Love the Somebody, Somewhere series of true crime podcasts… all 3 series give us true crime junkies the well-researched and well-written details we look for in content that holds our interest and keeps us wanting to binge the next episode. Hoping David and Jodi will be producing more!

I’m so devastated!!!! I STRONGLY BELIEVE they did NOT RECEIVE A FAIR TRIAL!!!!!! I’m sick to my stomach!!!!!!!! If it broke the jurors heart then she made the wrong decision! That Juror is so ignorant! Suggesting that our Judicial System that’s been around for 100’s of years works!!! She...Read full review »

I’ve wondered about this case since it happened. Thanks for taking a hard unbiased look at it.

Thank you for this podcast. The circumstances Luna’s death are so disturbing and need continued attention and focus to find the truth. The ancillary story of Nacoe Brown was interesting as well, until I read that he fell back into the criminal life and plead guilty in Jan. 2023 to robbing a...Read full review »

Engaging, well-reported. A great listen.
Fletchva85 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/23
I’ve listened to all seasons and all are well put together. The one about Jonathan Luna especially made me want closure for the blatant coverup in regards to his murder. Truly sad how Luna’s and Wale’s murders go unsolved yet there’s a lot of coincidences and circumstances around them. The story...Read full review »

I started listening to SBSW a few weeks ago and couldn’t get enough! The episodes are full of information and the stories are told so well. I really enjoy listening to David. He has such a calming voice which makes for great listening! I can’t wait to hear more.

Somebody Somewhere is my new favorite podcast. So well done. I’m addicted!
SKH-78 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/23
Well done! I appreciated the authentic and genuine feel of David Payne’s reporting and podcast style I look forward to many more seasons!

Absolutely amazing telling of their investigations and laying out all they find along with all that has previously been laid out. Absolutely amazing, cannot wait for more!

The art says “all seasons” but I am hoping that this isn’t it. Your series is so good and the calming way you dig into these stories is everything. Really got into this for the Luna story because Crime Junkie recommended we listen but have so far binged the first two seasons.
EssieWillows via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/29/22
It’s hard to find really good serialized true crime podcasts when you binge them. This one is as good as it gets.
StanW74 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/29/22
I wish all podcasts were this good. Intelligent, intriguing and digs deep. No fluff here!
Lmalinsdream via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/23/22
This is one of the best podcasts out there. I love how they dig into the story and look at all aspects, a real deep dive and 360 degree review that provides the background and insight you never get from a case. I like that they go where the story takes you. I just binged every season and couldn’t...Read full review »

After hearing about Luna on another podcast, I had to know more. What I got out of this podcast was something even better than information. It was enlightenment. Amazing job!
Bethx0xxx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/20/22
Really good journalism. They have me hooked!
Jo_c90 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/19/22
They spoke to the sort of crime victim who usually doesn’t get a voice.
jdoldlady via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/22
I loved listening to this Podcast. Can we somehow solve this murder case? Suicide, yeah right…congrats on a wonderful Podcast. Being from Baltimore, I have always been fascinated by the Jonathan Luna case! Bless him and his family

The bar has been set. Unbelievable podcast
Ty Ploucha via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/22
David Payne is a fascinating, Renaissance man, who has now turned his many talents into solving a decades old murder. Don’t underestimate this man. The production, storytelling, and music all add to the suspenseful experience of this tale. Don’t miss.
Live2Tivo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/23/22
For me, the interviews with Jonathan’s friend Reggie were so priceless. He gave life to Jonathan’s character and memory and depth to the story.
emmteeemm via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/22
Enjoyed this podcast. I did feel it ran a little long. Repeated information especially in the last few episodes. It sure does bring to light the corrupt people in all aspects of government though! We know that a lot of politicians are in for fame and fortune. Didn’t realize just how low on the...Read full review »

