Too many ads

I like the show but there’s way too many ads. It seems like there’s 4 minutes of ads every 5 minutes. I always end up turning the podcast off because of this.

Well researched which I like and appreciate. A lot of true crime podcasters don’t even bother to do this but Erica does. She really cares about the victims. I do prefer the excellent scripts written just by Erica herself because it’s in tune with her spirit and personality. The collaborative script writing just isn’t her and loses some of the engaging qualities that define Erica’s writing. I can tell when the script was written wholly or partially by someone else. I also want to address a disgusting comment on here written Feb 27, 2024 by gardenfairy86. Talk about a racist, this commenter certainly is. Basically telling Erica Kelly that because she’s white she doesn’t have a right to share true crime cases about blacks. People like this dont even deserve a voice. Pay no attention to such ignorant comments.

I always have my mind made up…

When it comes to guilt and innocence in true crime stories I pretty much always have my mind made up. However, Erica’s research and following narrative has made me think, stop and consider, and occasionally left me wondering what was the right thing to see that justice was realized. So thanks! This has become my favorite tc podcast.

Excellence

I love this podcast! I grew up in Nashville and enjoy Southern crime and history. Erica thoroughly researches each podcast and has the gift of weaving the story together in a coherent matter. In other words, her shows are easy to follow, even the complicated crime stories. My only negative comment is that I can’t stand background music on any show but I’m just like that. It’s not going to stop me from listening…I just try to tune it out.

My favorite southern belle

I still love this podcast so much that I don’t mind skipping the ads that come up after every 3-5 spoken words.

The best!

I am from Arkansas and it’s not often that I hear a podcast covering a case from my state. I love the south and I am familiar with the unique crimes prevalent here. I love Southern Fried True Crime. Erica’s accent paired with her first hand knowledge of the south is the cherry on top of her excellent story telling.

210

I’ve been a long-time listener and I feel episode 210 is probably some Erica Kelly’s best work, second behind The Ballad of Zack and Addie. *chefs kiss and mad respect*

Well-researched and narrated

The episodes of this podcast always seem thoroughly researched and fairly presented. The narrator is one of my favorites. She speaks at a pace that is measured without being stilted, and is easy to understand.

Must Follow

This is actually my first ever podcast, yes I know I am behind the times! Lol Southern Fried did not disappoint! Erica has a great listening voice! I love her take on the episodes and her honesty and wittiness! I also appreciate the way she gives as much honor and respect to the victims and their families as possible, while still giving me the info I need as a True Crime Junkie. I would definitely recommend this show and look forward to every episode!

Just ok at least for now

Paid ad free listening

This is a fantastic podcast, but I find myself turning it off during commercial breaks. Is there any way to enjoy it ad free?

Great True Crime Podcast with Southern Charm

Well-researched! Thank you for finding these cases, particularly in the American South. I had never heard of the Dixie Mafia before.

Happy

I’m happy that I listened to the most recent podcasts first. Listening to the early ones and the phony white privilege installed in the episodes was ridiculous. Finally on track and presenting facts and not phony ideology.

Great podcast

Erica Kelly, I would just like to share with you how much I am enjoying your southern fried true crime podcast. I found you by listening to Crime Junkie and The Deck. Which is a blessing because I needed some new binge worthy crime podcast to do for a few days. I love the way you tell your stories, you have such a perfect, soft voice for podcast listeners, and the first time I listened to your podcast. I was an immediate subscriber. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and stories with us. And myself, as a listener, I would like to thank your husband for building you that soundproof room in order for you to do these. Keep up the fabulous work. It is wonderful. 💜Nahnee💜

Just want to correct the military status here. Shadow did not retire from the military, she ETS’d which is End Termination of Service. To retire is 20+ years.

Pay option

I sure do wish there was a pay option, rather than listening to the NUMEROUS, and ever-increasing number of ads. It’s difficult to relax, and enjoy the podcast, then bam…it’s an ad…it’s loud, and even sometimes in Spanish, which I don’t even understand. Please offer some way to NOT hear the ads. I love the podcast, and have reviewed before.
