I really enjoy this podcast. The host doesn’t shy away from controversial topics and isn’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers. A heads-up if you’re sensitive: he can be quite outspoken, and occasionally says things that make me roll my eyes, but more often than not, I find myself agreeing with him. That aside, the podcast is incredibly informative. The host is sharp, keeps the narrative on track, and often asks the exact questions you’re thinking. A must-listen for true crime fans.