This officially is going down as one of the best podcast I have listened to!
4jens via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/10/22
Definitely kept me engaged. Super interesting. I’m ready to listen to Seasons 1 & 2 now!
pfingold via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/19/22
Stellar research, amazing investigative depth, dynamic partnership! Started w/ Season 3, so compelling & opened me to a much deeper understanding of issues I rarely considered. Kept binge listening all the way through the Seasons. Now on season one episode 10 and all I can say is WOW, award...Read full review »

I love how this podcast keeps me coming back to delve through more twists and turns as we discover the people/characters in and around stories! Fascinating!
DeborahNancy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/23/22
I loved the other seasons but S 3 is the best. Although some have questioned the choice to feature Mr. Brown, I am so glad you did. I could go on but I will just say that this is one true crime podcast that has me thinking about larger issues, spiritual and societal. Good work!
Hipster Mom via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/02/22
Season 3 ….. who is this about Jonathon ,, no wait ,,, hm…… What was the point
wilfulgreen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/29/21
After listening to so many podcasts that inject drama or pander or don’t ask or answer important questions, this series has renewed my faith in the genre. The creator/narrator and the producer assumes we are intelligent people who want to follow their investigation of these cases. Every season...Read full review »

I enjoyed the first two seasons, but season 3 was just fantastic!

Awesome!

Such fantastic, comprehensive and insightful podcast. Great journalism and compelling storytelling. Hoping there will be more seasons!
Neuhcricjrjcirjc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/14/21
I came across this podcast accidentally while searching for another one. After listening to Episode 1 of season 1 I was hooked. I listened to the whole season in a day and a half. Currently on season 2 episode 7. I’m glad I’m late to this party. Waiting for a new episode would be agonizing....Read full review »

Just finishing S3 about Jonathan Luna and looking forward to S1 and S2 stories. Would like to know the name and artist of the song that is played at the beginning and end.

I love this podcast. The quality, information & production is well-done. The level of investigation will keep you on your toes the entire time. This is one of the BEST podcasts hands down! The host’s voice is perfect, very smooth - very professional! There’s one downside but I’ll keep it to...Read full review »

I rarely get excited about a podcast-- even the ones I like. But "Somebody Somewhere" exceeded all of my expectations, and left me with the same sense of wonder and satisfaction I have walking out of a truly excellent movie or play. David Payne is a great storyteller, also with a knack...Read full review »

A little redundancy and slow spots do not prevent this Crime Thriller podcast to be high on your list to enjoy.
SMS3232 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/14/21
Totally recommend it!
Izzza H. via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 06/07/21
Honestly the point of the podcast is convoluted by dramatic language, political agenda, arrogance, name-dropping, etc. Extremely difficult to listen to without just rolling your eyes or getting bored and lost in the long winded story.
stillstacey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/04/21
David Payne’s conscientious reporting matched by his insight as a former prosecutor, makes for the equivalent of a first rate page turner. I know a fair amount about the Luna case but I learned a lot more from this well produced podcast. Throughout, Mr. Payne and his co-host, Jody Gottlieb,...Read full review »
Filmmaker1225 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/30/21
James Comey was indeed a registered Republican for most of his life. During the time period the host refers to in S3E2, Comey was, in fact, a Republican. Only later did he change his political affiliation to Independent, not Democrat. Facts over fake news, people. With that out of the way, I’m...Read full review »

A riveting telling of, IMO, the unlikeliest story of suicide I’ve ever heard. Mr. Luna & his family deserve answers. The autopsy report should be released bcoz I can’t imagine how someone stabs themselves 36 times, including in the back. Has the family seen the autopsy report? Why such a...Read full review »

I have absolutely enjoyed this podcast. It has been very well put together,And is a tremendous accomplishment for those involved.

James Comey is not and has never been a Republican. Details matter.
McWalkerson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/29/21
I’m not sure what happened here, but I could scarcely get through it. Suddenly, this podcast about a dead/murdered prosecutor turned into some jailhouse mythology about some bank-robbin’ holy man. It’s definitely not my thing or anything I signed up for. It felt like a bait-and-switch. The worst...Read full review »

It was stated that James Comey was a Republican he was and is a Democrat.
