Misinformed & Unwilling to Listen
In the episode from August 2, 2019, titled: “Tammy McKittrick: A Likely Story,” the podcast host tells the story of a missing woman…but according to the family members, he has his information wrong, and to take it further, he never tried to reach out to multiple family members to get a well-rounded account before creating this episode, which absolutely baffles me—that seems like step 1 for any legit podcast. One of the daughters, 7 years old when her mother went missing, and now an adult, is doing her own digging. The family, obviously, would like answers and closure. After reaching out to Unfound’s host, the host was unwilling to speak with the daughter/family, unwilling to correct the misinformation, and unwilling to remove the episode. If the family does not want this episode out there, and if it could potentially harm future investigating, one would think the host would want to be helpful in those endeavors. At the very least, he should respond to the family and have a conversation with them—he instead responded to a Facebook message to say: “I will not be responding.” It’s unprofessional, at best. I’m reviewing this podcast as a “1-star” to at least help get this particular episode removed. To be honest, if he’s capable of treating one case in this manner, who knows what else he is willing butcher in his quest of podcast fame and money. Entertainment is well and good, but you have to care about the people and families of which you report…otherwise, you’re just reckless and selfish.

Ed has a great podcast to try to bring awareness to missing person cases. He really cares about his guests and trying to bring the missing home!

Your work is truly appreciated in letting people know about the missing and trying to help to get the information get out about the public
