Good not great
I liked this podcast as I hadn’t heard of this story previously. I just don’t know if there was any point to it. The story is told entirely in the first episode to the point that no second episode is needed. They repeat the same details in several episodes. We get very little of the killer’s insight and nothing from the victim’s family. It seems like a podcast based entirely on news articles which anyone can do. It just doesn’t give you a lot of important insight. She killed him for no explicable reason and chopped him up. That’s it. If you are looking for the type of psychological insight you get from a Dahmer or other serial killer story you won’t find it here. Interesting to a point but not great.

The same parts of the gruesome story are told over and over again. Maybe for some sort of shock value. Also very little discussion about the victim. Kind of disappointing.

This podcast is the worst of true crime podcasts. Sensationalist material. The only thing that I liked is the invention of a new tongue twister: say crock pot box 3 times fast.

I’ve noticed if you see Wondery attached to a podcast it’s a solid bet it will be awful. This was no exception.
