    So dramatic….
    We get it. Each and every episode pisses you off for the injustice done to “these babies” Each and every episode is hard for you to cover… ad nauseam. Stop doing the show then. I semi got used to the voice but she has to repeat herself over and over every episode as if we don’t believe her. She’s too dramatic
  • Game Hil
    Great podcast!
    Thank you for the great job that you do sharing the stories of the precious children that are taken from this world too early. They’re are sometimes hard to listen to, but each is equally deserving of their story to be shared. Thank you! Hilary

    Editor needs to listen to placement of ads
    Talking about a horrible traumatic death of a child and then suddenly an ad for CEREAL saying something like “all kids love cereal” with no music, no sign that it’s a commercial, is just inappropriate and almost seems like you’re profiting off their deaths. Almost seems heartless
  • michaels magic threadworks
    Too many commercials
    I’ve grown to love the narrator! However the intense subject is too often riddled with commercials.
  • Jersey Girl in Vermont
    Love this podcast
    Host is strictly business and gets straight to the point! Just great episodes every time.
  • Spider-Man >:D
    Thank you
    I love how you always cover underreported cases like Ayla Reynolds. I live near where she lived and her case has an impact on me and my community in many ways. Love you and keep it up <3

    STILL - One of my top 3
    Some may say it’s unbearable because of the woman’s accent—- that is one reason I love it! I think it’s unique & this podcast is very informative. These horrible crimes need to be told. This podcast is one of my top 3. Still my favorite podcast & I am a big fan of Ali’s 😘

    Terrible narrating
    Oh the voice…going high then low over and over. Can’t take it. Turned it off as quickly as I turned it on.
  • WavesAndTides
    Unbearable to listen to
    If you are going to do a podcast then do it with respect. As is, this is unbearable to listen to. Ali’s delivery is curt, arrogant, disrespectful., no compassion. Such horrible vocal fry. Mispronunciations. What good are you doing telling someone’s story when your vocal delivery turns people away from listening to it? So many comments on here about her vocal delivery and yet she does nothing to improve her voice. Pure laziness and disrespectful to anyone who had tuned in for a listen, but even more so for the victims.
  • nhersue
    Thank you!
    For the stories you tell and giving a voice to the little victims. Lots of love.

    Go back and edit Dylan audio…
    You must have been listening to some sort of music while editing this. You can hear background music during the court case parts….sounds like you’re listening to a movie with a score or the way a DVD or video game continues to play intro music over and over….

    Awful voice
    This podcast has good stories but the narrators voice is absolutely nauseating. I would go as far as to say that she has the worst voice I have ever heard on a podcast
  • LaRoseBella
    Heartbreaking but so important
    The host shows such incredible respect and support while sharing these horrific stories. This subject is awful to hear but it’s so vitally important to shed light on the children’s suffering to bring awareness to the public. As a mother, my heart also breaks every time I listen but the host has such huge strength to research and tell these stories. It’s a labor of love and I support it! Save the babies and kids! If you see something, say something!
  • Anniesweets
    Yes Ali!!!
    Good to the point cases. No fluff here. Straight facts. I’ve been listening since the beginning, Ali rarely inputs her own opinions but when she does it’s gold. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
  • StillWater1
    Host voice does not work
    Between hissing, vocal fry and just a strange cadence, I can’t listen to this pod.

    Stolen Stars
    Hi Ali, I'm contacting you here bc I can't seem to find an email for you so I'm hoping that you come across this messsge. I wanted to inform you of a rating issue over on Spotify for Stolen Lives. The system doesn't allow me to rate you 5 Stars, it's the weirdest thing. The fifth star doesn't react upon clicking on it or else..When it does work, the "submit" button will immediately disappear off the screen the second the 5th Star is highlighted, if that makes any sense. Basically, I have no option but to rate 4 Stars or below, otherwise it malfunctions. I checked with other podcasts, without incident, it seems to only occur on Stolen Lives. I feel it's a case of some "Stolen Stars", on behalf of Spotify. And you very well deserve the full 5 Stars and I believe it's not only just me bc your rating appears to be a perfect 4 stars, which makes sense. Anyways, I love your podcast and the issue upset me so for what it's worth, I wanted to pass this on, hoping that it will successfully find its way to you...in case you weren't aware of what's going on.. Thank you for your wonderful podcast(s). They are my 5 Star favorites💫💫💫💫💫 ❤️Alexandra

