“The topic and concept is very interesting, but all they do is glorify criminals and try to make them victims. Hold theses felons accountable and realize that they are just garbage people. Just because their skin is dark doesn’t give them get out of jail free cards.”

“Outstanding history of the actual event with lots of leftist talking points and one sided statistics sprinkled in along the way. The host is a really good story teller, but let’s her biases show through a little throughout and then a lot in the last 3 episodes. Question… who kill more cops in...”Read full review »

“Started very well (first 6 episodes) before becoming a soapbox for injecting personal ideology about guns and policing. Disappointing that journalists nowadays can’t just allow people to share their experiences and let the audience draw their own conclusions on a topic or subject matter.”

“Started off strong, suddenly it turns into an anti gun measure for police forces. Of course none of the anti gunners served a second on any force or have ever been shot at. Do not listen to this trash.”

“The show was decent until you decided to insert YOUR opinion on fake climate change into the narrative. I listened to 5 minutes and couldn’t take it anymore. Climate Change is a hoax”

“The storytelling of the Norco bank robbery was well done and I thoroughly enjoyed it, however, the show took quite a political anti-policing twist that was very disappointing. You can’t set forth these types of statements until you have actually risked your own life in the line of duty.”

“I really loved the first half. The host really did a great job on the storytelling aspect. I hung on knowing the story would wrap politically. I’m middle of the road and wanted to hear her POV. But I think where she failed me as a listener was the immediate divisiveness in episode 6. Not all...”Read full review »

“Interesting story at first. But then goes off the rails when the journalist doesn’t understand why a cop would want to kill a bank robber that ithas been shooting at him for the past 40 minutes and killed a fellow officer. Then later episodes starts hard-core leftist talking points about how many...”Read full review »

“After that it’s no more history, just a liberal’s opinion of how police are bad, bad, BAD! And how criminals have a justification for what they do. But also….the police better show up when they call!! Or else they’re racist.”

“Ya I agree, it was really good until episode 5. Then I turned it off. The woman saying it’s not the cops roll to end a life after they have killed people. Hard left took over and completely ruined this. Too bad.”

“It is only at this absurd moment in history when a story about Norco 80 could spend any time at all on racial injustice. This is a story about bank robbing murderers, dumb ones. The police were unprepared, that’s it. Despite the production values being very high, I found this cringey stretch into...”Read full review »

“Listen to the first 7 episodes. The narrative stays mostly to the facts of the case. This podcast takes a hard left turn and became extremely politically polarized in episode 8. Also, there were quite a few factual inaccuracies, especially when if comes to basic firearm knowledge.”

“They had a hidden agenda that doesn’t come out until after the story is told. It would have been better if they noted that their version of this story is political. I listened to the podcast wanting to hear about this insane bank robbery, and get away in a sense from current news trends.”

It should present both sides and allow the reader/listener an opportunity to come to their own conclusion. Here she did not allow that ......”Read full review »
