Still love this podcast and a big thanks to Alaina for recommending the novel September House. What a great read!

These women are hilarious. They research each case and put so much time and energy into it. Each podcast is so well told. Yes there’s audio differences from 2018-now. Obviously. The storytelling and effort is consistent. Yes they giggle and also have a good time. I’m here giggling w them. I feel invited here and I love this podcast, always recommending ♥️

please keep saying exactly just the exact way you do ❤️

I just love these fabulous women. Long time listener.

I’ve been listening for years, and honestly, I have no idea why people are so negative in the reviews. I’m leaving this review to balance them because I just don’t understand the complaints. Again, I’ve been listening for years. I’ve listened as Alaina and Ash express their feelings relating to cases respectfully, and considering all sides. They’re consistently excellent at presenting facts of cases with interesting insights and personal experiences, and probably apologize TOO much for expressing personal opinions so they don’t offend anyone. I’ve not listened to more conscientious podcast hosts than they are. They are constantly in touch with their audience, engaging and taking feedback with grace. They have a slight bit of banter at the beginning of every show, but the reason I started listening to them consistently is because MFM was working their way to 40 MINUTES of banter. I have no idea why people complain about 5 minutes of life and business updates. If you follow any true crime podcast religiously, this should be your go-to. They never fail to make me laugh out loud as I listen, and they are SO incredibly thorough in their research, including with the credit they give to their sources. Keep up the great work ladies! 👏🏼

What happened to nice one and done episodes? I keep looking for new content and you either have guests, who don't add much, or there are 2 or 3 parters. And, don't get me wrong, you guys were so good. To anyone feeling the same, I would recommend the Redhanded podcast or Serialously where they have the banter you want but you can listen to one fully fleshed out episode in one sitting.

Sometimes the topics Alaina and Ash cover are heavy. They do all their own research and piece together a story for us listeners at a fascinating rate. Anyone who gives anything less than 5 stars should reconsider. These women are powerful speakers, intelligent story tellers, and all around wonderful humans who should continue to be recognized for the awareness and humor they share!

i love the show i love you guys and i can’t believe im writing a bad review. but please for the love of god stop with the special guests. we come here for ash and alaina not ash alaina billy joe bob and karen. it’s annoying and their voices are annoying. the only acceptable guest are john and drew respectively. we also stan the crew that works hard behind the scenes.

I used to listen all the time but not as much lately. I had to fast forward almost 14 minutes of talking to get to actual episode. I just think that’s a little too much. I enjoy some of it but it’s like please get to the story. Maybe include the time where the actual episode starts in the show notes?

If you start from the beginning yeah it’s kinda rough but it gets waaay better the further along you get. Love the banter and I definitely don’t get the people that whine about it like just skip ahead then?? Anyway I’ve been listening the last couple of years and it’s def a comfort pod for me, thanks for what you do ladies!

I really enjoy listening to them banter! They remind me of my bestie and me chatting. Most of the stories are very interesting and, I feel, well researched. I can listen to some of these stories on other pod casts and think that they are leaving things out. For those who feel they need to tell them how much they annoy them…listen to them and say this is not for me and choose something else. We are not waiting with baited breath wondering what you think of this. Move along.

Why are some of these reviews not passing the vibe check?? Love love love listening to these guys. Would listen to them talk about literally anything especially true crime 😂

I LOVE the banter between you guys the commentary and the dark humor is top tier ignore the haters keep being you guys thank you for entertaining me while I’m at work and home cleaning you guys really put your all into the research “mini mini mini mini morbid “

my mom made me listen in the car then I fell in love with the podcast keep it up

Not a fan of how cutesy and funny they try to be. I guess this podcast is created for tweens.

I don’t get this show. The sound quality is not great, there’s a lot of just giggling and kind of silly banter, and the stories are rushed through. It keeps coming up as recommended for me, but I’m not sure why. I guess some people find it entertaining but I can’t make it through an episode.

The Halloween listener tales was very disappointing:( pick better ones

Just get to the story!!

I just started listening from the beginning. The sound was terrible but got a little better. Then it got bad again. Just finished the Corpsewood murders. I can’t hear anything! I have to have the phone right up to my ear if I want to hear what is being said. This is the only podcast I have any issues with. I love the show but I get so frustrated having to rewind just to try and make out what is being said.

