Season 9 is such a compelling story but let down by the host inserting himself. Bro, no one cares that you’re an atheist or about your favorite corny song lyrics. Just tell the story. Jeesh.

I listened to season 2, 5 and 8 so many times! I love the way David Ridgen conveys each stories, his compassion and dedication. Season 9 was shorter but nonetheless very interesting and heartbreaking. Thank you for your work David! We need a season 10 !!

David Ridgen is a Canadian treasure. So glad I stumbled upon him. I’ve binged every episode of everything he has done. His humility, empathy, compassion and excellent investigative work make this podcast a must listen.

Love SKS, Been listening since the beginning. The new season is now behind a pay wall? Love the show but not enough to pay for it.

One of the best podcasts out there. Interesting and well researched.

NO ONE is better at this genre than David Ridgen. I am a fan of single story episodes on other TC podcast like sword and scale, Criminal, etc. But I definitely prefer the episodic shows where you can get invested in the story. And NO ONE is better than SMS team and David in this genre. I didn’t...Read full review »

Being self-employed, I listen to numerous podcasts as I work. This is, by far, the best I’ve come across. David’s approach is perfect for the subject matter and his tone of voice is great to listen to. It does, however, raise many questions about the police and their involvement in these crimes....Read full review »

David Ridgen is a superb journalist an incredible writer, and an incredible storyteller. His interpersonal style whilst interacting with the people involved in the investigations, keep the listener very engaged and focused. Im very happy with the new season! Look forward to new season in late 2024!

Such a well done podcast. I just binged the last season. I couldn’t turn it off. David does such an amazing job at drawing out the story!
taress345 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/31/24
I have listened to every season and I love the way David tells the stories of the victims and their families. He brings empathy and compassion to each case and he does a great job of telling the details and explaining things in a way that I find compelling. I’m always excited to hear a new season...Read full review »

Very bothered by the beat poetry styled sentences. I wish the narrator talked more like a natural person
Willow Smithson via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/24/24
I’m only on season 2, and the reporting, delivery and content is fantastic. The music at the end of each episode, especially the painful singing, is enough to cause me to cease continuing this podcast. Hoping this dreadful singing changes on upcoming seasons.

I love to learn about new geography so it was educational looking up all the places in YT. Otherwise, just meh. For me his voice is his downfall.
ksubsn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/29/24
This is the best true crime podcast on the Internet. David Ridgen is the greatest living Canadian
guillermo ernesto morales via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/15/24
I agree with what others have said, he drags it out unnecessarily with boring observations and irrelevant information.
jesscleo777 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/12/24
Best true crime podcast out there. Spoiler: not many cases are solved. They’re active cold cases, and David is re-investigating them in an attempt to aid in the families eventually finding closure. The entire ethos of the show is to keep the cases in the public consciousness, the hope being that...Read full review »

I have been eagerly listening to Someone Knows Something for years, mostly because when I first discovered David Ridgen I fell in love with his journalistic approach while remaining respectful to everyone involved. His voice is comfortable, and I also love that he covers cases in indigenous...Read full review »

Can’t handle the narrators voice
Nikky Kelley via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/19/24
I heard about this podcast on another podcast. I’m really enjoying it. I just finished season 5. One thing I really like about it is the rapport that David Ridgen builds with the family members. Especially with Sheryl Sheppard’s mom, Charles Moore’s brother, and Kerrie Brown’s brother. I hope...Read full review »
FunKyChick91 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/18/24
Whole lot of talking for not a lot of gain. Really should be called “no one knows anything”. Trudged through 5 seasons hoping we’d get clarity on cases but turns out nothing.
Meowmix6785 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/04/24
This is a must listen to if you’re a true crime podcast listener!! I’ve listened to hundreds if not thousands of true crime podcasts. This is a touching story investigated and voiced by David, a true talent! David openly discusses his battle with alcoholism with Trevor, the brother of the...Read full review »

The investigation done on this podcast is better than what the police have done in some of the stories!
QueenShe87 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/24
I love the content but the song at the start and finish is awful and creepy.
Dawnie 2000 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/25/24
I have listened to a lot of true crime podcasts over the years and this one is by far the worst. Every cardinal podcasting sin you can think of, this series commits. 30 minutes of actual true crime stretched out into 10 hours? Check. Hours of unnecessary interviews that lead to nothing? Check....Read full review »

Been listening since season 1. Thank you, David
LRSonder via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/26/24
Great show and reporting! So happy someone is taking the time to discuss these cases of missing women.
BAEH008 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/24/24
David Ridgen is an absolute gem and the crème de la crème of storytellers. These are tough, emotional, devastating stories but he approaches them with grace, tact, courage and kindness. I will be a fan for life!
hkk*73* via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/20/24
David’s heart for these families is heard in each episode. So good.
jenw12000 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/24
It’s *like* Serial but all the leads are dead ends, nothing get solved and nothing happens.
Ratt Tailey via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/21/24
I started Season 8 but had to stop when DR referred to mass graves of indigenous children. There is not one shred of evidence supporting the existence of mass graves. In fact, several sites have been excavated and nothing has been found. It calls into question all of his work. I wonder how much...Read full review »

Content was very engaging, had good amount of suspense and I love the dedication to investigate into these “somewhat cold cases.”
Eugene Duodu via Apple Podcasts · Ghana · 02/23/24
So thoroughly researched and a great format!
MonDawn11 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/20/24
Amazing and interesting content. Please please get rid of the awful song, played in full, at the end of every episode…
LouTwoToo via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/13/24
I'm completely addicted. David's reporting and investigative skills make listeners forget it's a podcast. I can visualize everything he's saying.Read full review »
Andrealeeblack via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/06/24
David Ridgen does an excellent job of capturing all aspects of a case. He throughly investigates all names that are brought up in an investigation, pushes the police and DA to continue to investigate, and get answers that have never been heard before. The cherry on top is that his story telling...Read full review »

David actually goes through the entire case detail by detail and more often than not, able to find new things and continues his work to truly make a difference in the cases he takes on. He’s always kind and describes the dogs he comes across 10/10 would recommend if you need a good show to binge
Kelsey546 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/24
Love the show. But please, what is with that awful nails on a chalkboard song.
Marshaxthree via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/16/24
Ads are more so
B3asy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/29/23
The show is wonderful and David has a gentle and kind way of dealing with victims’ families. I’m curious if the McNaughton family ever tried submitting their dna to ancestry sites. If their son/brother is still alive and doesn’t realize he was kidnapped, it could be a way to find one another.
Noompa1981 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/22/23
I’ve enjoyed listening to your shows until you decided to dip into abortion. You alienate listeners when you don’t report objectively. Isn’t that how you were trained? No one wants to know what side of politics you’re on. Knowing you support abortions is sad.

I just binged all 8 seasons while I work, I really enjoyed them all. I truly feel for all the families & people affected by these horrible crimes. And I hope this helps get Justice & closure for everyone Involved. I’ve lost family & friends to murder & it never gets easier when...Read full review »

This is a podcast that is you cannot stop listening to. Every time I go to turn it off David comes up with more questions about what could have happened to Angel. I could listen to him all day he sounds so compassionate and caring to people . Keep up the good work.
Darl06 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/29/23
David Ridgen is an excellent story teller who does not sensationalize, but humanizes the people he works with, and their loved ones. I always look forward to the work he creates.

I’ve enjoyed every season of SKS!
austenkrill via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/11/23
David Ridgen adds a different layer to every true crime investigation that he undertakes. His empathetic and respectful way of treating others is exemplary and creates an intimacy often absent in true crime stories. David gives grieving family members and friends a voice, while simultaneously...Read full review »
