Listener Reviews

This has been my favorite crime podcast since the very first episode. I’m re-listening to all the old episodes now because I just cannot get enough!

I’m a local truck driver. I work 12-14hrs a day. I got tired of listening to my Apple Music, which I thought I’d never do, started listening to podcasts (which I thought I’d never do). Anyway, I started listening to CJ about a week ago. I have found Ashley very interesting to listen to. It keeps me interested. Now for the time I’m in my truck, this is all I listen to. It helps the miles to pass quicker since I run most of my miles at night and do not have anyone to talk to at night. I started at the first episode and am currently in August of ‘18. Also, I don’t not and have never liked reading, but the way Ashley delivers her book “the missing hat” makes me want to buy it

Guys I love yalls show. I have been listening religiously, since July 2025 I have listened to everything back to 2020 and I love it. But good lord I feel like we’re getting too woke here. I mean “unhoused”? And all the blurts on women’s right or politics or whatever it is. I love your show that’s just not what I come to Crime Junkie to hear ya know?

OMG I LOVE YOUR PODCAST! I literally listen every single day , sometimes more then once and more then one episode. I love the research you do and the way your minds work. I have to get my daily fix of Crime Junkie 😉

I just listened to the MISSING: Alicia Navarro episode from a few years ago… as a kid who grew up on the internet and has discord and games, this shook me to the bone. I literally just ran to my mom and told her about this episode, and we worked together to put parental controls on my discord! hopefully this will help me stay safe online, especially as a kid who also has autism spectrum disorder <3

It means a lot to me and I’m sure others the way you handle this topic with compassion and grace. Thank you

I listened to every episode. Love the stories:) looking forward to the future episodes ^_^

Amazing work girls. Us girls rule the world so change nothing for the hater’s

My favorite show!

I’m a new listener but I have been binging so many episodes. I am obsessed with your channel now. 🫶🏻

I started to listen to crime junkie when I use to travel for work now I listen as I take a walk at a park. The coverage on cases is amazing. The call to action is appreciated. The advocacy is heartwarming. The cases selection is also important. Crime junkie acknowledge it’s part in making sure those cases that might not be covered are covered. I am up-to-date on episodes and have started to listen from episode one again.

Love

Ashley and Brit, I’ve found your podcast during very difficult time in my life. In August last year my fiancé, my best friend, had a stroke. We used to stay up late and talk for hours. Now she has aphasia and can’t hold a normal conversation. A lot of our time together in the beginning was spent in silence. I found your podcast shortly after her stroke and it’s become part of my daily routine to listen to you guys mainly during cooking dinner but sometimes on our longer commutes. Today I realized that I have only 4 episodes left and that’s left me extremely sad but also compelled to leave you this message…Thank you for giving me something to look forward to listening to everyday. Your voices have filled the silence in a way for over 230 days. So much so that I’ll kind miss you guys lol. Now I’ll have to look forward to hearing your podcast once a week.❤️

I’ve been recently listening daily while working and I’m obsessed. I love the investigative reporting and you can tell the hosts are passionate about justice.

Thank you ladies for all your hard work!

What I enjoyed most about Crime Junkie is how easy it is to follow even when the cases are very complex. The hosts do a good job explaining details clearly while still making the stories feel interesting and emotional. Nothing was too confusing, but some cases were definitely disturbing or intense. The use of background music and storytelling structure makes the episodes feel engaging and dramatic. One thing that stood out was how the podcast focuses on victims and keeping their stories remembered. The episodes also made me think more about how many cases remain unsolved for years.

I decided to start listening a few days ago and now can’t stop listening, I google every case while listening for updates as I am still on the 2018 episodes to see pictures of the people and to see if maybe someone like Robert Fisher is my neighbor or co worker or something and while this is all tragedy it’s also completely mind boggling and entertaining(for lack of better words). Thank you for the good work yall do on this podcast and hopefully we can get some of these cases closed thanks to your work and the inquiring minds

I have been a fan and listener for years. One big reason is because you have left out political opinions. I noticed the strong political stance during the Sweeten episode. Please leage out the opinions and stick to the crime show only. Thank you so much !!

2026 updated: been rockin with Ash & Brit for quite some time now, proudly. They have helped so many people along the way, and the growth is inspiring. Still loving the crime junkies 🩵💛🧡OLD: Can’t go wrong with a crime junkie episode, been listening for a year or so, and definitely part of my routine now. Thanks ladies! Xo

I love listening to this stuff. I love this stuff so much! I can’t say it enough times, I love this podcast! It keeps me busy because at family gatherings, I am the only one in my family that is 12 and this is a great thing to keep keep me busy!!!

Never got into listening to podcasts until I found this one. Now I listen to this podcast EVERY chance I get!!

I really love this show but I honestly struggle with the second host. She is just so Captain Obvious or just has so many reachy things to say just to say something at all.

The recent episodes seem to have a skipping issue at certain points; either rewinding or forwarding at random. Anyone else noticing this?

Best crime podcast in the game can you wonder people cover the Kristen Galvan case.
