A well researched narrative
If you want a well researched narrative then this is a great podcast. We love her voice, sound quality is great and no banter with multiple hosts. Very good💚

One of the best true crime Podcast
I just recently was introduced to this crime podcast and I’ve been thoroughly engrossed in majority of the episodes. I especially enjoy her sense of humor. You’ve got me hooked and thanks.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I love how thoroughly Esther goes through the cases, and the way her sense of humor and disbelief comes through as she reads her script. The episodes being read doesn’t bother me at all, since how else would you remember all these wild twists and sequences of events?!
This is one of my absolute favorite true crime podcasts for sure.

Love It!
I absolutely love this podcast! Why?
1) The podcasts are grouped into interesting series.
2) As a true crime enthusiast, I find that several cases I have not heard of are covered and those I am familiar with are given a new twist.
3) Her voice is clear and soothing. Most of the podcasts are just her, saving listeners from having to listen to endless banter.
4) The stories are well-researched.
5) The theme song is catchy.

Great show!
There are so many stories that are covered in this podcast that are new to me. The stories that I’m familiar with are interesting to listen to again because of the way that the host tells them. Great job!

True crime crack
I listen to several true crime podcasts & this is my favorite! Esther always presents a well researched & engaging case. Her voice is practically hypnotic & she really draws the listener in with her analytical but engaging presentation of the cases. I love how she focuses on a new theme every month & eagerly look forward to her weekly release most every Monday.

Great show!
I think Esther covers all bases and facts. She loves her job. I found her a couple of months ago and have listened to every episode a couple of times. Great job!!

A great personality!!
I listen to multiple podcast every day. I think this is one of the better true crime podcasts. The producer really does her homework. I’ve listened to a short portion of an interview that I believe she lets her Patreon users get and it was VERY informative. I am going to sign up today to be a Patreon supporter. I think she doesn’t outstanding job. At times it sounds like she’s just reading from a script but it’s good in-depth information.

Love this podcast. No silly chitchat just straight to the story. Relaxing voice and interesting content. Thank you ... wish more were like you

Great voice, great story
I really enjoy Esther's voice and her telling of the story. What I think might take this podcast to the level is including more human interest information. This might include what happened after the crime or as an indirect result? How did some of the people in the story react or what happened to them afterwards? That I think is some of the most interesting aspect of a story.

True Crime at its finest

Solid
Well researched & paced. Cool idea with the themed mini-series style episode groupings. I do sometimes wish for a little more of the hosts personality in her tone, it’s a little mono. On the other hand, it’s pretty even handed, which can be a nice contrast from other podcasts.

Pro podcast- easy 5 star
Such a fantastic podcast. Terrific amount of research put into these entertaining podcasts. As wonderful as a good book. Thanks to the entire Once Upon A Crime team.

Great research!
Great content. The research is conveyed VERY well. Esther is incredibly concise and super pleasant. The research depth matches that of other podcasts with longer format shows but fits into a much shorter time slot. Great case history with above average objectivity.

The best true crime podcast
there are many true crime podcast out there, and the one i wait most eagerly for every week is Esther’s. Each episode is so balanced, insightful and rounded. Esther’s compassion and warmth really come through in her even, well paced delivery. Her concern for the victims is so apparent. While she gives the criminals an objective study, she never glamorizes, and I trust her accuracy. She never, ever goes for the cheap laugh, which is so easy to do with many of these cases. And I adore the little musical breaks! Those tiny tunes Invade my brain all week – a welcome ear worm!
