“I think a lot of people don’t appreciate the unpaid labour that goes into making a podcast… the reviews are so harsh! Thanks for making this podcast! I liked it & hope more episodes come.”
“Wow, there was so much more to the Tom Capano murder of Ann Marie Fahey but this podcast glossed right over it. The narrator has a lovely voice but no inflection so it’s difficult to get interested in the story.”

“In the Carole Tregoff/Bernard Finch episode, the nanny couldn't have called 911 because it hadn't been invented yet and wouldn't come to LA for another 25 years or so.
If totally obvious goofs like this are made, how many lesser-obvious ones go undetected?
Also - cheer up and...”Read full review »

“Decent and interesting material. Howeve, the weird 2 minutes blank intro and low tones is extremely odd and annoying. Also, The narrator’s voice has a weird “up” inflection at the end of sentences along with a strange drawl.”

“I can not make it through a 30 minute episode because of the narrator. Her voice is nasally and she has the most obnoxious enunciation and ends sentences with a weird up tone as if she is asking a question rather than making a statement. Maybe she is reading the stories for the first time at...”Read full review »

But the monotone voice just drives me absolutely crazy. Where's the excitement, inflection, anything !! 😭”Read full review »

“The story is interesting and concise, but the long pauses that may be attempts to build suspense are just annoying and take away from the story. If the listener has time to think, “oh, no. Is it buffering?”, then the pause is too long. Also, the monotone voice might be for effect too, but it...”Read full review »

The presenter has an odd drone yo her voice, most notably at the end of a sentence.”
