Meh
So the story is good. What’s not good is playing really horrible audio interviews from EVERYONE who ever lived in the city. I don’t know why so many podcasts play these awful old audiotapes. Stop it! And this particular show, interviews waaaayyyyyy too many people, multiple times. This just...Read full review »

This podcast isn’t like any other. Olivia does a great job making you truly realize the humanity in all involved not just the victims. Shedding light on these stories being real people and this kind of addiction is so important and makes you truly understand the victims. I have cried several...Read full review »

This is one of the saddest stories I’ve ever heard. It’s also a beautiful story because out of this tragedy, the mothers developed a strong bond and friendship that will last for the rest of their lives. You can tell that they truly love each other. Excellent work on reporting the facts of this...Read full review »

Hooked from the start!

You did a great job with this. I was hooked and I hope you do another case.

Great job! Had me captivated in all episodes! Great research and story telling.
Itsalgood68 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/24
Olivia is a phenomenal researcher and reporter. I hope this is the first of many podcasts. She allowed all voices to be heard, sparing no questions to get much needed answers. Incredible investigating. Also, thank you for consistently uplifting the “moms” throughout the journey. I can’t imagine...Read full review »

Olivia has sensitively covered this complex and tragic case. What an absolute roller coaster! Thank you for your diligence, commitment and care in bringing us this important and harrowing story.

The only thing I can think about right now is that I have a friend that is going through the process of getting a new car and so I need to get a car so I don’t know what the next steps will

I loved it. I’ve been looking for something that grabs my attention and this was it. Looking forward to more.
Kiwi Murt via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/05/24
This podcast would have been so much better if it was 8 episodes. I understand the moms were super involved but there was way too much of the same dialogue and exploring all of their thoughts, many of which we’ve already heard multiple times in one way or another. I also got very confused at...Read full review »

Listen to both ur podcasts Olivia and I was hooked U tell the stories from start to finish, keeping me wanting to keep listening I’m always checking to see if u have any new ones out

Loved the reporting on this podcast - very unbiased. Matt Queen’s narcissism and (to me) obvious guilt shone through all his lies. God bless those mothers and I hope one day they all have a resolution that feels satisfying. Highly recommend.

I’m only on episode 6 but felt inclined to write a review! This podcast is so well done and Olivia’s talent is undeniable. Each episode is intriguing and never bogged down with unnecessary filler. I especially appreciate the individual episodes dedicated to each victim and felt the care put into...Read full review »
tkaeee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/24
My only complaint was that sometimes an episode would jump back and forth in the timeline and not specify it was doing so, so I had to take a couple of seconds to reorient myself to where we were in the story. Otherwise, good coverage of a local saga. (Yes, I live in Bako.)
LeoFlash via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/24
I loved this podcast series! Absolutely captivating. I was so engaged from episode 1 and binged this series.
LizzyWill via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/30/24
Your story telling captivated me. Although this is a terribly tragic story I was completely hooked from the 1st episode. I could not stop listening. I needed to know what happened. I went through many emotions when listening including tears and feelings of overwhelming sadness My heart breaks for...Read full review »

I’ve listened to hundreds of true crime series podcasts and this was a great series! Interesting story and very well done! It’s a unique story told from a unique angle, definitely stands out among all the others. I’m so glad this story was told for the moms! I hope they get more answers.
EvaB4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/25/24
This is a compelling mystery. Olivia is good to listen to. I love the episodes centering the moms. I find the idea that anyone is listening to the killer, putting any credence into his claims, confusing. I hope he is in captivity for life. My critique is that giving this bad actor so much...Read full review »
Eartha2024 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/25/24
I didn’t feel like there was much to hook us into caring about the people involved unfortunately and then so many details I lost track and interest. I hope the families have peace.
MrsAdams2007 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/24
Well done, Olivia! I binged this entire podcast in 2 work days. Please do more podcasts! And please do update episodes on the BK3.
Burdpoop via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/15/24
I struggled to really follow this story because there is so much filler and repeated information. I also feel like the story jumps around a lot so it’s hard to keep all the details straight.
CCD3700 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/06/24
I love, love, love this podcast. Olivia, please continue to make more podcasts! You are such a talented writer and reporter. I love how you delicately convey truth and fact and showcased the families raw emotions without exploiting those feelings. There was so much time and thought put into your...Read full review »

