Here in that acknowledgment, I realized it was a big note on this podcast.

And here I thought only Americans trafficked in virtue posturing. It is so insulting. And for a podcast? And a podcast that is about murders and missing people? Here, in America, if those giving acknowledgment truly cared they’d be involved in trying to do something about the women and children who go missing from our reservations and who are victims of domestic abuse.

As a Mother, I can empathize with parents on both sides of this case. But at some point the Letbys may have to come to terms that their daughter is a deeply disturbed individual. The best & sometimes the most difficult thing a parent can do for their child is see they are held responsible for their own choices. Truth will out. It always does. My sincere condolences to the parents and families who suffer now and will continue to suffer for generations for trusting their baby’s care to one who (may have been) unworthy of trust.

Land acknowledgements are the most offensive, arrogant, self serving virtue signaling out there. Do you plan to give the land back? No. So it’s just rubbing it in the face of the people you took it from.

Ruined by ads. I’ll miss it, but it’s an hard unsubscribe for me.

Yikes. This is bad. Very full of themselves.

This is a truly worthy podcast and the latest episode available 2/22/22 is the best of the best! Great work Also the current leaving Neverland is very insightful on so many aspects of what to do

I do not understand what the host is saying half the time. “If we go back to your days as an ADDIBLE CLACK.” A WHAT?! (Ep: Lex Lasry; 7:45 minute mark).

Amazing podcast! So happy I found it! Keep up the good work!

She often talks over and interrupts her guests - let THEM tell the story.

It’s woke. Don’t waste your time.

…you know is going to be an exercise in white-hatred and race communism

The episode - Particular PTSD of the County Town Beat, August 1, 2022, is really amazing! Anyone involved in law enforcement, relatives, friends or those interested in what it’s really like being a cop should listen to this episode. Quickly becoming a favorite!!!

Aussie more than True Crime crppyiticrap! Ella Draper for Prison !!!!

This was once in my top five favorite podcasts, but with all of these shortened episodes and extras, it’s getting harder to keep track of the cases. Honestly, I don’t know anyone who wants short episodes.

They let a convicted rapist come on their podcast and lie about how he’s a changed man.

Bunch of liberals!

I’m American so enjoy the many professionally done episodes here. There is no random chatter to put up with when you’ve downloaded to hear a true crime case. Interview with the forensic psychiatrist and another of a victim of a schizophrenic person was top of the mark interviewing.

Just my opinion. Everyone has the right to create a platform for all types of subjects. Yours advertises as crime. That’s what I want to listen to. Not a lecture on social or political issues. You are pushing your personal agenda. Right or wrong I don’t want to hear it. Nor does my friends. You are no longer on our lists of quality podcasts that live up to their name. Goodbye and I hope you fail. As you failed your listeners.

I feel like it use to be better but I haven’t been able to listen to an entire episode in forever. Finally gonna unfollow

I love this podcast! I LOVE hearing from people directly connected with the cases you cover. I also think it very special how you acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which your show is recorded.

Very compelling crime stories.

As an American who became a Footy fan 7 years ago, and started a footy podcast, I've become a voracious consumer of all things Australian. I'm a huge fan of True Crime podcasts, and Meshel and Emily are wonderful hosts. They show a great deal of compassion to their guests, often survivors or law enforcement who have been involved with solving cases for long periods of time. Ladies, I thank you for a wonderful program that helps make my walks around my hometown in Ohio all the more interesting. Cheers!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for a few years. I eagerly await each new episode But the Cheryl Grimmer episode is just so good. It’s a compelling story, so tragic. The way Emily and Meshel conduct the interview with empathy and professionalism is riveting. I found myself crying with and for Ricky. After listening, I went to the Fairy Meadow podcast. John Kay’s report provides a lot of information and background. Thank goodness this precious angel who was so loved and cherished is having her story told.

I have been bingeing this show for weeks! So amazing and full of information. I love hearing from people about the aftermath of crime. Not only from the police, but the families, and from some who have been convicted of crimes. I can’t get enough of it. I literally have been ignoring my other shows so I can get semi-caught up! I started at the very beginning and recommend everyone else to do the same!

Listening to you attempt to speak about Britney and Whitney, I have to be totally honest. You guys are BOTH MISSING THE MARK! If you want to reach us “normal”people who have real life experiences and abusive relationships. Add me to your Podcast. In the mean time, I won’t be listening to you again. You simply don’t have the empathy and compassion that comes from real life experience. It’s so obvious you both have not a slot of experience about what you’re speaking of. I here your words. But I do not feel you. Words are not enough! I hope you add someone like me or me. And I don’t need to work for you. I am offended by your lack of real life experience and hearing your empty words. You are so wrong about what and why Britney and Whitney did what they did. You don’t know. That’s its. Not listening again.

Make a podcast that is relevant! Your country is failing- the NWO should be the ONLY Subject anyone is interested in you, you stopped sheep! Shame on you!

