Criminal
About This Show
Show Info:
Criminal is a podcast about crime. Not so much the "if it bleeds, it leads," kind of crime. Something a little more complex. Stories of people who've done wrong, been wronged, and/or gotten caught somewhere in the middle.

The “body farm" at Texas State University is a place almost no one except researchers and law enforcement are able to see, because it's one of very few places in the world that deliberately puts out human bodies to decompose in nature. Forensic Anthropologists observe decomposition in order to help law enforcement discern when and how someone may have died. We asked if we could visit, and they agreed.

Sounds like a PRX show
The production quality of this show is flawless, really easy to listen to. They bring in a variety of guests and cover everything remotely related to criminal acts from the traveling electric chair to leaving a giant Buddha statue in the verge.
This show deserves a spot in your playlist.

Great Show but turning to "Victim" not "Criminal"
I love this show. The production is great and the stories are great. The older episodes are better Imo. I am still absolutely a fan and listen to each episode but lately the show seems to be gravitating more towards "Victim" and less toward "Criminal" Just seems to be getting more in depth about the victim of a crime than it used to instead of just talking about the crime itself or the "criminal" committing the crime.

New Favorite Show
I first heard about this show on 99 Percent Invisible. It is now my favorite show to listen to. The host's voice, questions and narrations are lovely. Great production quality in general, with no silly sound effects.

Good and well structured
It's well structured but one thing is that the narrator/speaker sounds like she's almost whispering, I had to turn my sound up quite a bit to hear her more.

Criminally entertaining
1/2 podcast I listen to daily. I first heard about this show on 99 Percent Invisible. It is easily one of my favorite podcasts. Every morning Phoebe Judges' voice and questions take me into worlds beyond my own, and a little more paranoid of who is sitting beside me. An all around great quality production. As there are so many insightful topics and explorations of each topic, I really love when there is a two-parter, diving deeper into each nugget of the story.
