severely abused. Crystal keep your head up. We’re rooting for you!”

“I 100% believe this story I actually went to the alternative school “Aspire” in 2010ish I remember she got hit by the car right before they sent her to aspire everyone called her roadkill. A lot of little details and correct time line really makes me believe the entire timeline. This story needed...”Read full review »

Hosts are having a hard time disconnecting from their altruistic intentions, as others opine. Take peoples’ critical commentary as a lesson for the next podcast you do, and stop taking commentary personally—the...”Read full review »
