The writing is so poor it sounds as if the season was written by ChatGPT. Hackneyed as hell. Cooper moll is a terrible, self centering host.
2 male cops obsessed by a female killer, a 20 yo girl convicted for a murder where the main male murderer got away. Would they have spent decades of their lives going after a male killer? Can’t say I see many of these cases. And then, when we’re finally going to find out, I have to pay money?
Perhaps you should have warned right at the first episode that only chasing her was for free. Very disappointed. Hope she is living a wonderful life and the cops lost their jobs.
I’m a paid subscriber and the “thanks for subscribing, visit our website, join our mailing list” intro has been getting steadily longer. It’s now over one minute long.
Please can we drop all that and get to the episode.
The podcast itself is great. Interesting, relatively unreported stories told in a compelling way that doesn’t drag.
Love this podcast
The content of the season, I listened to was actually pretty good, but unfortunately, every other advertisement was saying how horrible Christians are. I come to podcasts to get away from all that stuff, not to have it thrown in my face that I'm horrible because I believe in God. I don't care what anybody else believes and I don't want to hear their opinions about what I believe.
