Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian • Apr 27, 2024
"...blimey, it’s a hot one. Levine is one of the best hosts out there, and her humorous delivery and script tweaks are a highlight...it’s simply a madly freaky rollercoaster tale, made even more fun by Levine’s genuinely “they did whaaaat?” commentary. A binge-er."

Anya G Spence • Podcast Rex • Apr 25, 2024
"...a thrilling mix of adventure and true crime. The podcast repurposes some of the footage to truly take you inside this story, and the effect is pretty horrifying as amongst many of the questionable decisions made..."
