Way too worried about being “politically correct”, “lgbtq friendly”. Good grief. Just tell the story. Stop with terms like “self identified”. One is either or one is not. Heterophobic.

Hard for me not to think maybe someone law enforcement is not involved because this many mistakes don’t just happen without someone trying to cover something up. Thank you for me finding this podcast due to a TV show showing the story. My heart goes out to the family. They have lost these...Read full review »

Nothing more to say!

How can anyone listen to this woman’s voice for more than a minute? It is very disturbing. Or is it AI- can’t tell. Whatever or whoever it is sounds like a robot.

The Fall Line is an excellent podcast because it does not seek to sensationalize a crime but presents it in a respectful way with regard to their victims. Money given on Patreon goes for counselling of the victim’s family who appear on the podcast. Host Laurah Norton’s heart is in the right place.

Very impressed!

Absolutely fantastic! I listen to all the true crime pods, and this one is defining its own genre in my opinion. Years from now this will be the “serial” of victim first true crime. Just amazing!

Is this AI generated? The narration seems very unnatural. So much so that I can’t focus on the story. Not sure I’m going to get through this.
AceoftheIsland via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/28/24
Re-doing my review. I really like this show. Lots of work goes into these cases, and Laurah and Brooke put so much time and energy in. Spotlighting cases that really need that light shining on them. They also talk to people who have boots on the ground in searches for missing people. Very...Read full review »

Fallline covers some very poignant journeys of ppl that have been lost to their family and community . FL always provides the backstory thoughtfully.

I happen to adore Laurah’s comforting voice but more importantly, the care she and her team take with each case they cover. They’re doing the hard, important work and making a real difference while doing it. I’ve been a huge fan since the start.
Yeahsureokay478 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/24
Laurah brings empathy, humility, and expert research to each case she covers. It’s truly another level of true crime podcasting. This is the kind of show that the genre needs right now. -tz

I’m not even from this region of the US but I greatly appreciate the attention to detail and heart for the victims.
aMeghanMoment via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/24
I liked the episode of the fall line that I listened to except that the host sounds like she is AI. It really depersonalizes storytelling.
KKBloomquist via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/06/24
The reading by the host sounds unnatural. The pauses (or lack of), the lisping and the almost monotone reporting, is brisk and awkward. I actually really want to listen but am so distracted by how swift the info is coming at me that I cannot “settle in” to hear what the reader is reporting. I’m...Read full review »

I have been a fan of The Fall Line for years and years. It continues to do amazing things and touch my heart. Laurah and Brooke are doing such important work. Everyone will learn something from listening. Thank you for what you do.
rayray2244 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/24
There has to be a way to enhance the narrators voice to take out the lisping & make it have a normal cadence. Unlistenable as is.
NannyRA70’ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/24
Move learned so much from listening to this. It’s changed the way I consider missing person cases. It’s giving me context to appreciate how/why cases to or don’t get attention. It’s not “political”. But it’s reality. It’s also helped me appreciate how much work goes into closing cases. And...Read full review »

I like true crime but I don’t think politics belongs in this space. Why make it seem that every case doesn’t get attention because of the race of the victims? Why focus on the stereotypes? Would be better if you’d just stick with the facts and not imply or excuse anything.
Rebecca_N_Austin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/23
I was excited to find a podcast with so many episodes but I just can’t get past the ‘voice’.
Jennifer R via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/22/23
I love this podcast! I have lived in Nashville, my entire life. As a native of the area, it makes it much more interesting when you recognize street names or are somewhat familiar with the case. She gives complete information without dragging it on with (what I think is) irrelevant...Read full review »

RROMERO89 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/23
I don’t normally write reviews, but this is such a great concept for a podcast that I hope the producers will eventually listen to the reviews and fix the narration to attract more listeners. The narrator is “robotic” and a bit monotone, but the biggest problem for me is that they have a very...Read full review »

I was in that area 3 month’s and visited a convenience store near by. Always with 4-5 young men/boys inside. They were skinny with shaven heads chin hair and the meanest eyes. I would leave quickly. I don’t knowtheir history trauma no dad mom having two jobs since they made less. Seemed very...Read full review »

I agree with other reviewers that the robotic voice is off putting, otherwise love the show. And as another commenter said, the episodes should be longer.
marylamb1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/23
Episode 1 of the murder of Travis’s Smith was dragged out to the extreme. For example, when the host was talking about Travis’s Twitter posts on the night he was murdered she talked for ages about the difficulty they had in finding his tweets. On and on about how Twitter works, and how hard it...Read full review »

Great podcast. I love how the story flows so easily. Can you remove the subscription only episodes from the unplayed list? It's hard to know which ones I've listened to and which ones I haven't. Keep up the good shows!!Read full review »

AI?
Is this an AI generated podcast? This person‘s voice sounds like it’s a guy. For that reason I am out I do not support AI and the circumstances. Pay a voice actor would you? This makes me crazy. Bye-bye.
kfigluc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/25/23
But man…..can the narrator go oooooonnnnn foooorrreeevvveeerrr. Would be kind of ok’ish if she didn’t sound a bit robotic. Allowing the interviewees to tell their stories with the narrator simply filling in the gaps would be preferable but will still listen as the stories themselves are...Read full review »

I am obsessed with all things true crime and my favorite thing is when the research dives so deep you’re going to find all the juicy details here with the fall line. Amazing research, community outreach, and STANDING UP FOR THE MARGINALIZED VICTIMS. 10/10
tarottyler via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/22/23
Thank you for bringing awareness to so many cold case that have been forgotten! Their families still miss their loved ones and having no one being held accountable just deepens the pain.
arleneharbison via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/23
Sadly all the episodes are gone. They started disappearing about a month ago and are now no longer listed in Apple Podcasts.
LibraryAine via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/30/23
For me to stick with any podcast I have to warn to the narrator,in this case it’s easy,I really like her voice and style. It so happens she stories are really interesting too so I’ll be staying with this one. So far so good.

Thanks so much for bringing life back to this sad and disheartening disappearance of these beautiful twin teenage girls. Sad , that their county does see the value in their lives or investigation and so thanks to your podcast and the two (Laura Coates and Page) detectives/prosecutors that...Read full review »

A quality true crime podcast with an ethical backbone. I will gladly take the ads (or pay to listen without) because I know the efforts going on behind the scenes are greater than the “inconvenience” to me as a listener. Keep up the good work!
elicoko via Apple Podcasts · Bahrain · 03/05/23
What these women do to share these stories is so important. Deemed cold cases, human lives are just forgotten. Just swept aside due to “lack of funding” or whatever the reason, it’s so amazing that a small group of people work hard to get these voices of missing/murdered people heard. Great...Read full review »

This podcast does a great job researching facts and the production of the storyline is flawless! I always enjoy!
ItsyBitsy522 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/05/23
No idea why this podcast needs an over 90 second ad with this host speaking so painfully slllloooowwwly about this one true crime case. I have no interest in this show, but it has one of the most irritating ads I have ever heard. Like maybe try speaking a bit faster, and actually maybe I don’t...Read full review »

mariod1269 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/22
This is a wonderful podcast and it is obvious that the creators are passionate about trying to bring attention to these unsolved and largely forgotten cases. Very well researched and the narration and storytelling are impeccable!
RobinFerris via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/22
Hope it continues
Davholsea via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/08/22
This is a quality podcast with meaningful topics and a fresh insight towards victims who are not given the attention they deserve due to several reasons. Just needs better audio quality for the phone interviews, please.

The introduction guitar music is so bad , but I really like the stories and the voice of the host
