The host literally can’t finish a sentence and is kind of a nervous stuttering mess :( love the topics but a hard listen.

Part of the reason it’s so interesting is that the podcasters do a lot of research, have great expressive voices, and play off each other well. I thought there no more engaging podcasts after listening to others for 10 years, but I can’t stop listening to this one. 10 stars if I could leave them....Read full review »

When there’s no one to distract the host, it is interesting and informative, and it’s empathy driven. However when the conversation gets going, it feels like the story goes around in a circle and it doesn’t move forward at all.

For the most part I like it or the idea anyway. I just think that if you have a script that you should stick to it. Her going off on a tangent and ranting makes it a bit difficult to stay interested. I just feel like you’re complaining. Also, she’s a tiny bit too emotional for me. We’re not here...Read full review »

I always look forward to listening to this podcast while I’m doing my Sunday chores. Rachel and Greg are great storytellers.
Minnesoooooooooota via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/24
The topics are interesting, but I can’t get through an entire episode due to the incessant banter. I love the commentary and banter to an extent, but it was painful trying to get through a single story with all of the digressions. Save some of the commentary for after you manage to get the story...Read full review »

Love love love this podcast! Rachael is just equal parts hilarious, real and the sweetest soul. Very interesting topics that are well researched and told in a very entertaining way with attention paid to the victims of the crimes too. Also love when Greg is on too! They are adorable together and...Read full review »

What is going with the quality of your podcast? The Hernandez episodes were ’like’ brain dead. Discussing how often you defecate outside was truly tmi. Pull it together, please. Off script ad libbing isn’t working for you.

Your bored, sighing, platitude-spewing neighbor should go back to homesteading. Not everyone you know should be on the podcast. But especially not someone who seems so uninterested. I may not listen anymore. Good topics overall but the lazy convo is no better than what I could have while...Read full review »

I discovered this podcast because I follow Nick Bryant, the amazing and fearless investigative journalist, and saw that he appeared in one of her episodes. The quality of that episode and his high regard for her work led me to subscribe and check out other episodes, and I’m very impressed. ...Read full review »

Rachel, do everyone a favor and stop interrupting Greg. This isn’t the time to show off your comedic skills (which are non-existent). Let the subject tell the story. Your constant interruptions destroy what would otherwise be a good series. Couldn’t make it through a single episode.

I’m really loving your show…I have learned stuff about Nebraska that I never knew existed when I was growing up in western Nebraska (Scottsbluff)…and when I had to move to the big, bad, scary center of all things bad that happened in Nebraska (Omaha) for medical school in 1979-1983…I guess that...Read full review »

Great podcast and easy to listen to!

Interesting cases and easy to listen to :)

I’ve tried getting into this podcast twice now and it drives me crazy how the host cries at everything. The subject stubbed a toe?? Crying….. I’m done
violntshags via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/27/24
Greg, stop interrupting the flow with inane commentary. It’s like you’re talking just to be part of the show but you contribute nothing. The stories are interesting but need to be better scripted. Rachael goes off the rails and then has trouble getting back.

Good podcast
Jenn187 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/10/24
I have attempted numerous times to listen to this podcast. I haven’t made it through a single episode without having to turn it off from annoyance. The host LOVES to talk about herself, doesn’t seem to have any sort of script or guideline to follow, and the random pauses!! I kept thinking my...Read full review »
Beth Butler via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/04/24
This has good info, but she really needs someone to help her with the script. She randomly pauses in the middle of sentences, which is annoying. Had to stop halfway through the episode even though it was interesting just because I couldn’t handle listening anymore.
Phookahorse via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/24
I really enjoy this podcast. It’s like easy listening with the right amount of intrigue. Thanks Rachael!
LourinaRebecca via Apple Podcasts · Spain · 01/21/24
Listen to the episode put out during Xmas 2023 about Santa Claus/Saint Nick. Rachel is so rude to her husband, in my opinion degrading him by cutting him off and not letting him speak. Same with the Chowchilla Bus case. Greg, you are being put down and abused. Good luck.
betthashmeckal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/04/24
All the host does is talk about herself which we clearly don’t care about. The dramatic long pauses are uncalled for. She is a horrible story teller and keeps bringing up other crime stories that we also dont care about. I dont like this podcast i give it -1000 stars. Shes a narcissist with a...Read full review »

Better show without his awkward commentary. Seems like he’s squeezing in to get some notoriety.
oregon customer 2020 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/12/23
Love this podcast, learning so much!! She has this amazing way of drawing you in and keeping you listening. Smart and well spoken. My new binge podcast.
Betty Brightside via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/25/23
I like the content but the reading is terrible. Why are there so many random pauses in the sentence? Just talk.
CheeseAndTrueCrime via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/15/23
Hmm
Quality content but sometimes feels like it’s edited with a chainsaw. And those dramatic pauses for no reason…you can keep that trash
Not Tom Selleck via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/13/23
Listened for your take on Leslie Van Houten and it was an hour of chatter and no report or story! Didn’t even stay on track! Would give you 1 star for this but you have been a good host/reporter .

Such a wonderful show.

Great show added to my workshop listening rotation…we’ve built some beautiful furniture together :)
themonsons via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/30/23
I am sorry but these episodes cover DREADFUL subject matter but it is made even more dreadful by the host’s monotone delivery. There is no passion, no inflection, nothing! She sounds like a 9th grader fumbling through a speech with long pauses and weird pauses at awkward moments where there would...Read full review »

I found this podcast after listening to Deadly Diocese, which I highly recommend as well! Rachael does a great job and is able to lighten the mood with her great sense of humor without making light of the situation she is discussing. Give this podcast a listen I don’t think you will be...Read full review »
JEA2007 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/23
I have never heard this story but reminds me in some way of the Netflix show “The Keepers.” Did not rate as 5 stars as the sound seems garbled at times — especially when interviewing people. Did not like the autopsy jokes from the autopsy techs. I am sure it is funny to them but I lost my Mom...Read full review »

Amazing podcast! Makes me glad I left the church years ago! Well researched and very well told!
Megs5872 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/17/23
Lots of cases I’ve never heard about before.. They’re Very interesting! Originally I gave it 2 stars but after listening for a while the cases she covers are just so great I can’t stop listening.
BrieBirdy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/23
Such an intriguing podcast. One of the only solo podcasts that I love because it’s so well researched and well told. New forever fan!

SeanSun72 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/17/23
First time listening- pretty well done. Learned some new info regarding the LISK case- which is very complex for anyone interested. Will be checking out more cases!
JulieD2019 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/23
I keep trying to listen to this podcast because it seems like it would be interesting. However, the rambling extremely annoying. The random pauses are pretty annoying as well. GET TO THE POINT.
Geneva Denise via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/23
I originally liked this podcast, the way the cases were laid out and the details in the cases. I’m not sure what has happened but it’s gone downhill. The casual and joking tone of voice while talking about victims and crimes, mumbling and sound issues making it almost impossible to hear over...Read full review »

Hi-dTaDa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/23
I have tried and tried and tried many episodes, thinking the topic sounded interesting, but so many interviews take FOREVER to get to any point, and by then I couldn’t keep listening. She uses the word “like” every 5 words…. Sorry, but I’m officially over it
