EmmyJack1234Confused about frequency of episodesWhy did this all of a sudden come back with a sole part 4 of an episode?
-
BonnieloulouReally good podcast!I like the dramatized stories a lot! I enjoy listening to Vanessa. Greg is wayyyy too nasally.

alehouse85How do you not know Ammvtyiille is in NY.What kind of researchers do you have? How could you have dropped the ball that bad??

Irishgypsy88Amityville episodeI have very much enjoyed listening to these Conjuring episodes. For the most part, I let the little mistakes that slip through your fact checkers slide, but in this episode, it lists the Amityville Horror house as being in New Jersey, both in the script and in the episode summary. This town is in NEW YORK. That is so well-known and is such a simple and obvious error...I am quite disappointed in this oversight. Come on, Parcast. Be better.

Al Long IslandWrong locationJust listened to their Amityville episode. They got the location wrong. Amityville is on the south shore of Long Island, not New Jersey.

camdenbeeI really wanted to like this, but alasI was enjoying the first few episodes I heard, until I got to the episode where Chelsea Manning was deadnamed. There was no reason to do this - the narrator could simply have explained that she is trans for the sake of the backstory, and clarified that her former name would not be used. Not only was she deadnamed at the beginning of the story, but after stating her current name would be used, again her deadname was used. A bit more research into current journalism practices could have easily prevented this.

ElleHelleBarmaid? Really?Parcast is consistent and you know what you’re getting. Love that truly. With. That. Said! Unsubbed from all Parcast today bc honestly BARMAID? Let’s ask everyone if they’re on their period with that language. Honestly. As a career barTENDER, that speech threw me for a loop. Horrified.

CarolC4Too many crossovers, cheap production, sexist.This is a Parcast problem in general. If I wanted to listen to an episode of one of your other shows, I would download that one to listen! Advertising other shows is one thing, but it feels like half the season of any of their programs belongs to another show. Also, the topics are interesting, but get your facts straight! And please, PLEASE check your toxic masculinity. Ironically, Tales is the only podcast on your network which I feel even tries to explain historical context and isn’t completely sexist.

thunderhagIgnorant, poorly researched and out of touchThe portrayal of women in general on this show is piss poor, but the way this show portrayed Elizabeth Short - who has a name - was disgusting.This program took a woman who is brutally murdered and wrongly portrayed her as a drunken “ bar fly” rather than actually doing any research it would’ve showed that she had a very troubled and tumultuous childhood. Additionally she was simply trying to survive with virtually no family support and a time we’re options for women were virtually nonexistent. Absolute trash - do better. You have more resources than many podcasters, yet others don’t seem to lack basic empathy and social awareness.

sarahelizeOh how I wish...I really wish the journalistic and academic integrity of all of the Parcast podcast offerings was better. I am always interested in the topics they choose, but the fact that the “reporters” don’t even disclose their last names, much less any of their sources, makes me doubt every word. The campy tabloid-like delivery makes everything worse. I now actively avoid Parcast shows because I’ve been disappointed so often.

jamamajdjwjsvrhLove this!I love this podcast. I fell in love with it after their Roaring 20’s series, and am listening to the Princess Diana episode now. :) Perfect for long commutes and rainy days.
-
Linden330Love the story, hate the narratorI love parcast and I love their true crime research. But I hate this woman’s nasally voice. Almost feels like she is trying too hard. 😭😭😭 So instead of 5 stars, I’m gonna take 2 stars off because that’s the reason I stopped listening to this.
-
midgjettReviewVery well done. Thanks

Patrick :3Crime in the 20’s? Sometimes it just takes Parcast to make true crime awesome 🤗When I first started listening to it I was astounded 😯 when I listened to it made me cry tears of joy because it covers crime in my favorite decade: the 1920’s. Here’s to many more great new podcasts by Parcast 🥂🥳

October76GreatGreat story lines.

skyebosmashParcast’s Narrators are RobotsAfter trying to listen to several different shows from the Parcast network, I’ve found that, no matter the subject, the podcasts are incredibly boring because all of the narrators are so terrible. If you like radios shows from about 1934 then maybe the delivery of these stories will interest you, but for the most part it’s fairly cringeworthy and just plain awkward to listen them try to speak like they’re 🤖 totally 🤖 natural 🤖
-
Krystyle 27So much potentialYou have some good stories on the Parcast Network. You voice actors and narrators are terrible. The tone and why they say things sounds like they are telling stories to children. Get some better voice people and if love your stories. The o my one I can tolerate is Survival...and I’m cringing over the voices and tones but, loving the stories. Get a clue! Look back through your reviews.