This is so well researched and so respectful of all parties involved. I love the acknowledgement of the aboriginal peoples and their lands. I can’t get enough of how well spoken and yet relatable the hosts are. The expert interviews are exactly what I want to hear. If I was Australian, this representation and honesty of events and situations would make me so proud. Congratulations on a job well done ladies! 🖤🖤 (p.s. Narelle Fraser is AMAZING)

I appreciate the honoring of the land. The aboriginal people all over the world have been abhorrently treated through time and the odd thing, they have so much information about how to live close to nature. I’m ready for a change where we put our Earth and all it’s beings, plant and animals, as priority. We are terribly out of balance and could use the traditional ways as a guide for restoring our balance.

I’m not even Australian (wish I was or could go visit) and yet I find this podcast quite informative and the hosts do an excellent job of summarizing Australian historical events when brought up. Their natural discussions allow someone from anywhere to easily understand and follow along.

My daily walk around Hermosa Beach in LA has become so more invigorating. As an Aussie from Mornington , your stuff weirdly enough makes me even more homesick

Episode 183 was so amazing and inspiring. Thank you for letting her share. People really need God in such a cruel world. Always know Jesus is just a whisper away.. I love this podcast

The woman who her brother was killed and then the guy posted that’s how the cookie crumbles. What about having someone check on the well being of the child. And have them see if there are things going on in front of the child and check her behaviors.

"Somebody Knows Something" the perp is either law enforcement or religious figure they all knew. He is in plain sight; the women are trusting him. Might also be a couple with a woman to lure. My money is on someone that fits in as a safe person. Trust is how he is getting them in the car without alarm.

183 is such a great episode! Loved hearing her testimony of faith. Thank you for allowing her to share it.

I've heard better. I listened to a few of these and liked them, so I subscribed. But I have to admit the more recent episodes did not hold my interest. Very much appreciate the intro clause honoring the indigenous people of the land, though -- beautiful ladies. I really want you to succeed, so c'mon, please take it up a notch.

More interviewing than story telling and if that’s what you are interested in, this show is for you.

Outstanding! These ladies are so heartfelt and lovely to listen to. Being from the US it is so interesting to hear the nuances of how crimes are handled in a different country.

I love the in depth nature of this amazing podcast. The hosts are so conscientious and caring and give their guests the respect that reflects the gravity of the cases they are sharing. I also so appreciate that the hosts acknowledge and care how different people’s experiences are and we learn so much along the way about humanity and each other. Love the podcast and thank you for your awesome, engaging work.

More Narelle Fraser.

I really like most of this podcast but I feel the same as Bschora. I get really frustrated at the empathy for the criminals and the lack of time they have to service for their crimes. What about the victims???????? My 5 stars is for Norelle...love her

This was a really excellent episode with Police Officer Gary Raymond. Do police officers have a soul? This officer does and his compassion will pull you in!

This podcast keeps me riveted and is so well done! I have cried and laughed, amazing guests and stories!

Recently heard a recommendation for this podcast and gave it a try. Excellent storytelling with in-depth details of the crimes, the victims, the justice system, and the impact on everyone involved. The hosts’ descriptions are articulate and professional. You can tell they’ve done thorough research and distilled the information into an excellent narrative. The book reviews are also well done. Unfortunately, most of the books are only available in Australia. I can’t afford a Kindle or Audible so I’ll miss out on what sounds like a lot of great true crime books. (Not that there’s any shortage of them here in the USA...)

If you like in-depth discussions of true crime, give this one a listen. It is professionally done and covers a wide variety of crimes. Love the hosts Meshel and Emily. They are always respectful and focus on the impact to the families.

i devour true crime podcasts, and this was such a lucky find. since i’m in america, i’m not familiar with most of the cases and get to learn about Australian culture as well as the crimes they discuss. this does have some of the most graphic content of any podcast i’ve listened to, but the episodes are captivating and the hosts are very respectful of the subject matter and people involved. the narelle frasier episodes are always my favorite, she is a true inspiration!

Feeling so emotional after listening to the Joanne Ratcliffe and Kirsty Gordon episode. I have not ever been in the desperate position of a lost love one, but can only imagine the torture it would be to have to live with. Feeling pretty helpless so I am sending thoughts/love/blessings to the families, also to the man who saw them with the abductor. Thank you for your podcasts Meshel and Emily xx Lola

True crime has always interested me, and being from Melbourne myself, I love that I know the locations that are being discussed...most of the time... I love the compassion and support given to victims and families of victims - too often this is forgotten or lost and the perpetrator (and the crime) gets all the attention...but not here and that is fantastic. I also love the respect and compassion given to the police!! Keep up the great work, I Love it.

This is one of my favorite podcasts. I’ve listened since the beginning and only recently does Meshel have to “waste her own time” by explaining that certain things weren’t meant to be offensive. Let’s be real. Meshel isn’t offensive, her intentions aren’t offensive, and I wonder if searching for reasons to be offended will ever get old. Meshel is hysterical in general so why not have some fun with her fans before the dark story begins? There are plenty of podcasts that are dark beginning to end. No smiling. No laughing and then it’s over making me feel like I need to watch something funny or take a shower. Am I allowed to say shower or is that offensive? Anyway. I’d give more stars if I could. I’m not usually one to rant, but....I was🤔...offended. 😂♥️LC

From their accent to the wonderful way they interact with each other and guests!
