Incredible storytelling! The host's (James) sincerity & heart is evident throughout each season of the podcast. I was in awe of his patience when questioning a particular mealy mouthed law enforcement representative in the Barbara Cotton case. He remained calm, kind but persistent in his questioning. James is incredibly respectful in his interviews with friends and famimy members on all sides of a story. Very responsible reporting in my opinion.

Incredible storytelling!
