The format and reporting seem so flat. After a while, I can’t even hear it anymore, when I realize I’m not paying attention, I start listening again and it’s so blah and I’m bored.

Love your work. You have a loyal listener for life ! Thank you.

If someone unscrewed the lightbulb why weren’t any fingerprints on it? Unless the perpetrator was wearing gloves it seems like that would be a prime thing to lift fingerprints/DNA off of.

Great show

Kept me at the edge of my seat!

I think the stories are very well researched and put together. My only complaint are the frequent, monotonous background sounds. They aren’t super loud but (to me) very distracting.

As a resident of a Chicago suburb, I was very familiar with this case but this podcast provided new information! It was very tastefully discussed and very interesting. I look forward to more podcasts. Thank you for taking all the time your staff devoted to the research and interviews.

When a podcast is SO good that you just can’t stop listening … that’s the sweet spot. Let’s just say that my house is cleaner than it’s been in a long time because I couldn’t stop listening. Delia’s way of telling a story is incredible. From moment one, you’re hooked. Every season is worth a listen

I love this podcast. Some episodes do feel a LITTLE redundant, but it does feel like it’s just super detailed. The ONLY thing I dislike, is when Delia throws shade at some of the lawyers. Like season 3. Idk probably just me, but it’s giving “tooting my own horn” vibes

Can u please make more of these ? 😩😩😩

This season was just a slightly more detailed telling of the crime junkie episode. No other real investigation. Nothing really happened beyond what we already know.

I have listened to all of the seasons for years now. Some have captured me more than others (one because it happened right next to me). But Tbf to some recent comments, some seasons are deeper in details, others have more speculation. I think season 8 was extremely well done. Yeah there’s speculation (ofc it’s unsolved) but I loved the one bank robber lead tangent. Probably(?) not, but I love that you followed & pulled on the thread, regardless. It’s so difficult when so much is held back from the public, even with FOIA. I don’t think most ppl commenting understand that and how different agencies, states, & even precincts work (or even at all lol) Keep it up, Love your work! ❤️

I love this podcast and never noticed this issue before season 8. But literally as Delia is mid-sentence (often on an edge of your seat sentence) a terribly loud and abrasive commercial breaks in. It’s awful and ruins the show!!

I am a fan of counterclock and have listened to every season. This season seamed to he a shell of other seasons. This felt like a half done documentary instead of investigative reporting which i have come to expect.

I live in Chicago and my then boss’ daughter was friends with one of the victims, I vividly remember the day it happened. Why can’t cops ever solve things that journalists do?

I had forgotten about this case and was really interested to learn more about what been uncovered since it hit the headlines. It turns out, the answer is nothing. This season takes eight episodes dancing around the fact no one knows anything. I’m absolutely stunned no one entertained the thought the women were attacked because they were heavy - either because the dude had an issue with heavy women or an attraction to them he turned violent. Instead, one of the women who was killed has her life picked apart, which made zero sense. If it was an inside job, why would she call the cops and risk her accomplice being caught? Why would he kill her? Then, we just dig into a guy because we’re looking for criminals who died since the crime was committed and who loosely fit the description of the guy who did it? This felt like something that should have been a single Crime Junkie episode instead of a whole season of circling the drain.

Has anyone looked into using genetic genealogy on the kid who was in the paternity lawsuit from the guy that died in the shootout? See if there are partial matches to the crime scene?

It’s precious that Deliah calls herself an “investigative journalist.” She’s a podcaster, and a mediocre one at that.

I got hooked on this podcast during seasons 1-4. Starting with season 5 it has the feel of a podcast that is pressured to pump out a season. I listened to all of season 8 that just released, but I had a difficult time getting into it.

I typically love Counterclock. But this season was mediocre. Half the season was conspiratorial. “A History of Violence” was a great episode. That man’s son read her for filth. He hit the nail on the head.

