Wow. Season 2 is when the podcast transcends

Wow. Season 2 is when the podcast becomes about more than innocence and guilt. It really transcends all of that to be about family, redemption, connection, what it means to be human.

Seasons 1&2 excellent reporting

I just finished seasons 1&2. Excellent reporting about Michelle and Leo Schofield. I cannot believe you made me emphasize with a murderer but you did. I hope Jeremy was able to see his son. I used to think people were weird for writing to prisoners they don’t know, I totally understand it now and I’m glad Jeremy had that woman in his life for a little bit.

Moving, human and inspiring

Couldn’t stop listening to this podcast. Every character, no matter how flawed, becomes real and human. Kindness and pain mix together to make an intoxicating narrative. Bravo!

Good podcast

But hearing Darra say she loves Trump gave me the ick. Maybe edit that out.

Amazing

Wow I’m so impressed. It was expertly done alright. Mr King you have magic for writing and your voice is just perfect. What a story and glad you could be the one to narrate thank you.

Best podcast I’ve listened to, EVER! At times it moved me to tears. Expertly done, great narration, and painted a complete picture. Hope hope, hope, this gets turned into a Netflix documentary; exactly as it’s done in the podcast, word for word. Not reimagined, but with the interviews as they’re done in the podcast as to put a face and image to the cast of characters. Also, the song is awesome, catchy and I caught myself singing along during the intro.

Fantastic

This podcast blew me away. The way the hosts unpacked the murder of Michelle Scoffield and revealed the shocking truth about Jeremy Scott was both heartbreaking and fascinating. It’s one of the best true crime podcasts I’ve ever listened to. Leo’s heart is pure and I’m shocked he was not exonerated earlier.Check out the Taylor Cadle interview with Polk County police. SHOCKING

Absolutely amazing

Huge fan. Not sure why it’s only a 4.9 stars. Definitely a 5 star podcast. The heart you 2 put into this is absolutely beautiful. I cried, i laughed, i cursed out loud. I felt empathy for someone that I never thought I would. Definitely a powerful podcast!

Maggie Freling

Good story, good story telling. But why does Maggie smile while delivering chilling, disturbing details of the story? She sounds like a maniac. What a weird habit. It’s disorienting as a listener and makes her hard to trust.

Good but went downhill

Liked season 1, and season 2 was also interesting and engaging and very unique. I appreciated that the podcasters cared about the people so much too. But that’s not in season 3. Season 3 is just impossible to follow. Needs an editor who knows how to put an understandable story together. Had to unfollow, sigh.

I will never buy Digiorno

Love this podcast but wow was it tough to have to listen to that guy selling Digiorno. I don’t want to be mean or rude but sometimes it has to be said. If Digiorno had kept it to a 15 second ad slot and changed up the copy between the ads it would have been better… instead all I know is as soon as that guy starts with his script about his podcast voice I skip, skip ahead. I don’t even mind listening to the MS or Alzheimer ads (both very depressing). That means this ad for pizza (!) must truly be horrible. Also, if Digiorno could have positioned the ad copy to be more focused on highlighting ingredients, convenience and affordability I may have been interested to remember Digiorno exists. Instead they put down restaurants which I feel like is sort of bizarre. Digiorno’s only selling proposition is you don’t have to go to a restaurant to buy this product? I don’t have to go to a restaurant to buy pizza as is and with Digiorno I have to go to the grocery store frozen section where the lights may or may not flick on as I enter the aisle and I might die of hypothermia if I hang out too long.

Decent

Good reporting - jus the style of the story telling is done in a very staccato fashion making it a little hard to listen to at times. Smooth out the narration and it’d be great!

Bone Valley : WOW!!!

We listen to a lot of true crime and this is one of the best ones we’ve ever heard. This is a story that will touch your heart on multiple layers. The amount of investigation that went into this is astounding, and the storyline has lots of twists and turns. I’m recommending this to all my friends who are into true crime.

Deep. Beautiful. Inspiring.

This story is hard - sad, emotional, heartbreaking. But the way Gilbert and his team deliver this story is incredible. This podcast is deep; I’ve cried, laughed, gasped and smiled throughout. Overall it’s a beautifully produced show by people who are truly making a difference.

Top Notch

Any work by Maggie Freleng is well done and professional. After listening to at least half a dozen of her projects, I subscribe to anything she produces! ( & this is not her mom, cousin, lover, or friend lol).

I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith—as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos, it will be a home run, and so that'll make it a 4–0 ballgame.
