Well done
why bother making this when there is already a hit podcast Crime in Sports? A poor substitute.
This podcast tries to make a story where there isn't one.
I listen to a lot of podcasts and I have never found myself yelling out loud. This POS forgot to read about humility in the Bible.
I am a Christian, but I find it infuriating to hear this guy talk about Jack not having a moral compass because he didn’t go to church as a child. Give me a break.
Awesome job on the podcast, Will there be more of the sneak?
Sorry, I got so bored with Jack Murphy. It was interesting about the jewellery heist but then ho hum boring listening to some old guy avoiding questions with banal ramblings. He was a crook with a huge ego. That's all.
Good riddance! This man was pure evil no matter what he claimed to have done in the second half of his life.
An inner tube? 😂
I thought this was fiction!
Seemed good until I got attacked by ads on episode 4. I have a premium membership so it’s not the carrier. 🤯
This is a great story. Outstanding JOB!!!
I love this story.. but, man, those eps are so short!
I always thought that Monroe would be a kinda terrible place to live. The fact that they expect others in their community to help rebuild a house actually changes my mind a bit.
Disappointed.
it's a good story and kept my interest but why make six super short episodes? It's obviously only enough story for 1 normal length episode. maybe two. I'm assuming it's about being able to cram as much ad time in as possible.
loving this podcast, hope you will be doing more in the future on other stories!!! I enjoy this so much, wish the episodes were longer!!!
Love the story but this guy is NOT a victim of circumstance. He simply made poor choices throughout his life.
D.B. Tuber! CWASSIK, 2 thumbs up 👍☝👍☝ whoever coined that1!
love this so far
