    Wow! Just WOW!
    Without a doubt; hands down the very best true crime podcast I’ve ever listened to! Extremely well written, researched and presented. I thought I knew every great TC pod out there and boy was I wrong! This podcast is simply the BEST! The hosts present each episode in an informative, sensitive and engaging format.

    Gets Everything Right
    Murder in America is my new favorite podcast. The latest Dear Zachary episode hit me in the gut twice. A tragic story told with empathy, compassion and heartbreaking detail 💔

    Murder In America
    I love this show!!!…. I listen to it every single day I’m at work… I’ve caught up to the newer shows this year….. you guys were made for this!!! Thank you so much ❤️🩷

    Proper English
    I do enjoy this podcast, but once I hear Courtney repeatedly say “me and Colin”, that’s all I can think about. Please try to use proper English throughout the podcasts!
  • True-crime fanatic
    My favorite podcast!
    This is my all time favorite podcast! No 10 min beginning where they talk about themselves like other podcasts I’ve listened to. They jump write into the case! The sound effects and the times when Collin or Courtney will talk as the killer if they’d written something just emerges you right into it. The sympathy they have is amazing and the way they lay everything out makes it easy to follow along. This is my all time favorite podcast and I’ve listened to every episode! If I had the money I would subscribe to their patreon. This is the first show I put on when I have to clean my house.

    good but
    when you interview people could you please say what they said in your guys voice, cause holy sht it was literally so hard trying to listen to the girl you guys interviewed talk in ep 3 tennessee bro
  • guiktar
    Surprising
    Although this is a good podcast that has been around for a while I still find it surprising that Courtney in particular tends to mispronounce names A LOT lol throughout some episodes she’ll pronounce the names correctly and then will completely butcher them. Don’t know if it’s a proofreading situation they need to fix or just pay attention more closely but definitely keep that in mind.

    Courtney fan💜
    I really love the deep dive that you both dedicate to each story. Also the level of empathy that both of you show for each & every victim.💙 Love Courtney’s voice. BTW excellent episodes on 177 & 178! So sad! But very, very dedicated! Just wow, you both really went above & beyond going to get the son’s stuff!💜w2g! UPDATE: 179 is the perfect (chef’s kiss) follow up episode. Thank you two for this beautiful story. Often in true crime, the point gets lost. The point is to focus on the survivors of these senseless tragedies, and make sure they’re ok.

    One of the BEST true crime pods out there!! 🖤
    I have followed the Paranormal Files for many years over YouTube, and i have always loved Colin’s work & to see how much he has accomplished is amazing! Courtney has the best voice for this podcast i have listened since day one!!! 🖤🖤
  • Joeyjustin
    F yes
    Love the truth
  • Jesssaaayyyyyyy
    Love this podcast!
    Y’all’s podcast is on my top 3 🫡 you should really look into Mackenzie Cowell murder from Wenatchee WA. You might be interested in the story and I’m sure a lot of people here would find it a crazy story
  • Mblockel
    My new favorite podcast
    I love their delivery on their podcast “chef’s kiss”
  • muh-kay-luh
    looooove ALL of the shows (story recommendation also)
    ive binged every show and subcategory of shows that collin does- every single one of them is such great quality. the most important part- the research, is done unbiasedly, thoroughly, and is always so organized in the presentation. y’all should look into ted kaczynski- the “unabomber”, found in a tiny little town in montana. i think its a state that hasnt been included in the state series 🙌🏻
  • besch2029
    Super podcast!
    I have followed Colin for many years on Tik Tok as I am into the paranormal. Then I had to start this podcast! The Conspiracy Files is great as well! I love that you both work together and really investigate each case. Keep up the great work!!
  • crashley1123
    Ok
    Poor grammar. “Courtney and I’s” is in every episode; it makes me nuts. Also, trying to relate every story to your personal life and or the paranormal is annoying.
  • Chingona91
    Roadtrip
    Love this show! I’m aye on the road and hearing ram life stories has really helped time fly. What I tag about most though is how detailed they are with the stories. They really get into depth of the individuals involved and it really gives each story more of a draw!
  • lowa22
    Love this podcast…
    But please learn proper grammar. I don’t know why so many podcasters don’t. It just drives me crazy.

    True Crime on Another Level
    I’ve been listening to this podcast for a while now, I found it when I was searching for new podcasts involving true crime. The concept is interesting and I love the format of covering a case by states. This show goes into very gory details which is why I listen to it in pieces. It’s hard to binge listen because of that. Earlier episodes also tended to focus on the paranormal aspects of the crime. I noticed once they said they hired writers, that element was taken out. I’m not caught up on all of the episodes currently I’m going through the middle of 2022 so I don’t know if they returned back to that format, but that is an aspect that is missed. I also know they mentioned they have other things going on in their lives so they hired writers, but to me, that takes away so much, especially with them. Hopefully they go back to writing their own episodes. The podcast is not bad at all. It’s a great listen, and I feel it could be great for those who like true crime. Just know that sometimes the details can be a bit much.

  • Karaski24
    Paranormal stuff is annoying
    I started listening to the old podcasts and all of the paranormal talk at the end of every single episode is annoying, but still very good podcasts with lots of effort put in to them. I would listen to dedicated paranormal podcasts if they ever put them out.
  • lmwm410
    Fantastic podcast
    I really enjoy this podcast. It is interesting and well presented.
  • KimMac14

    I LOVE this podcast
    Murder in America is the best true crime podcast in my opinion! The stories are so well researched and informative. I am hooked the minute they start telling the story. I look forward to a new episode every week! Love it! Great job, Courtney and Colin!
  • Glossydoll67
    Wow!!!!
    Fantastic storytelling! Your voices are a dream to listen to and the way you construct and deliver the cases is so compelling! Fantastic use of sound effects too! It definitely adds to the vibe of each case.
  • jameesix
    Inaccurate
    If you’re going to capitalize on the pain of others, at least be decent enough to accurately tell their stories. You’re storytellers, not historically accurate narraters. And your stories are so far off mark.
  • Hdjsjfurisfjgnrnakkf
    Amazing
    This entire podcast is just so captivating, thank you so much!! :)
  • keaki970
    Love you guys!
    I’ve been listening to you guys for years now. I look forward to everyday Friday while I sit in traffic to listen to Murder in America! It’s very articulate! Keep them coming!
  • Maddygirl3019
    The best!
    This podcast brings the whole story to life. From how they talk, the sound effects and gosh i LOVEEE the body cam and phone call recordings they add, makes the timeline so easy to follow and you hear every detail of the case. I’m addicted.
  • Onica03

    Insightful and respectful
    I enjoy Murder in America because they bring light to the victims stories and their families . They share the facts while also asking the questions we are thinking.

    Murder in America
    Best podcast I’ve heard in a while, love the way they tell a story so you can envision it. Courtney is amazing! Well done y’all! 👏🏻👏🏻
  • Curt in a Skirt
    Most thorough podcast on serial homicide. Hands down.
    These two are incredibly talented storytellers who are clearly invested in the content they create. Their vocalics, attention to detail and sensitivity to the material are what set them apart. There is zero fat in this content—every word is deliberate. Love it. I tend to take life’s lemons and make stomach acid (#Facepalm), and this podcast is my escape from the world. Great stuff. 😊 Quick correction, however: trichotillomania falls into the category of obsessive-compulsive and related disorders in the diagnostic manual that mental health professionals use for diagnosis.
