Great reporting, important topic, but not enough content

“I really enjoyed this podcast and the honest, genuine care that went into the reporting and relationship building with those involved. I enjoyed listening all the way through season 1. However, I found myself constantly frustrated by the lack of forward, momentum, story development, and ultimately content to be reported on. At times, I felt the podcast’s main goal was to use Jermain’s case to educate on the experience of indigenous peoples, other times it seems like it was trying to be a riveting true crime show. It felt like it was everything and nothing at the same time. I think I would have preferred it more if it tried to be more consistent with what it was trying to be. Once I was finished with all the episodes , I didn’t feel like I knew much more than I did after episode 3/4, like it didn’t have the content to make 8 or so episodes, but did so anyway. This was especially apparent with the fact that the investigator literally says the same exact thing each and every time he is interviewed, making me wonder why it was included so much? I think the whole idea that this was a short amount of content dragged out over a whole season is encapsulated in the recurring “puzzle piece” comparison that the officer uses over and over.
Loved the podcast but wondered why I spent so much time going on circles about the same handful of facts. Wishing nothing but the best to the family as they navigate this incredibly hard situation and thank you to all of those who put energy into getting Jermain’s story out.”

“Connie starts of stating that North America was stolen from natives. I overlooked that statement to see if podcast was otherwise good. I didn’t listen very long. It was boring. But I stopped listening when she refers to a white law enforcement officer as a settler. I can’t trust her to relay the...”Read full review »

“This was a great podcast. The only issue I had was the condescending tone in which Connie spoke with the detective working her case. It’s horrible to take out anger on the only person who continues to work the case. Where was all this outrage when Jermain was playing house as a teen?! When she...”Read full review »
