    Another suggestion
    I enjoyed the podcast and it kept my interest. But I agree with the others. Stick to the facts, the story was able to hold its own without personal opinion of the narrator. The police need to support and commend the officers who fight to protect the innocent, especially the falsely accused. The state needs to be commended when they DONT get a conviction when they learn the evidence isn’t there. We need to focus on fixing the system, and protecting the innocent….not trying to fix the unfixable and protecting the guilty.

    Great True Crime Podcast!
    Great theme song, great content! Pointing out injustice and trying to get to the bottom of a serial killer’s true body count.
  • OnTexasTime
    Nope. I’m out.
    Why listen to a podcast describing the struggle & plight of the poor “undocumented migrant”—-ILLEGAL ALIEN—-?? Our agenda driven media gives us this political propaganda on a daily basis. Perhaps, documenting the plight of the tax payer who must pay for the healthcare, education, housing, transportation, food, clothing, cell phone, satellite TV, etc. that these illegals receive—--along with all of the above “entitlements” the tax payer must also pay, for the scores of babies these illegals pop out—-would be a more worthwhile endeavor.

    Great for bingeing
    Easy to listen to and follow. Enjoyable for the most part.
  • Boothies1234
    Yeah... I’m out
    Season one subject was interesting and drew me into the story but politics eventually burst out when the subject of immigration status became prominent and the “struggle” of being illegal was presented with such sympathy. Season two was the kicker. The political slant I can get from the mainstream media every day. Why would I want it in a podcast?? Really!! Nothing new or revealing. Just same old, same old. Season three?? Nah....I’ve got much better things to listen to that doesn’t insult my intelligence. Good luck.

    Stick to true crime
    Season 1 was good. Season 2 not so much.
  • ALK444
    Season 1 was interesting, Season 2 is just politics
    Season 1 tells an interesting story. The writing was good and the narrator compelling. Not the best in the genre, but solid. Season 2 is a political diatribe. I don’t listen to a lot of political podcasts and I’m not going to listen to this one. I’m disappointed you went this way, but I’m going to unsubscribe now.

    🤮
    Leftist propaganda. Political drivel. Do you guys think you’re changing anyone’s mind about how to vote? Dead man talking was excellent. This is trash. Unsubscribed.
  • Dudebro85
    New Season 👎
    Season 1 (Dead Man Talking) was awesome, the new season is purely an attack on the current administration. They didn’t even really try to mask, completely on-sided with the bad orange man stance. Guess this is what we should expect from a podcast company. Should be noted that I’ve only listened to episode 1; if the subsequent episodes are a wink more balanced I’ll update my review.

    Interesting story but it was the host that kept me coming back. Will there be another season?

    Revealing look into the Court System
    A very provocative lay investigation into the court system......looking forward to the next season!
  • Niklovely
    It was me... I did it...
    For the most part, this podcast has compelling content and I enjoyed it. However, we heard the same sound bite from the taped confession way too many times.... it was over kill. “It was me... I did it....”
  • lady_shade
    Engrossing-
    Well done. Thank you! At first I was a little baffled by the Luis Perez rabbit hole-( I’m sorry, but he seems guilty), but the host brought everything back into focus and the relevance became apparent. I appreciate the process.
  • Urban Moving
    Illegal immigrant killer
    Just listening to the first episode and the host says something like “serial killers are a very American phenomenon” and I’m thinking OK this is where he’ll tell us Resendiz is Mexican. Nope. Why wouldn’t a journalist report this fact? Resendiz was deported several times but kept reentering illegally. Illegal immigration has been a very newsworthy topic recently, but why would a reporter broach a highly relevant, politically topical matter, right? Apparently reporters are here to *not* talk about interesting things, and to omit facts significant to current policy debates. It’s so tiresome having the world interpreted by left wing journos all with the same political prejudices.

    Not too bad.
    Good podcast, great host. My only issue is that there is no real resolution. I’m not expecting him to solve the case in one season but at least make another season to update us. It just ended so abruptly. Other that that, it’s a good binge.

