I’m really enjoying this podcast so far (and I’m very picky). I’m only on season 1 so maybe this changes but I really can’t stand the background music and random sound effects that come in at random times. It’s very distracting and takes away from the content.

The quote “I didn’t think there was a serial killer out there” made me give this a one star. The term serial killer didn’t even exist back then. If anything, Ed Kemper helped establishing the patterns for the fbi of a serial killer, because he was very open to talk. Also, the reason why Kemper...Read full review »

Love how this show is presented!! I need MORE!

This could be a great show but there are way too many commercials. Just a few minutes of the actual show and then 3-4 commercials. The same commercials over and over. Most pod casts don’t take so many commercial breaks. Just tedious to try to listen to

This podcast is very well done, but the amount of ads are insane. I’ve never heard so many in a podcast, including the “free” versions of the ones I listen to. I’m not sure I’ll be able to finish the series.

Dr Michelle Ward need to direct the documentary with Netflix. The way she want the story to be hear it’s Amazing, she cares so much about her work and mostly the victims. She deserve a Grammy or something special. She need to do a special on Netflix about all this episodes (1-6) before all major...Read full review »

One of my favorite true crime shows. Really delves into how and why the criminals turned out the way they did. Very interesting to listen to. Would be super interested to hear dr Michelle ward go into the Jasmine Richardson and Jeremy Steinke case!

A must listen too
Tawa<3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/24
Couldn’t get past episode one, season one. Let’s just blame all the white men. Really helpful, really accurate.
Sissarae27 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/06/24
The interviews with the investigators, analysts, and prosecutors are unlike anything I’ve heard before. Dr Ward breaks down the complex topics into digestible blocks- it’s not too clinical. Her bedside manner is very subtle and she comes across very authentic. She doesn’t simply focus the macabre...Read full review »

Currently binging on this one, and loving it. The original interviews are fascinating, and although some of them are well-known, several others are new material — at least to me. Michelle’s interviews provide some great insight from people who were there and lived through these horrible times. A...Read full review »

I knew about all of these stories BUT they are being told to you in such a more personal way, I have learned so much more about these people that talked about. This is a very very good podcast!!
Kriss14d via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/24
Appreciated the thorough investigation and thoughtful editing. Also that the focus was more than the murders/monster but the resilience of survivors. Your attention to law enforcement’s biases was valuable, as this blinds us in many fields but perhaps few as critical as this one. Maxine and...Read full review »

I wish they had more but I’m mad because I listened to them all def worth listening to there we’re allot of things I didn’t know.
KINGCHARLES1989 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/03/24
Absolutely riveting! Can’t believe how the Alaska police let this go on for 10 whole years. Loved the archival interviews: throughly researched and well put together!

Michelle Ward is excellent
Tmup117 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/10/24
Love every thing about this podcast. It takes a deep dive into the mind and motivation of each subject! I appreciate all the psychology presented around the crimes and criminals. It also treats the victims with respect and tells a little of their story as well. This podcast is well produced and a...Read full review »

This was my first time hearing this story. What a tragedy 😢 hearing these women’s stories… I was stopped in my tracks when you shared that all the women heard the others in their heads when they ran from him. Holy moly 😭 well done with the story 🙏🏽
gypsyocean via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/06/24
I love how the host tells this story and how she gives credit to those individuals who helped this case.
Shananogin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/06/24
Worth the listen!
sublib via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/05/24
I was a 21 year old female murder suspect in Anchorage right at that time (I’m innocent). I was on summer break from an Outside college. I have never in my life been treated with such a lack of professionalism and basic respect from those detectives, including one of the female ones.

Such a horrific case but great storytelling. Highly recommend!
EllieS2121 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/26/24

Crimjunkie1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/26/24
I never leave reviews and I don’t listen to podcast. EXCEPT Michelle Ward’s mind of a monster. This podcast is phenomenal! Her goal to focus is to tell the stories of the victims and their story. She accomplishes that and reaches 120%. She is thorough and keeps you captivated. Her interviews...Read full review »

Good listen
@Joe Negron via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/24
The way this story unfolds pays tribute to Hansen’s victims; they are the heroes of this story. I send love and peace to the woman who used the Cindy Paulson name to bring this depraved individual to justice. Her attention to detail, photographic memory, and overall resilience are so inspiring....Read full review »

I’ve listened to all the seasons. I love that is organized, respectful, &amp; easy to listen. I enjoy Dr. Ward’s voice and the way she speaks. There are podcasts I cannot listen to because the narration and all the extra theatrics. This is just good ole fashion easy to follow story telling about...Read full review »

Loved hearing from detectives and survivors
GMA athens ga via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/24
One of the best true crime podcasts I’ve listened to! Michelle is an amazing interviewer and storyteller. She humanises the people involved and I loved hearing from the victim-survivors, especially Cindy… what an incredible woman!
Natsreview via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/20/24
I see some comments about not liking a woman commentator for true crime. But let’s remember the reason that Hansen remained out there longer than he should have was because it was men that were “in charge”. If they had listened to Maxine Farrell at the beginning, Cindy and a lot of other women...Read full review »

You sound so smart and sophisticated I love every single podcast you’ve done and I look forward every week to hearing more! Keep them coming please!
Petnjane via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/24
Such a multidimensional and well-rounded podcast. Loved the diverse representation and inclusion of so many voices so often not heard. Totally hooked and in awe of the production after hearing season 6. Thank you.
Lesandra, Texas CF via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/18/24
It’s fine as a true crime podcast. I wasn’t enthralled as I’ve been with previous podcasts I’ve listened to and the narrator is forgettable as the host. Not terrible but nothing to write home about. Stick to dateline.
oaky609 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/15/24
I’m giving this five stars simply because past his childhood it’s good. I happened to know people that knew Robert Hansen as a child. I think a lot more research into his history and initial town he was born in and started out life needed to be done. I run a business in Estherville. From what...Read full review »

This is a very well done podcast. Keep up the great work!
IvethLove via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/14/24
I’ve only listened to the latest season, but I think it’s great. And contrary to what other reviews read, I think the narrator is very respectful regarding the victims and their lives, and it wasn’t made into a fashion show. Seems that some just have an issue with female podcasters.
LizardPizard via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/14/24
I’m a true crime junkie but Michelle Ward is, at best, an amateur storyteller. I

I don’t know if this Dr. is on special medication or emotionally lobotomized, zero respect for the dead. She cheerfully describes a detective as “standing over a shallow grave..” and “wearing a jumper, bla bla hair, style..” moving on to women in law enforcement.

The victims, survivors and detectives get the lions share of the attention and it’s fascinating - it’s the people who catch the killers who make these stories addictive - my new favourite podcast
