fmtiggie67Excellent TRULY TRUE CrimeI really love the work done by this podcast!! And I do so much that while Iām able I put my money where my mouth isā¦as we say here in the US. While I can which may not be much longer, Iām happy to do it. You guys seem to understand that TRUE Crime can mean TRULY HEINOUS,TRULY MACABRE, TRULY FRIGHTENING, etc. You give reasonable notice advising listeners the episode may not be for them & you get on w/it w/all itās: TRUE Crime-ness in all itās Real Reality Realness (Forgive the alliteration!) And my favorite part? When Benjamin says: And where are we now? The great wrong is righted! Justice is served! Injustice is resolvedā¦ Whatever needs to happen; does. Except when itās a bit too real and justice goes horribly wrongā¦etc, etc. Convictions are unsafe; sentences are too shortā¦ too long, too harsh; guilty die before judgement can be passed: life; death

AsciguyGreat podcastHave to listen at 1.25x though.

NanstrosityGetting boringSometimes the cases are interesting. maybe because we are hundreds of episodes, though, sometimes they are so dull. Often times they just repeating the same sentences over and over again. This most recent episode we heard him describe what she said in the police interview, then we heard him describe how the prosecutor described what she said in her police interviews then he described her on the stand saying the same thing as in the police interview. If there isnāt that much material, just do a short episode or write an episode about something else. As many others have said, he speaks slowly and monotonously, itās one of my bedtime podcasts because of that. But the doesnāt mean Iām not listening to the content, and itās irritating when itās just repeating the same few sentences over and over.

Gv1120001What went wrongOnce upon a time this was a thoroughly fascinating true crime podcast, but in the last two-three years the cases that are covered are remarkably dull, without any of the twists or turns that made earlier seasons so compelling. More like a police blotter than actual storytelling, the podcast has become a sad slog.

AlygramSeason 9 Ep 3This is a simply heartwrenching story of victims of a very sick man. Well researched, written and narrated. Fascinating but so sad at the same time.

bye122334455666778Over itIām so tired of getting āearly access showsā Iām about to delete the podcast all together.

fimmy1423647Just the facts!This show is great because there isnāt 10 minutes of banter between hosts at the beginning who think theyāre funny. He presents the case straight off in a very well researched way. This is the kind of crime podcast I like. Itās very much like Casefile, my other favorite podcast.

BkdebrnBKDebā¦.! Brooklyn, NYMy absolute FAVORITE True Crime Podcast! Benjamin and company are INCREDIBLEā¦, hands down ! Thank you for the great storytelling.
-
5891JonathanGritty storytellingThere are times when I have to take a break during an episode. Very disturbing, and I am not overly sensitive about the dark side of human nature.
-
LoveyDovey15Amazing podcast!!His voice, the way he tells the story plus all the research theyāve done to bring us the full story is absolutely 5 stars! Whenever Iāve caught up on episodes, I start over and listen again! Absolutely worth trying. You wonāt be disappointed.
-
Ex-MurderinoInteresting but host needs to speed up the narrationInteresting cases but the host has a strange way of speaking. He often drastically slows down the last few words in a sentence (which is saying a lot since he already speaks quite slowly).
-
LEO_4_LIFEWhat happenedWhats with the weird voice? spoils a great show.
-
Tb dubI love his voice.One of my favorites! His voice is soothing and appropriately non-dramatic.
-
Kim, BoulderVoiceHer voice puts me to sleep, no enthusiasm in it!!!
-
kbish614One of my favesLove this podcast, love the hostās soothing voice.
-
B.dS7This is passable if you put the speed at 1.25Otherwise itās basically hypnosis
-
Ghost0987So worth whileWorthy of paying for, well done, this N.A. of content, thank you!
-
Kay Kay 478Too slowItās a good podcast, but the fact that I had to speed it up just annoyed me, especially because heās super slow, but interviews and everything else are regular speed.
-
T-phoAmazingSo good
-
Klah11Horrible voiceI canāt understand how people are praising the hostsās voice. I actually thought it was a computer at first. I had to speed the sound up to 1.25x and ultimately, sadly wonāt be able to listen to this show due to slow robot host. Maybe AI is fooling us allā¦

snapchat: xix.mialovebeen loving the story telling & how these episodes are laid out!

SusieSACream of the crop!Benjamin and his crew are the real deal. If you love an interesting story, a velvet voice, a factual account and true artistry- youāre going to love TWAU. First-class production and audio only bolster this perfect offering to the podcast genre. Iāve been a fan since early in the game, TWAU was my first obsession. I only became interested in all the other podcasts because of this. Thank you Benjamin and all the TWAU crew for your hard work. Itās nothing short of perfection. ā„ļø

Toog 1970Top Notch!Benjamin is an amazing presenter and the cases are always interesting. I love that your podcast includes numerous pics. A very consistent, classy, interesting, and professionally done podcast!
-
NullityLove!One of my favorite podcasts! Not only do I love the hosts voice, but I love his rhythmic speech, and itās just so loving and soothing. I hang onto every word of his stories. Keep up the fantastic work!
-
AntonekneeCome get your crime fixI love this Pcast, nicely narratedā¦Benji speaks clear and calm, heās very understandable considering his accentā¦I wouldnāt mind using him to narrate my life lolā¦.he uses actual footage recordings so that tells me that he does his research, some stories are random and some are popular, all are detailed and interesting
-
DMcKelvyWell written and producedConsistently excellent storytelling and polished production. Appreciate the attention to detail and backstories of victims and perpetrators. Without opinions or commentary- creates clear, meaningful and memorable stories. Thank you!

