Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 2.9k ratings
  • Most of the last episodes are out of order and/or rehashed

    Disappointed after really liking this at first. They put things in front of earlier interviews at the end to make the show longer & trick you into thinking they have more evidence. No dates when these episodes were released either, which is frustrating. Unfortunately, if Jake is innocent, his case will never be dismissed. They are just repeating all the rumors surrounding this case.

    The producer’s voice is horrifying. It’s fine, not everyone has a “voice for radio”. The only way to make it through an episode is to fast forward over that awful vocal fry voice.

  • Great storytelling. Good true crime podcast.

    I only gave this 3 stars though because I feel like if you’re going to do a podcast, your voice is all you have. Have you ever heard of vocal fry? (Not in terms of singing but speaking) It has become an acceptable way of speaking because of reality stars like Paris Hilton and the Kardashians. It is very hard to listen to.

    In addition to that, I’m not sure if one of you has a medical condition, but one of you sound like you’re perpetually losing your voice and have a cold. I think investigating... more