Season 8- why deep dive into that poor woman’s finances. She OBVIOUSLY didn’t do it. And suggesting someone from the psych center escaped, is well groomed with braids, escaped, got himself a gun, walked over 20mins in the cold to the mall. You go on tangents that are truly unnecessary. And take small details into account without considering the past info you presented. It’s all fluff. A lot of flowery language with redundancy in your sentences.

Series starts strong but takes a turn into what feels like blaming one of the victims without anything concrete. It just didn’t feel right to do.

This season caught my eye because I’m from the area. It was overall pretty good but some parts were a bit of a stretch. The Tinley Park Mental health Center was not that close to the store. It’s a distance you have to drive especially considering there’s a big highway running between them. I think a patient from there was highly unlikely. Where would they even get a gun?

Listen on my iPhone Apple Podcasts. Am I supposed to listen elsewhere?

I wanted to listen to this but only made it a few minutes in. The sound effects are an unnecessary turnoff.

Not my favorite season but good so far

Great work I listened to all episodes in one day I hope this is solved

Can I just say wow I really enjoyed this season Counter Clock has never disappointed me

The first seasons were great. Now it’s all conspiracy and conjecture. Let’s just throw a million unfounded theories at the wall and hope something sticks

I find the conspiracy theories in this podcast entertaining, at best. But some of them strain credulity. In S8, there is a suggestion that a patient could have escaped from a mental facility, walked across the road and shot 5 women. Very cool conspiracy. Except, where did the gun come from? They don’t hand them out with meds at mental facilities. 🤦🏼‍♀️

I love Delia’s reporting. However, the timing of the ad breaks is TERRIBLE. They are consistently in the middle of a sentence. I’m positive that there are better options for placing the ads.

I think season 8 is the best one so far. Great job, and keep it up. I remember when this crime happened but I had no idea it was still unsolved.

I understand the need to have ads but the placement is just bizarre and throws off the flow

Season eight episode three is a mess. Lots of repeating sentences and commercials in the middle of a sentence. Definitely need some work done to that episode to make it easier to listen to.

Phenomenal reporting and fantastic storytelling! Thankful for the effort of everyone involved to produce such a great series!

CounterClock is one of my favorite podcasts. I appreciate the thorough investigation and I binge them as soon as they come out. I look forward to additional seasons in the future!

Investigates every avenue to go down as well as any detective. Really good voice. A must have for a podcast. Some people are good but annoying to listen to. Great podcast

I like this show but the editing on the latest season is making it tough to listen to

Delia is SUCH a great investigative journalist and storyteller. Best I’ve ever listened to!

I’ve been a fan of this show for quite some time, but Season 8 kept me on the edge of my seat wanting more. Hoping for some updates as more people listen to this podcast!

Did the surviving victim see the offender? Confused about all these possible suspects you’re introducing when a lineup or show up could be conducted with the surging victim to rule out or rule in suspects.

10 out of 10

I started with season 1 and I found it was so long and drawn out I could only get to episode 7 before I bailed. Interviews with law enforcement, family, and friends revealed little of substance. This could have been condensed into a third of the 15 episodes and even then it would still be drawn out.

I have never heard of this particular crime. It was covered really well and I’m glad I got to binge it. It’s not often that we get to get a concise and professional perspective on True crime stories. I think I really got to know the victims, which should always be the focus of these type of programs. Well done!

I listen to a lot of podcasts, but this by far is my favorite, the in depth look into these crimes is amazing, always looking forward to the next one!

Uber excited to start binging season 8 that just dropped regarding Lane B murders. Yay!😀

Love CounterClock and Delia’s investigative journalism. But Season 8, has the lengthiest commercial breaks . Very annoying . And what is up with Delia’s exaggerated, painfully slow speaking manner ? It is so obviously fake and it sounds ridiculous .

Listened to it in one day. Amazing work. I hope this series helps bring the case resolution.

Delia is simply amazing the time and effort she puts into the podcast and a research is second to know. Her old school boots on the ground research in the field reporting some of the best. I already listened to counter clock season eight on my crime junkies subscription, the thing she’s found out about the lane Bryant murder to blow your mind

Could your next season be on the Kendrick Johnson case
