“I listen to this show only if there is a subject I’m interested in. For the latest show about Zodiac, the time comes in at a measly 13 minutes. I would dare say that at least 1/3-1/2 of those 13 minutes are commercials. That being the case, how much actual information is being given? Not much.”

“I mean the content is okay, but the male narrator, Shane, frankly does not have a good voice for this. He sounds similar to a muppet, and hard to take seriously when he talks about such serious topics. He might be better doing the research and writing behind the scenes? I’m sure he’s talented in...”Read full review »

“The only reason I keep listening to this podcast is because Shane Water’s voice is awesome and because of what the show used to be like. Season 1 is literally one of the most brilliant podcast seasons of any podcast, ever. I was a subscriber after that. But I ultimately had to cancel my...”Read full review »

“Was looking forward to hearing this, it came highly recommended. Was super disappointed in the first five seconds as TWO solid minutes of prerecorded commercials played. I dumped the cable box over a decade ago because of commercials. The only casts I’ll subscribe to are the ones that have...”Read full review »

“I just started listening to this podcast, so yes I'm very far behind everyone who's listened from the start all the way up to the current season (32 I think?).
So that being said, this review is based purely on the first season.
I really do like this podcast. The research has clearly...”Read full review »

“Pros: Interesting cases, educated podcasters with knowledge about forensic science, good background research.
Cons: It’s unclear, but likely, most if not all non-podcaster inserts are being performed by actors who read from a script, it feels extremely over done in a non natural way, unnecessary...”Read full review »

“I love listening to your historical true crime stories. Your voice is extremely enjoyable to listen to. I never realized how much the voice of the host made a difference in my listening enjoyment until I started trying others. I guess I got lucky.”

“This guy is… not very intelligent. Just tried to listen to S24 Ep1. Had to stop less than 5 minutes in. In those few minutes, he managed to make the following mispronunciations:
“Grippling” instead of gripping
“Ignamatic” instead of enigmatic
“Bro-ding” instead of brooding
“Psych” instead...”Read full review »

“What a story! Never heard of this fascinating mystery. However, as really no one else had a motive, probably just another case of the rich getting off Scot free!
Beautiful telling of a sad tale, as usual presented by Shane.”

“Listening to episode 84 when the female host began to question their guest and asks him what he likes to be called. He tells her he prefers Willy to which she tells him she will just call him William. She gets snarky when he tells her his qualifications then asks this FBI expert if he could tell...”Read full review »
