Very in-depth crime podcast! Esther is a great host, the stories are very well researched, and I find Once Upon a Crime to be one of the Best Crime Podcasts I’ve listened to. Highly recommended!!!!
Love this podcast. I am a true crime fanatic and dibble and dabble in different podcasts. This one is in my Top 3. Love the story telling, the details, the pace, the arrangement and the variety of types of stories told here. Keep up the great work.
I am almost caught up!! I love your podcast. I’m listening to the one about Doe Roberts. I lived near Eads Tennessee when I was a teenager (97-04). Everywhere your talking about I know most of it. I couldn’t believe I had never heard of this case. I’m glad you did an episode about this. Thank you.

Such a great podcast. Thoughtfully and carefully scripted, and well-delivered. Even for famous crimes, she delivers so much backstory and explanation that I never knew before. So good.
This is one of my favorite true crime podcast. The episodes are super informative without going into so much detail you get bored. There is always a line between not wanting to gross out the audience with all the gore of crimes and giving all the details so that you can understand the crime and it’s depravity, Esther walks that line perfectly. Big plus too, I read and listen to a lot of true crime and she has still been able to dig up interesting crimes that I haven’t heard of.
I love Esther's delivery of tragic and disturbing information. She allows for the listener to be suprised on their own with the lack of emotion in her storytelling. I am in the business of Mental Health and it is very refreshing to have information delivered in a more "clinical" manner with the absence of personal opinions and unnessary information. I love other podcasts that are "silly or tongue and cheek" too, but like I said Esther's Once Upon A Crime is a refreshing change! Thank you and keep up the wonderful work!
I was not much of a podcast listener until this year and i started listening to different ones and asking around what is people’s personal favorites. my girlfriend recommended me this one and i was instantly hooked. She does such an amazing job at all the details and findings she gets for these podcasts. just an inspiration for me to make my own!
I found this podcast while searching for more true crime podcasts, and this one has now become one of my favorites! If you can't get enough of the True Crime genre, you won't be disappointed. Each episode is part of a series and in that way it's a little different from most other true crime podcasts. For example there is a series on killer kids and that would be the theme for each episode in that series. Great work Esther, keep it up!
This podcast is one of my favorites. It has a great storyteller , lots of information and every episode is told in a way to keep the audience captivated. Highly recommended.
This podcast is always good. Esther always stays straight to the point. I appreciate it! She is wonderful at what she does! I recommend this to anyone that loves listening to true crime!
This is a great true crime podcast! It's unique in that the hosts tells it in story form. I love that she chooses stories that aren't overly publicized, and I love her sense of humor! She chooses a new topic each month, and then picks cases that follow that theme. It's a lot of fun!!