    One of my favs
    I really enjoy this podcast. I love the host - she is amazing and so genuine sounding.
  • JAlex3445
    Plagiarized from YouTube
    Zha Nae's episode is plagiarized from The Misery Machine over on YT. I see more reviews about plagiarism of other episodes so it would be a fun game to listen to the episodes and then find the source she stole them from. If you can get past her voice that is.
  • Dittyknitty
    Okay but not
    I can’t stand her voice, but the stories are interesting and covered fully.
  • Susanml
    Voice
    I could not listen to even a whole episode. Some people are not meant to do podcasts because of their voice and delivery. She sounds like she’s drunk or something, I can’t even comment on the content because I couldn’t listen enough
  • Tfmj
    My girlfriends murder
    Can you do the Tiffany Jenks.. murder oregon we need justice
  • Ktinhon
    Plagiarism
    Tracy Neese episode was essentially verbatim an article that I just read on line about the abduction and murder of the little girl. As if she read it off directly for the podcast.
  • button snail
    Great content
    Ali does such a great job telling the story’s of the victims and family. Lots of heart ❤️
  • cali_760
    Can’t figure out if
    Confused whether the audio is purposely slowed down or if this is the hosts actually sounds this slow… The accent isn’t the problem for me as I clearly understand what they’re saying but the sluggish speed is uncanny.
  • Bug4987
    I can’t listen
    Her cadence and voice are just unbearable to listen to
  • carlye s.
    Good but the pauses are weird
    I like the variety of cases from around the world. The pauses in between some of sentences are so strange and I always think the podcast was paused or the app malfunctioned.
  • tlayla88
    The voice cringe
    So cringy — most awkward voice. I can’t .
  • fgh23#6
    Glib delivery
    …..needs to facts check ….many statements are sadly incorrect🙈
  • lmcarthy
    Omg
    Honey PLEASE GET SOME VOCAL LESSONS. I will literally cashapp you so you afford it! I couldn’t make it beyond 5 minutes into the shower episode…the vocal fry in this narrator’s speech is absolutely nauseating. It doesn’t even sound real…no one talks like this.
  • Joey KC
    Covers Lesser Known Cases
    I like that this podcast provides coverage for cases that have not received the attention they should.
  • Rana Nam
    annoyed
    most annoying voice ever I couldn't even listen to the first full episode
  • Jra4776
    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
    Awesome. Really enjoy this podcast and the host. Great work. Definitely recommend.
  • Georgiamama
    ~Flawless~
    Rare cases which typically get ZERO publicity are ALWAYS featured here. So GRATEFUL for the work this podcaster does (!!!)
  • Lu's ma
    Ali is phenomenal!
    Your soothing voice and attention to detail are what makes these cases listenable to me. My heart aches for each child and for their parents, siblings, family and friends with every podcast, but you’re so sincere in your delivery of the story that I’m sure it’s of comfort to these heart broken mothers and fathers. *if you’re looking for a good case Ali, look up “Katie Worski, Charlottesville, Va” (it’s a local case from the 80’s and very much like the cases you report in your podcasts!)*
  • Bridget MW
    Love it!
    I love this podcast and never miss an episode. The host is respectful to the victims and their families and provides great details.
  • Regina Phelange85
    Good-needs a little smoothing
    Great info! Needs an editor and a little work on structure. I mean this in the best way. Some words were used wrong, and a lot of it felt rushed and emotionless. I think a little time and an extra edit will do the trick!!
  • Melissalynn603
    Top 5
    This has become one of my top 5 podcasts I enjoy listening too! Great story telling with facts and timelines that make sense. Sometimes with the fact based podcasts where they don’t have the chit chat back and forth you seem to lose some of human emotion about the atrocities told. I feel like I can feel the host’s emotions, warmth, empathy and compassion felt for the all the victims and families involved.
  • tate.serg
    Don’t let negative
    Reviews bother you! These kind of people should do their own podcasts and correct the different things they said you were doing wrong! We all know just because trolls can use big words, well it doesn’t mean they know the definition! Not to mention they most certainly couldn’t connect the dots on how to do a podcast! Ahhh Monday morning quarter back, everyone wants to pretend their one but no one steps up! Those kind of people should be ignored! Your doing a great job and getting better n better every episode! Your fan base is huge so stay focused on us! ♥️
  • Joey1234jojo
    Great show
    Love the writing, no nonsense and no personal opinions. Factual. The only thing that I don’t care for is all the silent pauses. I expect a commercial or something to start when she pauses, but it’s just silence. A lot.
  • greensugar4u
    Ali is STILL plagiarizing
    Ali is STILL plagiarizing other podcasts and articles!!! Not that you would really notice because she doesn’t cite her sources!! Listen to the recent Sofia Rodiguez-Urruita Shu episode. It is almost a WORD for WORD copy of Koala Crimes’ coverage of this case. It’s sad because the journalists and other podcasters who put in the work to cite those journalists and record quality episodes put in a lot of time. You could just credit them and this would be a non-issue.
  • maria_salahori
    Great detail, serious treatment
    I wasn’t sure what happened when “In Sight” stopped but am glad Ali’s still at it and really enjoy this podcast. Cases that are not widely covered elsewhere and great detail and narrative. Minimal advertising. I appreciate podcasts that are more about the cases and victims than the hosts’ appeal/rapport/celebrity.
  • anita rieck
    Amazing voice
    I love this podcast, it’s well told crimes and told very well with clarity, with amazing interest thank you for the podcast. Kathrinethebrave nana
  • Alexandra.777
    I can’t stop listening
    I love this podcast , the stories are told so well and so well researched. I also appreciate how you get to the story right away, on each episode, without the unnecessary chatter and giggles. I’ve also discovered that you have a quite a few other podcasts and Ive binge listened to all of them and enjoyed them all. I am always thrilled to see that you have a new episode out, it feels like such a treat. I think your work Is amazing and how wonderful (and grateful) these families must feel to have people like you to be their voice, as you continue to shine a light on their loved ones story. You’re an amazing story teller and your podcasts are a rare treasure among many ❤️

