“This is a great podcast and will really get you into the lives of those involved! Don’t pay any attention to the idiots mentioning Neils former book. It was his research into the pick up artist community! People should get their heads out of their a**es!”

“The insensitivities should to cultural differences and painting an immigrant mother as a monster is truly disgusting. I was fascinated about this podcast, and was SHOCKED by Susan Parks rebuttal. Please google her rebuttal to this podcast before you listen. These podcasters should be ashamed of...”Read full review »

“Considering Neil’s past behavior, exploiting women, cheating, his awful books, I don’t buy into this pretend concern for these missing women. I had no idea until I looked into him. Just gross! I’m out !”

“Update:
Why are you releasing old episodes? Weird.
I think this was a really, really good podcast. Compelling story that was wrapped up neatly in the end. I did think at times the host was more interested in “the story” than the people but it’s still well done.”

“Exactly what a true crime investigation docu should be!! These aren’t cold cases so Neil (journalist) and Jayden (private investigator) are pretty much involved from the beginning. They get incredible access to, and even develop their own, witnesses and evidence and insider info from law...”Read full review »

The investigative journalism in real time from both seasons is phenomenal. The way the stories are told and...”Read full review »

“At the end, I truly feel the mother did not do it. Though she is a bad mother/person, this is unethical journaling and has likely fully destroyed her life.
Also, just found out the host is the author of a disgusting, mysoginistic book about seducing and picking up women, particularly by...”Read full review »

“Please don’t forget this isn’t a story that should be carried out as a fictional one. This is a victim who has suffered and deserves justice. It seems the podcast cares more about the entertainment aspect of it. It seems at times quite exploitive.”

“This season was a mess. The story telling felt manipulative. When there was no real suspect this motley crew of investigators (PI not included) turned suspicion on to her mother. Made a son essentially turn against his mother for a short time and had my shaking my head at the sloppiness of the...”Read full review »

“This podcast was so exploitative. Calling a fiancée the day her bf kills himself and just playing the whole interview. It was gross and exploitative.
Just absolutely awful. The host has some weird complex to even be able to make those calls but then to publish them for the world. Just disgusting.”

“Neil Strauss is a con man with a long history of manipulation. Throughout much of the series Neil inserts himself into an investigation manipulating facts and information to create the narrative he wants. This man has no business in true crime and causes more harm than good.”

“The storytelling was interesting and I have to admit I was hooked the whole time. But in the end I felt it was very much like a tabloid and a real tragedy was treated like a reality tv show. Just because something takes place in LA, does it have to be so cheap?”
