You will never find any true crime comedy podcast that is this well researched.

Great Show!
Really enjoy listening in North Texas. Thanks guys. I’ve started at the beginning and am up to 2018. Hope you are well. All this stuff can give your spirits a whipping. Keep your chins up! Much love and congratulations on a great podcast!

The podcast
These guys are so funny! They are super sensitive to the really awful parts of the stories but using dark humor to get through. I relate!

THE BEST
By far the best podcast I’ve ever listened to. Thank you so much for all you do to prepare

Love it
I recommend this podcast to everyone. I love when you guys get on tangents and side quests. All about the town, the history, the research. It’s informative and hilarious.

Dance, funky algorithm, dance!
Hilarious commentary while still being respectful to the victim and doing the story justice. Love the show.

My go-to podcast
Jimmy and James are the podcast magicians I look forward to every week. I am always horrified by any case they cover, but I absolutely appreciate the research that goes into explaining those cases and their banter that takes the edge off of these practically unknown cases. You aren’t going to find Bundys or Dahmers here, whereas you’ll listen about vile, villainous people who always get caught and are told by a court of law they can F-off in some way or another. Thanks, Jimmy & James.

My favorite podcast
I love this podcast. I’ve been listening for a few years now and appreciate the story telling and the fact that both James and Jimmie say out loud what I’m often thinking. Can’t recommend enough!

Binge worthy!
I started this show 2 weeks ago and about 50 episodes in. Thank you for all that you guys do! For me, this show is tied with Casefile for best True Crime pod. 😎

The best podcast
I listen to all the shows they do and I love them all, they’re so well spoken and the cases are so well researched. I have a job where I travel and drive a lot, they get me through a lot of work days.

The stories are great
I give the content a 5 but the BS I give a 1. The annoying part is you guys think you are funny but it’s just annoying banter, please just tell the story, the loud banter is awful

Shut up!
They made me do it 😉 For real, not for the light hearted comedy…I love it!

Praise for the Jimmie school of pronunciation
Jimmie - never give up on teaching James how to say Concord (NH) correctly

I🫶 you
I’ve been listening for 2yrs and just fingered out how to give you a review. Stupid algorithms!! We love you guys and we’ll meet you at a show sometime in the near future!! Yeah, I know my name is Chad and I exercise a lot to live up to the stereotype my mother damned me too! But my wife says I’m really that big a DB so there’s that🤷🏻‍♂️

I can’t believe you both missed that the “Mountains of Adventure” ride would be at Dollywood! 🤣

I like …..
Fluffy clouds. Jk Just finished 2017 season. I first learned about STM this fall when I listened to an episode from my current town. I started telling people about the episode to then find out the building was near my home and a friends’s dad worked there back in the day when all this was going on! Small world, small town murder! I then started listening and on a current car trip finished season 1. Ready for next season. We have tickets to see you this fall, too!

Addicting pod
Listened to a single episode about a murder in my hometown (my mother was involved) and got totally hooked. These guys are the best story tellers. Yall should look into the Kunz family in Athens Wisconsin, also, the dairy princess murder in Wausau WI. CRAZY stories

Found my new favorite
Found this podcast from a recommend on Facebook in one of my true crime groups, to put it simply, I love y’all. I’ve started from the beginning and I’m 13 episodes in and I’m so glad I have years to binge. 🖤

Perfect Show!
These two are fantastic! The true crime mixed in with small town facts and humor makes the show a great listen

Val Kilmer is the best Doc Holiday. ;-)
First started listening around ep. 300, decided recently to go back and listen to ep. 1-299. Hindsight makes these even better.

The Best!
And here we are. I am hooked! I love the way the stories are told, factual information with comedic commentary, but also explanations of how the legal system works, and I love learning that as well! This is my go to podcast on my daily commute, at the gym and while making dinner. I can’t get enough of these guys :)

My Favorite Podcast
James and Jimmie are the perfect duo. The amount of research behind each episode is genuinely impressive, and the commentary is hilarious. Easily my favorite podcast—I’ve been listening for years and still look forward to every new episode. I would kill to see them perform live…
AllegedlyHayley
Love you guys!
I just have to say I have been listening to you guys for years. I love how well you banter together and that you’re both comedians. You can make the darkest stories a little lighter with your style. I recently started watching you on Netflix. James you’re great and very entertaining and Jimmie you are hot and entertaining also. Keep it up guys!

Love the humor, it’s a great distraction for my drive in and out of Chicago everyday!

Gross
James literally said in the Patreon episode that we pay to listen to them j*rk off. That’s not what I’m paying for and I think the Netflix deal has gone to his head and at the worst time because the shows have never been worse.

Love it!!
I just discovered this show. Love love love it.

Best ever
The Hawaiian episodes are extra funny when hearing James get frustrated trying to pronounce all the names and locations 🤣🤣

I give you guys 4 1/2 stars. 🤗😆 Florida isn’t terrible and you guys need to tour here. Beautiful places to visit! Thanks for the laughs.

Some laugh out loud gems
I appreciate the amount of research and time the guys put into the podcast. Lots of laugh out loud comments, but some of their jokes and commentary only highlight their lack of experience in the wide world (in my stupid opinion) and make them look a little bit ignorant or small minded. But I figure that’s a guy thing. Overall good work!

Horses like hay.
Amazing podcast!!!
RedBeardedVet
I get so excited!
Who knew?! Comedy and Crime could go together?! I watch them, i listen to them. And it’s not the same 20/20,Dateline stories that are constantly retold. It’s bizarre stories that you probably would never even know about!

Top Work Podcast
Recently started listening at work. 500+ backlog. These guys have made my past few weeks at work infinitely more enjoyable. Thanks James and Jimmie for making my long days feel shorter.

TW: Kink Shaming
I have been listening to this show for years. The latest episode, though, has made me walk away. This isn’t the first episode where James and Jimmie had blatantly kink shamed, but this episode is over the top. Just because their lives are vanilla, doesn’t give them the right to yuck anyone else’s yum. Maybe research the lifestyle before spreading misinformation.
