Gurl I have resisted google. I want you to tell the update. What happened to that sac of poo. !! Love this podcast!

Thank you for covering Aly's case...she was a friend of my late nephew, Cody. The pathetic incel loser of trash who raped and murdered her currently lives less than a mile from me after serving his pathetic sentence of only a few years (you can easily find his current address on sex offender registry for Lynnwood, WA) I'm shocked that karma hasn't revoked his breathing privileges yet...

Leah is the best story teller and fierce advocate! Her podcast is a standout in the true crime genre! -Kiley from Prime Time Krime

So well put together, straight to the point and clearly said. The cases are not well known which is great to hear about new stories but also amazing to spread awareness about lesser known cases! Keep it up!

Love listening to Least of These! Not only does she do an absolutely amazing job researching and covering these cases but she’s amazing! - LMLM

Thank you for covering this. As a Lonoke County resident, I want everybody to hear about this miscarriage of justice. He did what any good father would do. Also, thank you for saying Lonoke right 😁

Thank you for your story on the Spencers. IMO crimes against women and children in the US are not given the weight they deserve by much of law enforcement and certainly by the justice system. No contact orders and orders of protection are dependent on the person served with the orders respecting the law when they have, in all probably, already broken laws and thus shown they don’t respect the law. We need to do better to protect the public. I stand with Aaron Spencer and as a mother of four girls and grandmother to 8, I would absolutely have done exactly as he did. Excellent show.

Is that a sneaky way to declare that you are saying the opposite of Black Lives Matter? And trust and believe white victims are not “the least of these” they get covered ALL THE TIME! White people make up the largest group of murder victims, so if you want to cover “the least” then cover the missing Indigenous women, not white women.

I’ve been a faithful listener to true crime podcasts since its beginning. This is truly one of the best true crime podcast there is and I consider myself qualified to make this statement. The story’s chosen to tell are so incredible and not the same ones you hear being told over and over. Which some podcasters fall into that pit, not this one. Keep up what you’re doing truly better than crime junkie and I’ve been following them since their first podcast. This is right next to my sword and scale, and Invisiblechoir…. Of course we can all appreciate dateline and 20/20 but they have nothing on this show. Oh and BTW- PEOPLE SHE IS FRIENDS WITH BMTC HOST NOTHING ABOUT THESE TWO shows IS SIMILAR. Please stop trying to find something negative to say just bc she mentions the friend-ship .. it’s just annoying and simply says you know nothing about either show. MOVE ON FROM THAT AND TAKE A LISTEN!

Practice the script before recording!! Think about what your saying first and how your saying the sentence!! Can’t listen anymore Slow dow stop trying to rap!

This is being written to debunk the claim that this podcast host is trying to emulate the host of Big Mad True Crime. I personally cannot stand listening to Big Mad True Crime, I’ve tried a few times and she is just way too obnoxious for my taste. There is zero arrogance or any similar behavior displayed by host of The Least of These. Here, you will find a well written, informative, fluidly spoken story each and every time. Thank you, Least of These, your hard work and dedication are noticed and appreciated.

Feels like she’s trying to copy Heather Ashley from Big Mad TC but it’s a good pod. Just wish she’d try to be more original. UPDATE - She’s clearly still trying to be HA. Now she talks after the episode about her thoughts on the case just like Heather recently started doing. Heather does a ridiculously drawn out series and now she does. Just be yourself and do your own thing!!! You are good at what you do and don’t need to rip someone else’s style off.

It’s sad and disappointing that a show with a title based on a Biblical parable should get an explicit rating. It doesn’t need one. I can’t listen to this

Very good episodes told by a fabulous host. Thank you !

Full of righteous indignation and pseudo outrage over her inability to think deeply about complex topics. Gets upset at her own faulty assumptions and surface level (mis)understanding of the law. It appears she’d rather be upset/mad than apply any semblance of critical thinking to the nuances of multifaceted and convoluted topics. Poor story telling without any redeeming qualities.

Just found this a few weeks ago. Love it for all the reasons others have listed. My particular favorite is when she goes off on some criminal or some legal decision that makes no sense. ***** 5 stars

I’m so glad I found this show! She covers lesser-known cases with a mixture of sensitivity and sass. I love the factual storytelling mixed with editorial asides that totally say what we are all thinking. Keep up the great work!

Total victim advocate! She tells it like it is and I love it! Can’t wait to meet you at Crimecon 2024! **buckle up buttercup!**

Big Mad Media’s attempt at replicating Big Mad True Crime. Same lame writing attempting to be clever and eDgY, but it’s cringy. The hosts sing-songy/odd cadence is so off-putting and distracting. I tried several episodes that looked interesting and I couldn’t finish any of them.

I stumbled upon this podcast about a year ago while searching for true crime stories, and it has exceeded all my expectations. Leah’s storytelling is not only compelling but also respectful and thorough in its research. Each episode leaves me on the edge of my seat, eager to hear what story she will cover the following week. What sets this podcast apart is its authenticity. Leah delves deep into each case, presenting all the facts without sensationalizing or glorifying the crimes. It's evident that she has a genuine passion for true crime and a deep respect for the victims and their families. Overall, this podcast is a must-listen for any true crime enthusiast. It's informative, engaging, and leaves you wanting more after each episode. Highly recommend!

