  • Please, NO Politics

    Why is ICE in Minnesota? To arrest criminal illegal migrants. Please have more compassion for the victims of the many crimes committed by illegal migrants. BTW: the GI JOE comment was silly. ICE has to protect their identity because their lives are threatened.

  • Disappointed

    Would you also consider someone who intentionally tried to run over an ICE agent a psychopath. Your opinions are entirely bias and laughable at this point. Why have you also not touched Charlie Kirk killer at all?

  • I USED TO LOVE THIS PODCAST!

    Loved this podcast until the hosts got political on the January 9th episode. I really don’t want to listen to one sided political podcasts disguised as true crime. They have gone off the rails and I’m done with the podcast. It’s too bad because I previously gave this podcast a 5 star review. Calling ICE agents stupid and psychopaths as a whole is disgusting.

  • Best show

    True crime tonight delivers well-researched, thoughtful true crime storytelling without falling into sensationalism. The host presents each case with clarity and respect, clearly distinguishing facts from speculation. Strong pacing, solid investigative detail, and a focus on lesser-known cases make this podcast a compelling listen for anyone who values accuracy and depth in true crime content.
