Annoyed
All the case notes say “if you have info about this murder call ….” Where are the interesting SOLVED cases? I can’t believe this podcast is still around, it tells nothing and all the host can say is “it’s not in my source material.” We know, you have no info - you’re just talking to talk.
STILL 5 STARS
Have loved this podcast for years and I so appreciate all the work that Ashley and Brit and their behind-the-scenes team put in. I have been beyond impressed with how they have grown their brand; it’s so admirable in addition to the time, energy, and funds to those in need of help solving cases. Lastly— thank you for freesummer in the app! Some day I will be able to join at cost, but as a mom of 5, money to spend on myself is pretty much nonexistent. Some day though, I will be honored to pay because the app is amazing, the show is incredible, and just wow. Love love love. And can there be more than 5 stars?
Hey I’m from Gainesville!
I am from Gainesville. Born and raised. We all know who killed Elaine. It wasn’t a trucker. It wasn’t random. This was not a crime of opportunity. Yall should take a deeper look into this one.
Brit is essential
And stop using the podcast to promote Ashley. She is fabulous but as a crime junkie i tune n for for her and Brit. Also her book was not good like she claimed. Better than I could I write. But can we stick to crime junkie and not a money grab.
🫶🏻
Been listening to this podcast since 2022 ..I love Ashely’s and Brit voice. I always listen to them at work , just that I wish the episodes were longer tho lol . Not a fan of the commercials tho
Obnoxious
I started listening to this podcast and I loved it. Then I branched out to other podcasts and realized how scripted and irritating this podcast can be. The valley girl voice along with Britts voice drives me nuts. Definitely a lot better podcasts out there.
Not Good Anymore
I used to LOVE crime junkie, but it’s just not the same anymore. Ashley gets defensive about minuscule things, towards Brit, and even sometimes towards her own fans…it takes away from the plots of the stories. Also, it’s diva behavior, and we’re just not fans of that.
Used to be great
But the refresh or whatever it is, with episodes categorized as “mysterious” or “missing” etc., and so many unsolved cases now…it’s lost its luster.
Best true crime podcast ever 🥰
I love true crime and Brit and Ashely are the best hostesses ever they make listening to the this podcast so enjoyable and I love listening to this all cozy in a blanket and sipping on a cup of tea on a rainy day but anyway I love this podcast keep the good work 😋
A few thoughts
•y’all are getting lazy!! Going for unsolved stories when I’m sure no one wants to research solved stories! If I wanted to her unsolved cases I’ll listen to the deck •Why is Brit talking so much lately. Her input isn’t needed as much. I like more when she was more reserved with her opinions or just gone
To much banter between hosts
To much banter between the host. Used to love this show. Need less opinions about what the host think. And stick with the facts
Painful
I had given up on this podcast a year ago but thought maybe it had improved….nope still painful to listen to. If you want to listen to two white girls on their soapbox this shows for you. If you want an actual true crime podcast check out morbid, going west, serialously-those are so much better.
Top notch
I’m really picky about podcasts. This is a must listen to!! Amazing!
Used to love
I used to love this pod and was a pattern subscriber for years but lately it feels like the storytelling has gotten rote, emotionless, and overly scripted. They also rarely cover solved cases anymore. I can appreciate the effort to bring attention to unsolved cases but they have other podcasts that focus on this so it’s frustrating to rarely hear about solved cases on the classic CJ☹️
To much chatter, all over the place
I checked them out since they show up #1 on crime podcast but I couldn't listen to them. There is no flow the story is told in a choppy way. And with the voices sounding frantic at times, not for me. I recommended Rotten Mango if you feel the same as me and you are looking for a unique crime podcast. Nothing personal just my opinion!
Paul & Karla
Brit - So she was just sitting around outside at 2:30 in the morning like every normal 14 year old does? That statement was so odd and gross! You lost me with that.
True crime junkies
Love this show for the in-depth look at cases and the chemistry between Brit and Ashley! They’re both great storytellers.
Following footsteps
My mom listens to this podcast all the time when she is doing mom stuff and I just started listening to this podcast and I love u guys❤️❤️🥰🥰🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼❤️❤️🥰🥰❤️❤️🥰🥰😘😘😘 Now I listen to you guys 24-7
Scripted and forced
Horrible and scripted. As if Ashley doesn’t want Britt there. Also shut up with leftist politics. Be normal.
Too many advertisements
I can’t listen anymore. It’s no longer compelling and for 30 minutes there are too many commercial breaks. Oh, and you do not need to pluralize police.
More seireal killers
Im hooked but not enough serial killer episodes
Review
Grate show a bit scary but a overall amazing podcast if you like to be on the edge of your seat and and crime the definitely watch or listen to but not at night 🫥🫥…..
LOVE THIS PODCAST!!!
This podcast is what made me and my fiance connect together and love mystery, dark detective stories. It’s the first topic that made us connect with each other and we listen to this almost every week. THANK YOU crime junky for helping me find my fiance :) Tiktok: itsmatthewalr
Should just be called Junk
This show used to be so good. They used to concentrate on the crime itself, and the investigations. Now the show is filled with the hosts personal opinions about “social justice”. Constant bashing of everyone except the criminals. Always looking to make guilty people into “victims” of society. No longer on my listening list. Dateline and 20/20 are so much better.