I understand what other comments are saying about the way she speaks, but it’s easy to get past if you just keep listening. I just listened to the 4 parter on Marisela Botello and I was blown away. First of all, this podcast is refreshing because it’s cases we aren’t often told about. I follow 59 different true crime podcasts and they all tell the same stories. Not this one!! Secondly, she really deep dives (I mean four parts on a person that isn’t infamous like Jack the Ripper is kind of unheard of) and really fills you in. Thirdly, she gives excellent recaps on her multi part episodes. In conclusion, just accept her delivery and give her and the victims she discusses the attention and respect they all deserve.

I love the little personality that you put into your podcast and the little zingers!!!😂⚡️👊🏻 💥👍🏻✌🏻&❤️

It’s the annoying sing-song delivery that just can’t let me listen. It could be good, if it were narrated like a normal person would speak.

Sounds like AI or some other technology reading this- interesting and important topic but maybe get a real person to do the podcast

I just discovered this podcast and have been bingeing all of the episodes. I listen to dozens of true crime podcasts but I love that this one covers a lot of cases I’ve never heard before.

I truly enjoy Leah and her podcast. I enjoy her style of storytelling and her interjections… they’re always right on time. I also appreciate the podcast isn’t full of profanities! While I’m not a prude, it’s a huge turn off for me to hear profanity every other word! I can’t speak to the other comments about Leah not being herself; however, maybe this is her being herself! Keep doing what you do Leah! The victims and their families are given another platform to spread the victim’s story to even more people. Thank you!

The up and down of sentences that seem to run on and always end in the tone of a question… is rather annoying. Zero emotion. I also agree with 90% of the comments about the host trying to be like Heather Ashley - I would imagine that both being under “Big Mad Media” means they do know each other. Even the way this podcast goes directly into ads with no warning, just music - the same as BMTC. Content is great, I hope the host can be less like Heather and more like herself. And for the love of God stop using the same monotone voice for every sentence.

A lot of lesser known cases and she is easy to follow and listen to!

Cant go wrong with any Big Mad Media production. Great stories great awareness no nonsense. Least of These is no exception!

Love the different cases you cover. Thanks for sharing cases that most people won’t.

I found this podcast not too long ago and have binged them all! Very detailed and thorough, she’d also easy to relate to.

I recently stumbled upon this podcast n I already binged listened to all her episodes I really like this and BMTC both podcasts get straight to the point love the content 💙🪬

I listen to you on my way to and from work everyday. It is amazing!

Now there are stupid religious Ads, get that crap out of the show!

Leah should ge more of herself. She seems to mimic Heather Ashley a lot. You do a good job and bring good awareness. Just be you!😇

Leah Dee is my hero. The episode about the death in the county jail is heart wrenching and so well done!! She absolutely is outraged by the treatment of the victim and I was right there with her. How many people in earth care this much about strangers?!?! Leah does!! She always tells a compelling story and makes the victim the most important person. I love this podcast. Keep it up Leah!!

The work Leah Dee does to give these victims and their families, voices, is incredible. The world needs 1,000 Leah Dee’s.

Just found this podcast & im glad I did. You got my support

love her voice (I know that’s the weirdest thing to say..but, hey as a podcast listener I like a comforting voice) such a good podcast!

I was introduced to Least of These by way of BMTC and I’m thankful!! You covered the case of Alicia Fox which is from my hometown of Detroit, MI. This is the only podcast that I know of that covered that case and I appreciate you for that. Keep telling the stories of those that need it! You’re doing great work.

She gets straight to the point. No banter. No long conversations. She tells you the facts! That’s what I look for in a true crime podcast. I love this podcast and I look forward to it every time she posts a new episode! You’re doing a great job! Keep it up!

When I want something short but good, this is it.

No fluff, I really love this show!

Leah really cares about the victims and getting their stories out there. She highlights the lesser known cases. Highly recommend!!

I recently stumbled up on your show and, I’ve been binging since! I’m currently listening to the JRC episodes and, as a mother of an autistic child it not only saddens me but, sickens me to my core! I’ve never heard of this facility so Thank You sooooo much for taking the time to bring this evil to light! This has been a truly difficult story to hear and, I can only pray that we can get them shut down!

So good! Every episode heard!

I love your podcast and how you put your heart into each episode. You truly speak for the victims of the crimes committed against them. Keep doing what you’re doing. Love from Texas.

Love your candor and your passion! Also your phrases like “gag a maggot” bring levity to the tragedy and make me feel like I’m talking to my mom. Keep up your amazing work.

Her outrage over non existent issues Tangents ( note:: addicts may behave irrational ) Criticizes random people because something bad happened & Dull

I love listening to Least of These! I discovered Leah from another True Crime podcast a couple of months ago and haven’t stopped listening since.. I’ve been backtracking and going through all the old episodes to listen, her passion for those who have passed and comical wit are keeping me tuned in!
