One of my favorites!

I love this podcast, I've listened to it on multiple platforms (mainly Spotify and Google Podcasts) and try to leave a good review on all of them. They go into a lot of detail and try to give multiple angles to each case. Great for my commute into work!

A great podcast

Crime Junkie is an excellent true crime podcast that feels like you're sitting down with a couple of friends and hashing out cases. I love that Crime Junkie discusses a variety of cases including murder, missing persons, and unsolved cases. Ashley and Brit treat each case with care and respect realizing that at the end of the day these cases are of real people. These stories are not told purely to entertain. These are victims who deserve justice and the tragedy of these events are shared to educate, to bring awareness, and even provide a little hope.

Gold standard for True Crime Podcasts

Crime Junkie is the gold standard. Ashley Flowers is a phenomenal story teller. I love that she & Brit get right to the point, there is no wasted off-topic dialogue. And these two ladies do a lot of good for victims & their families. I’ve devoured a lot of TC content and it just doesn’t get any better!

The greatest podcast of all time!

I love the way they speak. They stay on track and tell the story in a way that keeps you interested in the story but doesn't slow you down like a lot of my other favorite podcasts. I binged so quickly then signed up for patreon and am now waiting impatiently for every new episode! They are amazing!