I see their content lately has been copying other small podcasts.

They just talk about random stuff the whole podcast and make their political views and anti Christian views known and there’s no need for it.

I have no idea why it is titled “Morbid” when they rarely go into details about the actual murder. They gloss over details just because they can’t stomach the facts. They went downhill and let their “fame” go to their heads. Please stop saying exacTly the way you do and keep your political views out of true crime podcasts.

Literally the best. I’m obsessed and listen daily, multiple episodes.

I listen to your pod at night time most nights and I have to SOMEHOW keep me laugh in to not wake anyone up IT'S SOOOOO HARD buttttt. Now I just laugh in my pillow soo PROBLEM SOLVED 💪😄👌 ✌🏻

The story about Teddy— I got chills over my whole body when it got to the song that was playing. That is so amazing 😭

Just came across your show a few weeks ago and I’m loving how well researched and informative your show has been. I’m personally obsessed with the serial killer episodes.

Hi Queen Weirdos, I just wanted to take a minute as I just listened to this episode and I did go to college in Potsdam, NY and I heard you say a lot that "this was just the '80's and now a days they have the police on campus." This none of what you said should happen "now a days" is true of Clarkson University. Going to college in a town with both State and Private Universities I learned all too quickly this is just a difference with private universities. On the state campus I attended our UP were state troopers where even in 2016 Clarkson had no police officers on campus and the UP on campus were only security guards not trained to do anything and with no connection to the police. They were a joke and things went wrong all the time and they were not respected among the student population. Later on in the episode you say the Snell family was well known. They are not just well known there is both the old Snell Hall now owned by Clarkson University, but originally part of SUNY Potsdam until Potsdam state abandoned the building gifting it to Clarkson (built in 1816 as part of the original campus) and the current Snell Hall on the SUNY Potsdam campus today both paid for by the Snell family. For more fun facts Old Snell Halls basement is where the boiler room scenes of the Nightmare on Elm Street were filmed and the building is super haunted. I was a stage manager for the Clarkson Theater Company and I often was in the building's theater alone and every time I was the stage lights would dance on their own. The dancing stage lights would have no power to them and still dance and light up the whole theater.

Updated my review from 5 to 3 stars — *Perfect example of mass production and big business ruining yet another great thing! Since they joined Wondery, the true crime episodes are less and less, the collaboration/guest episodes are boring, (I skip every single one) and the listener tales are way too often. I liked them as a break every once in a while but not every week. It feels like a sell out, but I don’t mean that on a personal level. Plus the cases feel rushed and less impactful than they used to feel, more soapbox-y or old-timey, which makes it hard to listen. I still listen to each true crime one and know that there must be some part of this that is out of their control with the Wondery contract, but they should cut them loose and go back to their roots. I listen to their other podcast, The Rewatcher, and it feels like the old days of morbid almost… bc they are on topic yet still themselves… I miss the old Morbid podcast.* Ash and Alaina have gotten me through so many boring shifts, long (and short) car rides and emotionally draining days. Whenever I turn on Morbid, I am instantly invested in the story because I know that it is thoroughly researched and more importantly, that Ash and Alaina genuinely care about honoring and remembering the victims in each case. Thank you for always being podcasters that go above and beyond for your listeners and for the victims whose stories you share! ♥️

Fav podcasters I’ve found thus far! Hilarious and I love listening to their banter , I giggle along lol :) happy to be a weirdo

I’ve been listening to this podcast for years to get through my long days at work and I’m obsessed. I love the relationship you two have and I can’t wait every week for a new episode. I’ve even moved over to scream! And the rewatcher just to get more from you guys. Keep up the good work, absolute hands down my favorite podcast

Morbid is freaking fantastic! In the words of Ash, I’m obsessed.

Keep up your great efforts to bring your personalities and insights into the morbid. Thanks also for uplifting survivors and remembering victims.

If you don’t like the talking before hand.. I just learned to press play then walk away for about 20 mins then you can back up the podcast to when the actually start the show. Don’t listen if you don’t like swearing . I’m Christian . Don’t listen if you care they don’t like Christian’s. You just have to pray for them. Most stories are good but I often wonder if they aren’t good enough to cover current stories .. they do do a lot of current ones.