    People at SOOOOO Rude
    If it bugs you so much that an Australian with an accent doesn’t say every word exactly to your liking, DON’T LISTEN! GEESH… there are hundreds, if not thousands of podcasts out there, find one that doesn’t irritate you so much. I like the content, don’t care if she pronounces the name of a city incorrectly, or uses a word out of context, especially if I know what she means, but I would recommend a different editor. There are more then a few episodes that have sentences repeated more than once, as if it was changed to improve the flow, but the old part isn’t removed. Sometimes they sound exactly the same. Could probably benefit from a set of fresh ears listening to the entire episode before it’s posted. All in all, it’s a pretty good listen.
  • dbjll
    Love this show!
    I’m disappointed that listeners could be so concerned about word pronunciations from someone that obviously has an accent and not focus more on the cases she covers. I love that she covers small cases that I haven’t heard of but more so that she’s bringing awareness to the victims and their cases. She does a fantastic job!
  • TrueCrimeFanMelissa
    Love it!
    Very thorough details and I appreciate that she covers relatively unknown victims and their stories. I do find it sad that some have criticized Ali for mispronunciation. Clearly she’s not American, so of course there will be words pronounced differently than what some are used to. Keep up the great work Ali!
  • Heather cheer

    This episode is all jumpy. Near the middle to end of the show, I think the editing is off. Cuts words, just doesn’t flow like usual. Love the podcast!!
  • MandyPina
    One of my top 3 fav. True crime Pods.
    I absolutely love this podcast sooooooo much. I am subscribed to many many and this is in my top 3, absolutely amazing 😻.
  • shoegirl139
    I really like the pod cast but
    The way she mispronounces names, cities, car makes, and so many other things is the worst. Also who really cares if you come off as making judgment. I assume you are just telling the story there is no reason to keep saying you aren’t.
