    Gets Me By…
    I listen to 1-2 shows everyday. But mostly while I’m going for walks or driving during my work commute. It gets me by…

    Annie Elise for the Win!
    I am now following this podcast after watching Annie’s Babysitter nightmare on YouTube. I’m excited to listen to more and hope all the others are as good.

    Really?
    Is Ashley flowers going to be the host of this podcast moving forward? I can't stand that woman. Her voice is annoying, and she's a pick me, girl. Everyone knows she lies, cheat, steals and plagiarizes material. She's a horrible person and if she hosts podcast, I will unsubscribe.

    Entertaining, but…
    If you’re going to profile serial killers then do that. Menendez brothers were killers for sure. Murderers in fact, but not serial killers. Episodes were interesting tho, but don’t fit the theme of your series.

    Stilted and Artificial
    I wanted to enjoy this podcast, but after having attempted several old and new episodes, I could not get past the artificial and robotic narration.
  • Chase Burner
    Entertaining but full of unverified fluff
    You won’t find a more professionally sounding presentation on true crime than this one. But also you won’t find a less credible presentation. If you listen closely you will find a barrage of unchecked assumptions that are declared as fact and the tone in which they are presented is easily mistaken as fact. The complaint here is: if you’re going to present true crime cases you have to remember and honor the first word in the phrase. Hard pass.

    Menendez brothers
    I was really disappointed with this episode the way the host talked about the father. I don’t believe nothing that these psychopaths say. Show respect to the real victims the parents even having these episodes was wrong this was one of the worst episodes rehashing this is bringing two psychopaths back to the forefront. Let them stay in jail and forget about them . 🤦🏽‍♂️

    Menendez brothers
    Put too much sympathy on the abusive parents. The brothers are not serial killers they are victims
  • Yelaheener
    Interesting stories but too scripted!
    This podcast covers stories and people I’ve never heard about before since they go way back in time, sometimes centuries, which are some of my favorite episodes. Others are some common that I don’t bother to listen. The stories are clear and engaging. However, the dialogue is way too scripted and often feels fake and inauthentic, especially when guests are on and you can hear how awkward the conversation transitions are. I’d recommend a more natural storytelling style.

    Robots and Commercials
    I feel like im listening to AI pretending to be interested in a story. But thats only half the time. Because the other half is spent listening to commercials.

    This Podcast is the OG of true crime
    The one stop shop for great true crime stories.

    Hosts sound A.I generated, it’s like a boring computer is reading a story someone else wrote.
    Both hosts sound very monotone and computer like, and may very well actual be. Also, there are no interviews, no research details. Sounds like computer is reading me a story someone else wrote. Extremely boring.
  • LSD122070
    BORING
    No interviews just boring reading 🙄

    I’m going to try another listen later
    The stories are super interesting, but I first listened to the David Xu episode and the guest journalist’s incessant laughing while recounting the (legit) ATTEMPTED MURDER just skeeved me out. Like, that’s not funny? I women, who is a leader in her field, facing extreme violence at her workplace bc a man was threatened by her brilliance is sad. I understand that discomfort makes some people laugh, but the journalist was supposed to be an expert in this case, right? Superrrr weird to hear someone saying how sick another person was and just casually chuckling.

    Fantastic
    I’ve been listing to this podcast since about 2018, and the show has only improved since that first fantastic episode. The narration and storytelling is by far some of the best work I’ve listened to. Keep up the good work!
  • Keeping it !
    BRING BACK CARTER ROY
    BRING BACK CARTER ROY!!! The show is not the same without the dynamic duo…
  • Lucius M
    Only need one narrator
    Great stories, but the wooden delivery by guest male narrators distracts from the great content. Just awful. Only need the female narrator. Done

    Chris Watts victim blaming
    The Chris Watts’ episodes were incredibly hard to listen to because of how much empathy/understanding was put on Chris, but not any of his victims. Gross and in poor taste.
  • Dittyknitty
    Fodder
    Chris Watts is NOT A SERIAL KILLER! If anything he’s a mass killer and family annihilator. And you got details incorrect! The girls were not in the “same” oil tank they were in separate ones. Don’t just cover a story for sensationalism. Besides if this is your first time covering those murders you’re late and this is overdone. Move on. Vanessa you failed on this one.
  • Dude. :/
    There is to many…
    Adds and too much stuff about mental health.JUST GET TO THE POINT!!!

    Sad to have to move on
    This show used to be great. They’ve changed formats and it’s not even about serial killers anymore. Also losing one of the hosts was a bad move.