I get it, it’s Halloween. A couple spooky episodes is fine but I’ve lost interest with this recent barrage of ghost stories.

All the Christians complaining about “Christian bashing”—Alaina and Ash are incredibly respectful about saying “We don’t believe but if you do, that’s your belief” and they do not bash your religion. You just can’t handle criticism. Or the fact that your religion has caused more death than any other in history. The person complaining about vocal fry: Babe, we call that a raspy voice. Ash just has one. Grow up and don’t bother listening if it upsets you that bad. The podcast is phenomenal and I love them. They are the only true crime podcast I listen to because they give the victims respect and honor their memory while sharing the story.

One of my fav podcasts!

This would be soooo much better but I feel the one girl forces saying the F word way to much , it sounds so unnatural. Sometimes that word fits but she feels like it makes her sound “cooler” to say it all the time when it’s not needed.

Keep up the good work 🖤🖤 P.S. I love all the vocal fry, Christian bashing and cussing 🤣

I usually love a good friend dynamic for hosts but these two spend a lot of time talking about personal stuff. It’s like hanging out with old friends and you’re not in on the inside jokes.

I like the stories, but their constant sidebar and laughter don’t make the stories scary at all. Plus the narrator’s voices sound like basic high school girls. I can only handle so much at a time. Also, especially in their earlier episodes, the sound is awful. They’ll both be talking but one of them will be super loud and up close to the mic, while the other is like whispering in the corner of the room. Having to go up and down with the volume so I can hear the story while preventing my ears from bleeding is super annoying. Also, they cuss like two children that have been left alone unsupervised and are trying to sound cool. Finally, Wikipedia is NOT a source. Kinda upsetting that this is referenced as a source multiple times.

Used to love listening to this podcast every day. Now it seems each episode is everything BUT true crime??

I listened for years and got tired of all the Christian bashing. I decided not to support anymore and I don’t think you should either.

i’m annoyed with the reviews on this podcast, all they talk about is the joking of christianity and cussing. the ones leaving these reviews are just proving the point that christian’s push their religion on all americans 😂 i just think it’s a little silly, not everyone believes in the same things. i love you weirdos!!! all the cases that most don’t hear about without you two talking about is amazing, keep being genuine 💕

Morbid is a household name here. The only good thing that came out of being house bound during COVID lockdowns circa 2020 was me discovering that purple app on my phone that brought me Morbid. Entertaining, great story telling, and victim conscious.

Just love them. Don’t change anything.

Taking a minute to say thanks for all your clever and hilarious banter and bone chilling content. I find myself waiting for the next episode like a kid waiting to open a present. The listener tails or very often spectacular which says a lot about your audience. Kudos.

Too much random ranting. Also “drew” is not a boy. There’s no way this podcast has 4.5 stars, how?? All the ratings are bad. Take a hint! Stop swearing and be adults.

Like many of the other reviews here, I agree that the stories are good, I listen for the true crime. But the really long intros, Christian bashing, and excessive cursing is what takes this from a 5 star to a 2.5-3 star show. Wish they would listen to some of the reviews that state this instead of calling people who say these things haters or saying they’re just being rude.

(Us Patrounus are screwed and we put them on the map. Wondery isn’t wonderful for the podcast either Thanks for fixing this and reaching out I feel validated I love m’y Ashcentic episodes. Alaina the book is the bombastic) More Ashcentic more books Alaina Update : Wondery on Apple worked out great after all and these two are the Queens of true crime I’ve been listening since episode three. Obviously I have gone back to listen to the first two episodes but I am so excited to watch them grow into something so incredible. The collaborations are amazing I really do miss the episodes like haunted lighthouses and urban legends and such but the show is just amazing and I really enjoy the show as soon as it drops I am on it The “old times” Hollywood stories are my very favorite episodes besides listener tales. From you for you and all about you. Keep it weird but not so weird that you don’t listen to morbid I want my new episodes to show up

This was probably one of my favorite episodes. I was cracking up at the office. I’m sure my coworkers thought I was crazy. Your guys portrayal of a Boston women was hilarious!