BschoraHold the syrup please.Not sure where all the mucky muck interviews come from but the episodes would go down a lot easier if much of it was eliminated. The stuff Iām referring to are the victim impact statements, and the post-hearing comments by the murdererās family members. Why? Because itās always the same, itās very personal, and waving them around in a podcast demeans them and drags the narrative into the dark depth of droll, syrupy, melodrama. Please donāt parade peopleās morose pain for my entertainment. The story is enough. The gory details are enough. A victimās impact statement is for judge and jury. I have subtracted a whole point for this. Otherwise, great work. When my UK friends try to tell me how violent Americans are, and how meek the British are in comparison, I love pointing them to They Walk Among Us.
-
Devine Ms DThis is a good oneLove the host, although the face doesn't match lol. Stories are new so far from same old cycled through, and love the single host scripted format, is my favorite. No opening chit-chat is awesome. The older cases are my favorite.
-
joshimatsuResponse to a recent critiqueCompletely disagree with the review that said 100-some-odd year old cases arenāt interesting. Crimes in different eras are intriguing in how they reflect the different times and tend to be wrapped in a bit more mystique as well due to there simply not being as much information available usually. This is something Casefile also showcases well. Itād be boring if we only focused on current times.
-
piclklypooUsually goodTrue crime needs to be relatively current to be interesting. The more recent the crime, the more compelling the narrative. 100 year old crime cases are simply not interesting.
-
Spadalsky1/2 speedListened to half an episodeā¦ Can you speak any slower?!
-
Vbn456āļøāļøāļøāļøāļøSuch a great podcast! The narrators voice is fantastic for true crime! One of my faves!
-
AmbeeereeBest voice in true crime podcastingAlways interesting cases, thoughtfully narrated with in-depth research. No blaring music, no chatter or banter, just a calm soothing voice with a beautiful accent. Well done!
-
Goddezz713Love itAmazing thank you love love love
-
TamiGCGood WorkThis is going to ruin it for some of you, but what they did in season 4 episode 31 was some brilliant! Well researched with good pacing. Being across the pond, I have to assume some of the multi-parters that it donāt need to be are probably notorious in the UK and not the US.
-
Luna LoperCaptivatingThis is an absolute must listen to podcast. Stories I have never heard before unlike the same stories told over and over by different podcasters. Repeatedly binge worthy by choice.
-
eg portlandOne of the best serious true crime podcastsGreat narration and writing. Lots of details. Serious and well researched.
-
Gin's OpinionGreat descriptionsI love this podcast! No unnecessary chit chat, just the story with the bonus of āWhere are we nowā follow-up. Unique, informative and factualā¦NICE!
-
Danny Boy100You have fulfilled . . .your new produceās dream to become more gross, to reach the of dregs of humanity. I I can no longer listen.
-
planetNasaInformativeFirst time listening, started at Season 6 episode 1-5. I donāt know how I never heard of them before but this was really well done. Very respectful and no speculations, just facts. Host does talk incredibly slow so I did have to bump it up to 1 1/4x speed and it was perfect. I do wish the episodes had case names instead of just āseason x episode xā especially with multi part episodes but itās not the end of the world. Really looking forward to getting caught up on these cases!
-
JoshuausherGreat narration šš¼Definitely subscribe.

mdh0071Listen on 1 1/4 speedLike many reviews, thereās a slow go to this. Cadence is very measured, and pauses are unusually long. My solution? Listen at 1 1/14 speed! Rated 3 because: unless you have any (and I mean ANY) actual proof to the claim, can we please not inject āitās because the cops/neighbors/clergymen were clearly racistā into every. Single. Story. There are times when this is pertinent to a case. There are times race or sex actually play into a motive or crime. But for the love of true crime podcasts, not EVERY story is about it.
-
Carbs&CoffeeConflictedThe cases are unique and interesting, I suppose thatās the reason I can bare through the strange narration. It is a bit tough to get through some episodes, I wonder how this guy got the part. It would be wonderful to try different people, I know Iām not the only listener with this issue!

jeanieforeverConsistently good & BingetasticI keep coming back to this podcast because of steady flow of well researched cases delivered with excellent pace, timing and tone. The narrative always comes to a satisfying close where youāre not left wondering, instead you have an understanding of the gravity of these crimes and their context in the lives of everyday people. No wacky voices, loose ends, nor superficial storytelling of the same cases over and over. Best of all there are so many episodes so youāre not left hanging. Bingetastic.
-
Tiki McCDecentWell-written, but this guy has a really bizarre inflection. He sounds like a text-to-speech computer. Once you get past that, thereās a good podcast.
-
jipisibiliParadoxicalWell, you can sleep while youāre listening to the most horrific and painful casesā¦
-
cmdmclear and conciseā¦no chatter or banterā¦just excellent and informative reportingā¦

Zeeble ZorpGreat showThe story can be a little confusing at times, but one of the best narrative true crime podcasts.
