Curiosity
I am only 3 episodes in and I am completely invested as if I was investigating this story. I have recently fell in love with True Crime podcasts and I was stationed in Louisiana for many years years ago. I am curious to know why in Ep 2 when you were asked by the son to let him know what your intent was before he contacted his detective Father because they didn’t want any business where you intended to prove he was. dirty and involved. Why didn’t you reassure them and let them know you were not trying to prove his dad was guilty and involved?
Low pitched ringing noise throughout
I really liked the show - bit all the low pitched ringing noises throughout the episodes drove me away. It literally sounds like “ringing in your ears”. I thought I would try to endure but it’s so bad I’m quitting the podcast.
Update please
This was a great podcast.. waiting on the update
