I’ve been listening to Crime Junkie for years, and I truly love everything about this podcast. I know some people criticize Brit for asking questions, but that’s actually one of the things I enjoy most — it feels natural, like I’m part of a real conversation, and she asks the same questions I find myself wondering.
I’ve also seen people mention “politics,” but I’ve never heard the show get political at all. Ashley and Brit stay focused on the stories, the victims, and raising awareness. I appreciate that their priority is always about honoring the cases and keeping listeners engaged.
And as for the podcast being “scripted” — of course it is! That’s what makes it flow so smoothly. Ashley’s research is thorough, well-organized, and respectful, and the format keeps the storytelling clear and powerful. It never feels fake or forced; it feels intentional and well-prepared.
This podcast has been a staple in my life for years, and I love being part of the fan club community. Thank you Ashley and Brit for everything you do — your passion and dedication shine through every episode.
P.S. no one is holding you hostage and forcing you to listen if you dont like it ? 😂