    Love this, sponsorship lacking
    Love this show but I don’t want to hear tampon commercials twice in a row. I know I can skip, but sometimes don’t get to it in time.
  • Annaevamos
    Bedtime stories?
    The host enunciates as if she was talking to children.
  • Linkylouhou
    Too many ads

    Daily Dose of SCARE
    Why wait until Halloween, when you have THIS SHOW? I've been listening to this show for years now and without fail every week I always get both entertained and scared. Every aspect of the show pulls it together, weither it's the physiological aspect or even just the voices they use to really set the sene it's all just amazing!!
  • ava-ally
    love the podcasts
    I love these podcasts! They make me fall asleep so quickly but also sends chills down my spine! It’s so fun beacuse my friends get scared of me for listening to these type of things but I love them. Keep making more!❤️

    Vanessa wow! I remember you from carcast I lived all the shows but sadly they’re all gone, no new one but glad I found you again!!

    Sensory perfection!
    The hosts’ voices are perfect for podcasting! I’m very picky about my podcasts, but it’s an easy listen, no matter the time of day. This is the first podcast I tell people about when recommending!
  • drjulesg
    This is the show for you if you don’t like…
    Like inane and vapid banter between the hosts and want just a straightforward well research narration.
  • Florida Evans
    Last Resort Podcast
    I listen to this podcast when there is absolutely nothing else to listen to. The stories are interesting but the way the host speaks is ridiculous. These are stories about real people, at least have the respect to not tell them like you’d tell a scary story around a campfire.
  • Shpuppylove
    Amazing and intriguing 🤩
    So interestng the stories, the Serial Killers themselves, and the psychology of it 😮(shocking) especially the episode "toybox killer"horrifying 😱but so well done thank you Vanessa and Greg for making this podcast 😊.
  • ericks87
    Lacking
    Episodes are short by podcast standards. About 30 minutes or so. In those 30 minutes there’s about 10 to 15 minutes of adds. So not a great podcast in my book.
  • Gt281cii
    Parcast.
    The show has taken a step back without Greg. Listened for years but now it’s stories we’ve all heard before.

    I LOVE IT

  • Gentry.Stearsman
    Good story telling
    Just started listening and will probably listen to ALL of the podcasts. Great story telling and great background information on persons and stories. This podcast is my next obsession.

    I thoroughly enjoy your podcast. Give it a five always
  • Connor Packard
    Awesome
    I’m not big on podcasts, but this one is amazing. I always listen in my free time and genuinely enjoy hearing these stories. Please keep making these episodes, I will keep listening! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
  • Bleepnop
    It’s all right
    If you have a lot of time to kill this is a good pod but if you are wanting facts not it they talk a lot about the psychology when you want the facts it’s not the right one
  • Jay Jaafar
    So good!
    They really do a great job on this podcast! Mad spooky

    Serial Killers: The Billboard
    If you are the kind of person who stops at billboards to read all of the words, then you’ve found your people. This podcast is packed full of them. Why listen to podcasts when you can just hear the same ad seventeen times. And guess what? They do it with different ads. You get four ads seventeen times. This ad is awesome. I’ll listen to the podcast part later.
  • runningintime
    Kind of torn
    I really like the straightforward documentary format, without all the wannabe stand-up comedy routines. But, wow is this thing packed with ads. I typically listen while driving, which means eaither sitting through the same cluster of ads over and over, or reaching over and skipping repeatedly..
  • lelisarabia
    This was such a great podcast
    This was SUCH a good podcast when I started listening back in 2020. I was hooked. I loved Greg and Vanessa together but it’s definitely not the same anymore. Now the episodes are much shorter and they’re just re-doing cases they’ve already done.
  • Lilburn63
    Will Trent !!! Ugh !
    This is a really good show. I would've given five stars. However, if I have to hear that one more time will Trent will Trent will Trent oh my gosh. This show is nothing but a commercial for the real TV series ASAP. So sad.
  • MandaLouRN
    5 stars
    No doubt, this is one of the best true crime podcasts!
  • Jdubski2040
    It’s alright
    Some episodes are good but then others it seems like they didn’t do any research at all.
  • NoraB1984
    Will Trent has to go 🍅🍅🍅
    So the episode starts with saying that this is a commercial free episode sponsored by Will Trent. The very next thing is a full commercial for Will Trent. Then you pepper in nonsense about Will Trent randomly throughout the entire episode during the story. Commercial free where??? This is a terrible terrible way to run ads on the show. Please go back to normal commercials. This episode was painful to listen to and I ended up just going on Wikipedia.

    Using a murder to promote a TV show is gross
    The recent episide that used a murder to promote a show on ABC is extremely disappointing. This show already demonstrates some issues with ethical true crime coverage, and this was the last straw for me. Drawing comparisons between an actual tragic murder and a fictional detective to promote a TV show? Come on. Do better.
  • Nita Claire
    Great content
    The content is in-depth and thorough but the delivery folly of hosts is to confusing and not for me.