    Excellent podcast!
    Highly recommended podcast; especially for fans of Bear Brook, Counterclock, Happy Face, etc. Compelling and intriguing, this podcast will have you hooked from the first episode.
  • Eneles3
    Great podcast!
    Very interesting and compelling. Can’t wait for an update on the case!!
  • Cheryl R - Michigan
    Well told
    As being in the criminal justice field, you had excellent follow ups, questioning witnesses, and just all around great work. Hope you find a lawyer. And can’t wait for season two.
  • Em4444455
    Bad storytelling and poor focus
    Had potential but became super repetitive. I felt like this could have been a 3 episode series. Also the theme song makes my ears bleed.
  • KarmaKarma81
    Great true crime podcast
    Haven't gotten all the way through but can already tell the rest will be enjoyable. A compelling story told by a great storyteller. Great overall production values. The only negative thing I can say about it is that the theme song kind of annoys me. LOL.
  • AMM1313131
    Awesome.
    It’s like a real life Bolaño novel.
  • mirrorlesskix
    Very nice
    The narrator’s accent is so satisfying. Love it.
  • Don@mac
    Bad storytelling
    The narrator injects himself into the story too much. We don’t care how many times he moves back and forth between uk and Texas. And don’t tell me that you’re going to tell me. Just tell me. It sounds like a leaving now intriguing story but it’s just told badly. Out of order. Repetitive. Repetitive. The first episode could have been told in 3 minutes.
  • Pimp-Dawg-Big-G
    Worth it
    Not a huge true crime guy but the investigation and story telling our fascinating

  • 🐍Slytherin
    Love this Podcast
    I am super picky about podcasts (there are only 3 I listen to regularly besides DMT) and this one had me hooked from the first episode. Without giving any spoilers, it is just amazing how much the host was able to uncover, and the progress that was made on the case. Fantastic show! If you love true crime, I definitely recommend giving this podcast a shot!

    Politicized Final
    Here we go. People just have to politicize everything. I should’ve known it was coming. First of all, he started talking about the West Memphis three. There is a lot of evidence to show that those three kids did commit that murder. They were let out because D-bags like Henry Rollins, Eddie Vedder, Johnny Depp, and a host of other ignorant celebrities jumped on board to free those kids. Look into it yourself. In my opinion, looking at all the evidence, they were guilty. Don’t let one documentary shape your opinion. A documentarian or podcaster is only going to inform you of “facts” that back the case they’re trying to make. Then he segues into an anti-death penalty diatribe. I don’t care what your opinion is on the death penalty. But can we just have one form of media it is not politicized in a world where everything is politicized? This is just the finale. The whole series is flat. He claims to be a journalist, yet obviously made up his mind before doing this podcast. Just goes to show you that genuine journalism is dead. Just the facts, sir.
  • MjulietR
    Intriguing
    I wish there was more! However, I appreciate the fact that he went in not knowing where the findings would take him and it was just as much as a “surprise” to him as it was to the listeners. Hope to hear more soon!
  • cutiepie0304
    Quality Podcast
    I listen to a bunch of true crime podcasts, and this one is really good. I really liked Alex the journalist and narrator. A lot of true crime podcasters seem to focus more on the killer and the gruesomeness of their crimes than the impact on their victims and their victims’ families, and I think Alex empathized with and focused on the victims. I would definitely listen to another podcast series by him.
  • Della Dante
    Podcast keeps your attention.
    I could have done without the Michelle Lyons episode. She boasted of witnessing almost 300 executions, completely detached from the inhumanity of it. Whether you support the death penalty or not, sounds like Lyons has her own little touch of sociopath. She offered nothing that gave us insight into Resendiz. Her focus was his attraction to her. Her inappropriate giggling, recounting what she was wearing, commenting on his small stature as if that was the reason he was an unacceptable suitor, was disturbing. She found so much humor in this tragedy and really got a kick out of him posing with Coke. I’ve read accounts by chaplains and wardens whose job entailed watching executions. Their lives were forever changed. I might just get her book from the library to see if she is really as devoid of any human empathy as she came off. This was an unnecessary episode. I don’t believe she got to know him at all and had nothing to offer.
  • nick pitts
    Very interesting
    Eery and interesting. Thanks for the work Alex
  • Dbundick
    Please number your podcast 1,2,3 etc
    Read title line Thanks
  • Mookie12121441976
    Boring
    Nothing of any real interest. A bunch of wild “maybes” or “possibilities” but all conjecture. Pretty uninteresting.
  • CherylTh
    Good podcast, terrible last episode
    I’ve really liked this podcast but the interview with Michelle Lyons was terrible. I found her extremely off-putting and thought the joking about a man on death row flirting with her were awful. She clearly liked the fact he flirted with her no matter how many times she said otherwise. I didn’t listen to the whole thing but will listen to the final episodes.
  • JWar8
    Decent podcast but too much emphasis on ads
    The story is interesting and a good fun listen but it seems as though they are making more smaller episodes with filler for more ad reading
