It’s a shame the platform isn’t being used for good investigative journalism. Quite lazy to always take the position of the outcome, however I enjoy hearing the details of the trial that are otherwise unheard. Annoying that there are not 2 x weekly updates. Also Liz’s annoying childish speech inflection dumbs her reporting down.
Nah, true crime you have to pay for, zero credibility as obviously pay their interviewees, back this one.
Omg can this please be organized into topics? Where do I find the Lucy letby episodes post the new evidence? There’s so much to trawl through it’s really difficult to listen, please put into seasons or threads so we can listen fluently. I gave up. Thank you!
Enjoyed the LL podcast, it’s just a shame that the presenters are bias. Can’t wait until they are proved wrong.
Can we get a more organized feed with individual cases and filtering out all the paywalled episodes. And WHY are you using AI voices? Garbage.
