KateJessieTHE BESTAmber is smart, sassy and does research. This is the BEST!

crayonsandheelsLove this PodcastI always find this podcast to be easy to listen to and well written and produced. 10/10.
-
Word.89But her voice….I went back and listened to older episodes and enjoyed those; the tone and smugness of her voice has gotten harder to listen to.
-
LunadappaGreat podcast love listening ❤️❤️❤️Just listened to the Elvis podcast it was awesome albeit a bit sad ☹️ but it’s not like I didn’t know the end I remember when he died I was in high school
-
knickerbocherSo fascinating!!!I just discovered these podcasts about a month ago. I listen in the car and doing housework (these really help make the time fly). Amber has such intelligence and wit with her writing and her delivery. Her topics are sometimes familiar to me but I always learn something about life, failure, insanity and what constitutes a crime. Thanks you for providing these podcasts!
-
Majors7Violates ‘Clean’ ratingParents beware, Amber Hunt uses profanity in both her content and her commercials. Good for her potty mouth if she feels she needs that to supplement or enhance her podcast, most mature podcaster use the English language more maturely, but at least let us parents know what an accurate rating before we play episodes with our kiddos. Disappointed.
-
CrashingisabichCorrectionIn your Benedict Arnold episode I think you meant Judas sold one man not Jesus
-
Gunter0324You won’t regret it!Such a fantastic podcast. I lol’d at the “more you know jingle”. No one does it better than this team!
-
JulyDotGreat podcastInteresting topics. Well researched. Wonderful story telling. Highly recommend.

RachelsocoolLove love loveI love this show and I love amber!

not ADA compliantAdam WalshShame on you and your researchers for not doing the research to figure out how to correctly pronounce the little kidnapped/missing six year old New York boy’s name Etan Pats. you did not even notice there’s no H in his name why you said Ethan is beyond me, his name is pronounced Ayton not Ethan his last name PATZ is pronounced PAYTZ, not pats! I hope his parents never hear this or even of this podcast, I am sure if they heard you mispronounced his name like that it would truly hurt their hearts. I should not be surprised I guess, you quite often mispronounced words, I assume because you are doing podcasts that you couldn’t hack it in the journalism and author areas you proclaim to be part of. And your researcher needs to learn how to do accurate research. It’s sad that you have dishonored the memory of this sweet little angel by not even caring enough to find out how to properly pronounce his name. and by the way, his first name is a Hebrew name. It means sturdy and strong. This name comes from Jacob‘s son from the Bible.

