Prefer the podcast to the shows half the time
Wanted to love this…
But I can’t.
A classic for a reason
Have been a fan of CWO since 2015. Just realized I’ve never written a review so here it is - So grateful for the thoughtful and insightful discussions about each true crime property. I feel like I’ve been with the show as it’s evolved and it’s the only one I’ve stuck with this long. Will always appreciate the discussions and have felt like I’ve grown up with Kevin, Rebecca, Toby and Lara!
