My new fav!
I love this investigative series! I came across Jen on TikTok and learned about her work and the story of her Aunt Linda who went missing. Jen does incredible work and has a way of telling these stories in such a compassionate and intriguing way. Can’t wait for season 4!
My favorite podcast!

If you actually follow Jen you know that the first 3 seasons are short-form and easy to listen to in a full hour. I prefer the shorter episodes since I don’t always have t...

Love this!
Informative and factual
I love to listen to Jen!! She has an amazing podcast voice, is informative and fact based. The story of Stacey is heartbreaking and frustrating, definitely worth a listen! What a frustrating story: that there’s a creep MONSTER out there. Yo, Bob… 🤬
Seemed pretty ethical to me..
Looking forward to a follow up on this case. I hope they can find the monster who did this. Listening to the retelling of the first psychic’s account of what happened gave me chills. Thank you for sharing Stacey’s story and job well done!!

Not only did he refuse to speak to friends and family and provide any assistance at all, this monster obtained legal counsel and refused to take a polygraph exam. This heartless and soulless monster murd...
