Into the Killing will detail the crime, the investigation, and the resolution. Besides examining cold cases that are solved, Into the Killing will also take a look at the history of forensic science and how that has changed the world of criminology.
Criminally Listed Presents: Into the Killing
The Criminally Listed Presents: Into the Killing podcast is a must-listen for true crime enthusiasts. As a fan of their YouTube channel, I was ecstatic to discover that they had ventured into podcasting as well. The level of research and dedication put into each episode is evident, and it's clear that respect for the victims and their families is a top priority. Not to mention, the narrator's voice is absolutely captivating and adds an extra layer of suspense to each story.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the way they cover lesser-known cases in a concise manner. It's refreshing to delve into these obscure cases that may not have received widespread media attention. The narrator has a distinct and sometimes monotone voice, but as someone who grew up in an area where most people speak similarly, I find it soothing and easier to get used to. Additionally, the episodes are well-paced, allowing listeners to remain engaged without feeling overwhelmed.
However, one aspect that some listeners might find frustrating is the slow pace of speech. While I personally enjoy the calming effect it has on me, others may prefer a faster delivery. The long pauses between sentences can sometimes hinder the flow of the episodes, making it difficult for listeners to stay fully attentive. Nonetheless, in more recent episodes, there has been improvement in terms of appropriate pauses and a slightly faster pace.
In conclusion, The Criminally Listed Presents: Into the Killing podcast is a fantastic addition to their already successful YouTube channel. With its well-researched content and respectful approach to true crime storytelling, it guarantees an engaging listening experience. While some may struggle with the slow pace and monotone narration style, these aspects can be easily overcome by adjusting the playback speed or getting accustomed to it over time. Overall, I highly recommend this podcast for fans of true crime seeking unique and lesser-known cases presented by an excellent narrator.