I think you have done an amazing service for these cases and you have honoured these victims and their mothers. Brought me to tears on several occasions
isthispasswordy via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/21/24
I enjoyed this podcast. However, it could have been half the number of episodes. I disliked the amount of repeat information that kept getting re-discussed.
Vitamin_me via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/24
Host makes story too much about herself
Big pun 5eva via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/11/24
I loved this podcast! At the end I was super bummed that the SIM card information is incorrect leaving me with more questions. My phone was acting up and I requested a new card and put it in one of the 5 phones on my account. All the phones in my account have SIM cards registered to me but...Read full review »
Verno1gam via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/24
Just give us the case. Way too much time spent on the enabling mothers. Especially Bailee’s mother (Jane). She has completely lost her grip on reality and while it is sad, I certainly don’t think your listeners deserved to be bombarded with her bumbling delusions over and over again throughout...Read full review »
bogey machine via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/06/24
Told well and keeps you wanting more. The way the mothers came together and their stories were super powerful. Horrible circumstances but great journalism.
duhdeedeeduh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/24
Agggh! Droned on way too long with irrelevant details and convolutions … my main take away from the entire thing was that Queen is a lying sociopath and psycho bumbling idiot who should rot in prison, or better yet be killed there. #goodriddance
ShaunClicquot via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/24
Meh
While I appreciate the journalism behind the story, the delivery wasn’t great. Lots of filler, repeated information, and wild speculation. The absolute worst part of this was Bailee’s whiny, enabling mother who did more talking than the journalist about nothing. I feel for Bailee’s sister. This...Read full review »

These brave women tell an amazing story that was so beautiful and heart warming. I have loved a lot of podcast, but this is the best! All my love to you all!

Loved this
LauBenne via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/30/24
Well done. Thank for humanizing the story. So tragic how drugs and violence led those people into an area they just couldn’t see past. My hearts goes out to their amazing mothers.

Not very interesting. A platform for people who wish they could be relevant. The author and her presentation style are fine, but the other voices and personalities were just not interesting enough. Just uninteresting, bland melodrama.
Papa Nerdy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/29/24
I never heard of this story, I was intrigued. I want to hear more but I just can’t. I don’t like the way it’s being told. I don’t like the music, I’m not at Disneyland and I feel like it’s too much for such a sad story. Even the tone of the voice is too happy. I don’t want monotone voices but it...Read full review »
frustrated crime junkie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/24
Note: Everyone experiences podcasts differently. We listen in different settings and we listen for different reasons. Ok. So I feel like this should not be classified as a true crime. Honestly, it’s just one giant McGuffin. I felt like time was stollen from me. BUT It was such an excellent...Read full review »

This story is wonderfully told.
s-jamcan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/27/24
On the first episodes you have a sense that these stories will lead to reveal a big mafia or something, but they more you listen the smaller the story gets. Turns out everything is pretty simple and could’ve been told in an hour or too. Felt like I’ve spent all my time waiting for a bombastic...Read full review »
John Fellow84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/24
Too many unnecessary details and fluff. Music was semi cheerful and upbeat for a true crime podcast.
CornPoker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/24
I loved the way she told the story. There’s everything to the story very movie like hard to believe it really happened
JOSE412163 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/23/24
This could of been condensed into a lot less episodes. There was a lot of filler information or information withheld about the 3. The length of the episodes were to short.
SamWach via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/24
This could have been 5-6 episodes. Way too much detail and attempt to weave a story. We don’t need to know about what color shirt people were wearing at the trial, or how the reporter acted… sooooooo long. Kept waiting for the bombshell. The only redeeming quality is Olivia does seem very...Read full review »
dollycat21 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/24
Olivia LaVoice - I am just on the first episode but hearing you speak of your compulsive need to break a story first and the lengths you would go to make me feel weak. It comes across as almost perverse, as though you don’t really seem to care about the atrocities or issues you’re covering and...Read full review »
ned-sanders via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/20/24
Loved this podcast! As a major crime podcast junkie this was a great deep dive into one story sharing so many details. I loved that you heard the evidence, direct quotes, and details. But what was unique is also seeing the real and raw emotions of the grief the 3 moms went through. Incredible...Read full review »
MamaAKW via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/24
I hated the way this story was edited. Olivia inserted herself too much in the story, there’s too many details that we didn’t need(ex: town hall meeting clip or the half a dozen newsroom scenes), & 15 episodes was at least 10 too many to explain what happened. It’s not worth the listen, just...Read full review »
TaiTai Baby via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/18/24
Very thorough in reporting, and explained very well, but definitely a podcast that you needed to pay attention to , bc of all the twists and turns. I loved it , but am so so sad about what these mothers have and continue to endure.
gmpe28 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/16/24
If anyone has doubts about drugs turning normal people, with pretty good lives, into people who will do anything to maintain their addiction, listen to this. These 3 well loved and privileged victims fell hard into substance use and ended up with scummy lifestyles. The narrator does a great job...Read full review »

A detailed narrative delivered with empathy, with a well spoken narrator. Would recommend this series and will keep an eye out for updates.
TattyTed2 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/14/24
Such a sad but inspiring story- these mothers have done so much for their children, each other and their community.