StarbuckleMy favorite podcastAmber is the absolute best host by far. I have searched every show she is a part of and love them. Keep it up lady!
-
CatnMaxBest. Podcast. Ever.Amber Hunt approaches each show with the calm and professional assurance and delivery which harkens back to the heady days when reporters were solid and trustworthy. Her depth of research and understanding of her subjects is incredible. Her delivery makes each story riveting from start to finish. As a daily podcast listener, an historian, a research nerd, and a fellow potty mouth, I look forward to each new episode. I enjoy “Crimes of the Centuries” immensely. Thank you Amber and everyone who makes the show shine for your consistent hard work and dedication.
-
Cooks1112Love the podcast!!I look forward to every new podcast. One of my all time favorites
-
Jillybean0726A treasure!Amber makes each of these crimes come to life!! Love revisiting or learning anew!
-
123//--::Loved the Art Heist episodeThat story has always fascinated me. Let me guess, was it DFW airport where American Airlines stranded you ? Same girl, and they literally shrugged as if they weren’t even employed by the airline. Props for using your platform.
-
YourMom 2016Ok Karen.I liked this show as it show until the host used an add spot to complain about a trip on American Airlines. 1.) I’m going to be honest I don’t care about your trip. 2.) A lot of people have travel horror stories, and generally this happen on larger airliners. Ever here of crowdstrike outage? So please keep your personal travel stories and complaints about your everyday life out of the podcast, because in this case you sound like a whiny little brat.
-
Marsupial MusicCrimes Of The Centuries..If I could give this 6 stars, I would!I love the fact that Ms. Hunt puts her money where her mouth is, by using ad space to justifiably bash American Airlines! I laughed out loud! Thank you for that!
-
AugBradZionistYuck, you think someone who talks about historical crimes would recognize genocide. Sad.
-
NsnsnsnsnsnsnsnsnsnsThis is an important podcastAmber Hunt (and team) does important work in this podcast. Some of the stories are ones I know, but many of the stories I haven’t heard of before are incredibly important stories that need to be told. Specifically, Hunt’s focus on injustice, particularly when race or gender is involved, is invaluable. These stories are moving, but what strikes me is that old adage: Those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it. This podcast highlights the seedy underbelly of society and pulls up the rug to see what lies below. Her (and her team’s) work makes sure these forgotten narratives are heard again. While it’s improbable that a podcast can change society, laws, or the world, I know for a face that this podcast has changed lives.
-
cantthinkofanythingcleverCan’t listen anymoreI absolutely used to love this podcast, it truly was superb in so many ways and had more integrity than almost any other true crime podcast, but Amber’s thinly veiled support of Zi0nism and the gen0cidal state of Isr@el (as made evident in her recent episode) is unacceptable. Sadly I have to unfollow.
-
MP 82Absolutely love this show!!!!Very well researched topics and love the way the episodes are narrated! Just listened to the Tuskegee episode and even though I knew of this, still learned quite a bit more details and the last take at the end of the episode on the ripple effects of the study on the family of the men was the main thing I was thinking of the entire time I was listening to the episode.
-
writer2b310Used to loveSo disappointed that Amber is a Zionist supporting genocide. Breaks my heart.
-
Fact-checker 2Okay-facts not always well researchedEnjoy this podcast but not all the facts are correct. In 1972 Munich episode, gymnast Olga Korbut is described as Romanian racking up 10 point scores-that was Nadia Comaneci in 1976. Olga Korbut was Belarusian and whose highest score was 9.8.
-
BlazeJesterHate that episodes start with adsAmber is a phenomenal journalist and storyteller, and I’m here for that. I HATE that the episodes start with 1.5-2min of screaming ads. I get that revenue is a must, but I wish they would intro the podcast before the hooligans start hollering. Make the first voice of the podcast Amber’s and I’ll make this a 5 star review.
-
Ullie Cocozionistaamber’s a zionist on top of her constant mispronunciations and perma frog in her throat. very unpleasant to listen to, don’t bother hurting your ears & brain.
-
ChucojenHighest QualityAmber Hunt’s research and writing set a high standard. I am an avid reader of non-fiction and am hoping she eventually publishes a crime encyclopedia. This podcast is well researched and Amber knows how to place historical events in context, even getting down to the local cultural level to help her audience truly gain understanding. I also like that the topic selection covers such wide temporal and geopgraphical topics. I wish more podcasters had Amber’s training and talent.
-
Leorex_1Red flagsI’ve been listening to this podcast since day one and was an avid listener up until recently. This new episode sent up some fed flags for me, but I decided to try and finish it just in case I was overreacting. Unfortunately for me, I don’t think I was. The Olympics is a hot topic right now, and of course you’d want to jump on that hype, but this specific story was NOT the right one. If you want to show your support for those causing a Genocide, might as well just say it instead of spreading more hate and propaganda under the guise of journalistic neutrality.
-
D's QVCSuperbI only found out about this podcast about a month ago and I absolutely love it. It covers two of my favorite subjects for the “price” of one: First history and second true crime. Your research turns up fascinating facts I have never heard before on some of the most famous cases I know about. I started listening to this podcast in order of airing. My favorite was an early show with the case of Leopold and Loeb. I did not hear you mention that Leopold wrote a book called Life Plus 99 Years so, if you ever get the chance you might check it out. There is no salacious mention of his crime but rather what he tried to give back to society during his time time in jail.
-
Fitnes MomThe music is too loudI enjoy the stories but the music is too loud it’s distracting and I can’t hear what you’re saying.
-
JosTAussieExcellent podcastI love Ambers voice and the depth of the story telling
-
Lucyboo2021Great podcastVery well written and informative. No mindless chitchat.
-
Pamsong1951Please back off on the music!Love Amber’s sardonic style but oh my goodness, the new background music is a definite thumbs down. Please fix this so we can concentrate on the great reporting we’ve come to love.
-
Glitchy and crashesWonderful story tellerAmber is great at telling these Crimes of the Centuries. Great research from her and her team. Makes me want more.
-
pammmarALove listening to amber she does a great job of explaining the story.
-
WeblooWaaaay too many adsMore and more each season
-
StopBeingGullibleWhy….The new addition of super distracting music….no. It’s louder than the narration
-
KWZeig1Highly recommend!!The research is always so good and I love Amber’s delivery. I look forward to each episode.
-
Buzz515Voyage of the DamnedListening now and the back ground noise is so unpleasant and loud that I am struggling to hear the story. It is unlistenable. What happened?
-
KedghillLove Crimes of the Centuries!Amber is a fantastic podcast host and journalist. I adore both true crime and history, and Amber also has great asides, tidbits and facts! She is awesome and worth listening to! 💖
-
lindseym395please stop with the musicthe background music is so distracting. makes it u listenable
-
Lee GeraniosSam CookeI listen to all your podcasts. I try to ignore your personal opinions you shove in your show. “White people evil,” “white people racist,” “poor oppressed black people,” “evil male misogynists,” on and on. It’s tiresome. Just tell the story.
-
Ohio45239Give it a listenAlways look forward to when an episode drops. Very informative. Also like articles in the Cincinnati enquirer. Probably only person in town still getting paper delivered. Keep them coming
-
ChaiChicFascinating stories.Amber’s storytelling style along with her voice and frankness are an ideal blend in the telling of these incredible stories.
-
fromtexasbygodLaughably lame podcastIf you like leftist revisionist history, this is your podcast. Heard all I could stomach about halfway through the Barker gang episode. So lame.
-
PW from GRSo unpretentious!Half an episode on and I’m hooked. Amber is a great story teller in a real-person’s voice. I chose the LaLaurie episode first as I had learned about her during a visit to New Orleans. This podcast offers insights and information I had not known. Bravo! UPDATE - knocking off a star for the incessant commercials.
-
Jared T9Woke hard left journalismAmber, you are so talented and capable. I loved the first season of Accused. As the years go by, you keep leaning harder and harder to the left. I’m a centrist, and just not a fan of left-leaning political activism infused in storytelling.
-
StinaMasFinaGreat job on the TX Tower Shooter!I’ve ignored most of the telling of this story due to the extreme sadness, but I’m thankful to have listened to this account. I have never heard the full story of the shooter’s background, what was going on in his life at the time of the shooting and I’ve rarely heard so many details of the victims. Thank you! And Great Job! 👏
-
SpassedLove Amber!❤️Informative and enlightening stories about things that definitely deserve more recognition. Or sometimes no recognition at all - but gives insight on the victims of these events. So glad to see COTC on Grab Bag Collab!!!! ❤️❤️
-
SavesSpidersWell researched content and a great host!I really enjoy Amber’s take on these forgotten cases. The episodes are well researched and Amber’s delivery is spot on. I truly enjoy her work with Grabbag Collab on her Catalyst podcast and I encourage fans to check that out for fascinating insight into the facts behind the crimes we all think we know.
