Jason Moon does a deep dive into his cases, taking his time to give you a picture of the victims, the families and interweaves a beautiful story that captivates his listeners. He has my attention for anything else he creates
This is a decent podcast. I’m writing in reference to season 2. It would have been nice to lay a bit more respect to the victim Sharon by explaining her story, her life, the crime itself. It’s literally all about Jason and who’ll I agree that portion of the case is not only interesting but necessary to cover, in an 8 episode podcast I feel one episode could’ve been about the victim.
True crime narrated clearly, logically & without bias. Interesting stories, not the over told ones we all know too well.
Enjoyable listening
I rarely listen to a series twice. I go back to Bear Brook again and again. Have recommended it friends and family across the pond as well. If it hadn’t won awards, it should. It’s a fundamental.