Beccaann2390GreatScary stories told in the dark sent me and it was a great suggestion

Zelda 1013Parcast continues to be terribleMade it partway through one of the Halloween episodes. Continued the parcast traditional combo of “wait is this actually a human talking?” and being vaguely condescending without deep or interesting research. I want to learn something new, not feel like I’m being talked down to by Siri reading a wikipedia page.

Midway42“CE”The only thing scary about this podcast is the use of “CE.”

abbadonnaBoring and the wrong kind of CreepyI was looking for something to binge-listen to after finishing Morbid the true-crime podcast, this came suggested to me on Spotify and honestly, I'm offended that this was recommended to me. I tried listening to about 5 different episodes, stopping about 5-10 min in each because they were so boring to listen to despite being interested in what the subject was. I kept switching thinking maybe I just don't like this particular episode but after a while, I gave up. Also the last one I listened to "Season 2 Halloween: The Poison Dress" (wow sounds spooky, love the idea), the narrator was this older guy trying to talk from the perspective of a teenage girl and it just got creepy and kinda gross to listen to an older man give this semi-sexualized perspective of a 16-year-old girl. Like maybe its just me but I dont know women who talk like this. Thankfully I discovered "My Favorite Murder" right after which I can't believe Spotify didn't recommend first.

palechickAmazingSome people do not like this but I personally love this podcast I play it on my drive to and from work🤣lol😂
-
AmyellieFakest Narration EverI’m really into the subjects that are covered, but it’s almost ruined by the narration. It’s like a caricature of intense news reporters. Be chill.
-
Rudys iTuneStop pausing the Story to push your Podcast!! It kills the mood!!One thing that grinds my gear is too pause the story just to push your podcast for advertisement. Totally kills the vibe!! Do it in the beginning and end, I’m okay with that but not in the middle of the story!!
-
Bootsieak9Love this!Great podcast, looking forward to the Halloween podcast segment !
-
CulperJrAnother Topic?How about the improbable story of the 1969 New York Mets? I know it’s sports, not hard news, but still one of the greatest sports stories and upsets.
-
sbjonesSo far, so good.My parents were married August 1969, two weeks before my 18 year old daddy left for Vietnam. They just celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary & I thought this podcast would be a great way to learn more about that year. I agree with other listeners that the woman’s voice in the first 2 episodes was very annoying, but I don’t hear her in episode 3. Maybe they figured it out!
-
w.neverAre you kidding meThis narration is abominable. Turned off after 5 min. Is the female presenter even human? Who talks like this?
-
Drea2550PassWould be great if the hosts weren’t so weird. Over dramatic.Silly
-
hithere85HiStonewall Riots!?
-
MommadoodleThe female voice 😑Her voice is so dramatic. I listened to the first episode and stopped. I don’t care how interesting the content could be, if I can’t enjoy it I’m not listening. There’s another one like this...great, interesting content, well produced, but they do this same thing. She talks, he talks, just like they are reading a script: your turn, my turn. It’s weird. No thanks.
-
cheeseburgers are godSo many mistakesThe Tate murder episode has lots of errors easily fact checked. The 4 victims in the house were not sitting around the coffee table! And the rope was not out around all their necks. I had to turn it off after that “detail”.
-
j67755Great content, annoying voicesFemale voice is so affected. Need to take it down a notch.
-
toritoritoritori3Just get to thePoint already! Enough chit chat and making listeners go hunt down the second episode online
-
Yam.FabLove it!!!Definitely recommend it!!! Listening to this makes work go by so fast!
-
Erotica?What?I mean... at least get the dates correct. I’m on episode 4, and they just said Dr. Martin Luther King was shot on April 3rd. It was April 4th. With such a matter of fact type of podcast, you should at least get the dates correct. No feeling / just reporting.
-
_IzzyJSuch a great ideaAbsolutely love this, hope you do something like this again.
-
EntropycatI don’t understandHow is this different than listening to the actual podcasts? I already am subscribed to most of these. All it seems is repetitive if you have. Am I missing some main point?
-
Hotsailoretteomgloved this please make more like this!!

Liquid DiamondzAnother podcast ruinedAnother podcast ruined with computerized narration
-
lauraleybExcellentThe amount of information is splendid. Most of the host are great. Except the host of Ep 12 Manson, she is extremely flat, monotone, and nasaly... I had to give up her.
-
traceylynnevaGreat content - less than great narrationThe content in all of these episodes is excellent, production is clearly top notch, BUT the narration is like pulling teeth. Imagine two people sitting in front of a group of 1st graders, reading to them incredibly slow, and pausing to show the illustrations to the 1st graders. That is how the flow of these episodes are. It is all clearly being read... super slowwww annnddd drawwwwnn ouuuttttttt.

I hate rock bottomBoringMade Manson murders boring how?

KrisK88Too repetitiveGood info but some of the two parters are too repetitive. Seems like they were trying to fill time.
