Great story telling

Erica is a natural story teller who strives to find little known facts and details on cases.

I’ve been “into” true crime pods since before they were a thing, and SFTC is one of the best out there. Erika is compassionate and sharp and always paints a gorgeous picture of whatever particular location and culture is relevant to the story. She has a deep understanding of human nature and the complexities involved in crime. I’m always sad I have to wait another week for an episode once the new one is finished!

The way Erika nails the trifecta (victim,location, circumstance) is flawless, plus I’ve always been a sucker for a southern accent 😏

Top notch storytelling with a Southern drawl!

Growing up in the American South, I have found a kinship with this podcast and am a proud Patreon supporter. Erica works her butt off to produce authentic tales of true crime in the South and research is evident in each case. I look forward to each new episode! Thanks y’all!

AMAZING Podcast. Keep doing what you do.

I fell in love with this podcast within minutes of listening to my first episode. The quality was apparent and the content was so detailed, well-researched and both passionately and expertly delivered. By the time I was a few episodes in I was absolutely hooked. I don’t know who needs to hear this but people’s actions are a direct consequence of their past experiences and life events. This very much applies to murderers and other criminals and it’s something that I personally seek to know about every perpetrator in every podcast I listen to. It’s very naive to think every criminal is just evil and that’s what drives their actions. Understanding a person’s past helps me understand the person. Erica does an amazing job painting a complete picture so I can understand. Highly, highly recommend this podcast to anyone who likes true crime even a little.

Love this Podcast

Erica does an amazing job researching and giving the facts. She shared information that will make you think. I read some of the not so great reviews and I completely disagree with some of their comments. She tells a great story and has a very relaxing voice. I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts and this is one of my absolute favorites! Thank you Erica, keep doing exactly what you have been! Great podcast!!

Southern Crime is a gem

This podcast is insightful, well written and researched, always looking at the why of it at all. Taking into account background around both the criminal and the victims it is insightful and well done. And her voice is like honey.

Best Podcast!!!

SFTC is one of the best podcasts around! Erica has an amazing voice and the research for the podcasts is stellar. While I may not always agree with Erica’s views, she is a caring and empathetic breath of fresh air! Give her a listen!!!!!

Definitely worth a listen

I love Erica’s stories and how thoughtfully they are researched and told. Her soothing southern accent and witty commentary definitely makes hearing some of these awful stories worth listening to.

Well researched - one of my favorites

Well researched and the delivery is good. Erica does a fantastic job of laying out the backstory of the cases she covers and never forgets the victims of crime. While I have seen some reviews that complain that she makes excuses for a criminal’s behavior, that is NOT the case. While she does give background information on what may have led someone to commit a crime, it is merely an explanation of possible factors/motivations. That is not the same as an excuse. Keep up the good work!

INTERESTING & WELL DONE

I’ve listened to every episode…once I started listening I could not stop. I’m from Arkansas (GO HOGS!) & a criminal defense attorney & this is one of my favorite podcast. I don’t like a lot of true crime podcast b/c they try to be cheeky or sensational. Erica keeps is real…real respectful & real about the people she’s telling the story about. All the haters need to just move on- this is for REAL true crime enthusiast who want to understand what causes these events to occur ~ not just details of a horrific crime. Keep on Keepin’ on, Erica.

True Crime Storytelling At Its Finest

I absolutely love the intermingling of history, psychology, and storytelling that this podcast brings- it’s my favorite for how beautifully the three are intertwined.

A True Crime Favorite

The host does a great job of telling all sides of the story, including the why. Some crimes make no sense, but Erika outlines early life events that may form potential psychopathic behaviors. The why is what makes true crime so interesting, especially in podcast retelling. Her southern style and sensibilities make it entertaining as well. Southern Fried is a favorite listen.

Love this podcast!

I absolutely cannot tell you how much I love Erica Kelley and this podcast! She has a beautiful calm voice and tells it just like it is with alittle spunky and personality. If you want emotionless facts watch the news but if you want a deep dive into the who,what and why with alittle bit of personality, this is for you! Erica says exactly what I'm thinking when I am listening!

I really enjoy this podcast! Erica has a soothing voice and the stories are well researched. I appreciate the background provided and the glimpses into the personal history of the perpetrators. I totally agree that it’s about the why behind the actions that is so important. Keep up the great work, Erica and crew!!

Top 5 of my true crime podcasts

It is impossible to remove the context from true crime and it still remain true. This podcast does a great job describing the atmosphere in which the crime occurred, which is critical to understanding. The Manson Murders aren’t the Manson Murders without the context of hippie and celebrity culture, disillusionment, and the cult era. The slaying of grandparents by a young couple is nothing without the context of abuse, homophobia, and southern evangelicalism
