“I enjoyed the content but the adverts cut in mid-sentence and ruin the flow. Very poor mixing. Also to advertise ‘simply safe’ in a podcast about a prowler feels very manipulative.”

“I don’t mind ads usually, but these are placed in the show so awkwardly. They cut off dialogue and when the ad is over, you can tell that you definitely missed something. It’s a little maddening, because I feel this is something that can be easily remedied. Fix it!”

“The content was good, but after about 3 episodes in I could not get past the “Simply Safe” advertisements..they were constant and very annoying. The lady speaking in the advertisement was like nails on a chalkboard. I had to quit listening.”

“This was done so well. I am from Visalia. I was in high school at Mt Whitney when the Visalia ransacker was breaking into young girls homes . It was very frightening. It is so scary how small the world is and who you may come in contact with at any time. I recommend listening to this podcast if...”Read full review »

“One of the best podcast I’ve listen to in a while, they really get down to every single little grain when explaining the “Vansalia ransacker, The east area rapist, The Golden State Killer.” They really explain how everything goes on and all the crimes he has committed, and they explain how Bonnie...”Read full review »

“I enjoyed listening to the podcast - great delivery and fact-based and no personal opinions by the narrator.
The only thing I didn’t really like is the way ads would just randomly and suddenly play mid-sentece. It ruins the train of thought and sometimes the intensity. You’re too engaged in the...”Read full review »

“This is a very well done podcast and I recommend it frequently to people. My only complaint is the whispering in the final episode. For whatever reason it throws me off and I usually just skip the episode.”

“I am sure this could be a good podcast, but the focus is too much on sound effects and music than on the hosts voice and that’s a real shame.
As someone with ADHD I find it deeply annoying not to be able to focus properly on the storytelling because of those (let’s be honest ) tacky sounds and...”Read full review »

“A well crafted podcast that hooks you in. The crimes are disturbing and haunting - I found it a little creepy to listen to, at times. But it does a great job of commentating on broader systemic themes around policing, justice, gender and trauma. I also felt it gave a great voice to the...”Read full review »

“This show is a 10 star show if I could give it. The level of incompetence by some of the law enforcement agencies & officers that investigated this case 40 years ago is baffling, infuriating and defies logic. If these guys had stopped pandering to politicians and bringing their egos to work...”Read full review »

“I thought I knew about the Golden State Killer. This Podcast proved I knew very little. Excellent delivery, format, information and background. Deepens appreciation for the dogged ones who refused to give up the hunt and went to lengths seen in fiction to finally find and capture the GSK.”

“If you’re a true crime person you think you’ve heard it all about GSK. You haven’t. This podcast is captivating. I found myself listening to episodes a second time before even listening to a subsequent episode. This isn’t a story about him it’s a story about them. A story about his victims and...”Read full review »

“This is indeed a fascinating and well told story. However I’d have liked the telling of the crimes to be swifter because I felt that the last few episodes were more interesting. That is just my opinion though.
I must say, I’ve never been so creeped out by a true crime podcast.”

“I love true crime, I can even fall asleep to it. Not this podcast.

The episodes have me on edge...”Read full review »

“The reporting and writing by Ms. St. John are indeed Pulitzer Prize level journalism. The first few episodes are difficult to hear; they depict the ignorance of our 70’s culture towards rape, the deep flaws of chauvinism and egotism of the police, and especially the stratification of our society...”Read full review »
