    Best vocal podcast I’ve found yet. Also easy listening to because it’s thorough, & explanatory updates if your following numerous podcasts.
  • Aroo81
    The Luigi Mangione Epi
    Incredibly biased show that plays like propaganda for the corrupt private insurance industry. Is it? Judge for yourself. But Comparing Luigi to the Unibomber only separated by looks? Talking about how people should just be more positive on social media? As if that will fix the broken system that Luigi was outraged by. The ick factor from this host and his guest left a nasty taste in my mouth. Go work for the insurance companies and call it a day!

  • Suzannah Troy
    Thank you for talking about truth and lying and account
    I’m a victim of a violent crime at a doctors a false cross complaint a series of violent threats. One before a whole is punched in my retina by medical receptionist office manager, who is not fired or arrested when I sued her boss who allegedly had taken Hippocratic oath and mocked me And the violence he admitted that he never interviewed her for the job but he said she’s exemplary and he takes her to drug parties. It goes on and on he lied that the attack did not happen on his property until we showed him video which he admitted watching prior six times I guess his observational skills aren’t that good but he’s a successful doctor because he bragged about how much money. NYPD detective john Vergona who is now Netflix hero falsified police reports downgraded very serious crimes to fabricated mutual assault when it was a one-way attack there’s photos of me holding bags. My arm was numb. It goes on and on and he lied in Appeallate he didn’t know that I’m Jewish and that he was gonna arrest us both on Saturday and my attacker confirmed that is not true. She confirmed only I was to be arrested the woman she targeted from the moment I sat down at the medical office. She knew that I was a patient. She lied and so did her boss like one example they lied that my doctor moved out 3 to 4 months later when she moved O
  • Candy Queen😘
    Heavily biased
    Scott holds women in much lower regard than men. You can hear it in the way he speaks about them, he doesn't even realize he's doing it. 😂
  • Nice n Easy 308
    Best Way to Start My Day!
    I listen to Crime Talk every morning while getting ready for work. I really enjoy listening to Scott and appreciate the stories he covers and the way he covers them. I don’t always agree with him, but I don’t need to agree with everything a person says or does to appreciate them.
  • gerberadaiseu
    Makes the law makes sense
    Scott always has a great show. I have been following him for about two years. I love how he breaks down what has happened in court so that it is easy to understand. Your Dumb Criminal is always a hoot to hear. Great job Scott!
  • PsyHawk50
    Your morbidly
    I understand you have a “ right” to see what you want. But you have never had a major event happen to your loved ones and it shows. Had something happened to you I guarantee you would not want this on display. It’s apparent you cannot handle it. The courts got it right. Certain things do NOT belong in public. Too many nuts who cannot handle reality. This has no teachable value. Ignorance and stupidity abound , your a clear example of why the courts sided the way. they did. Your lust for gore ….. thank God for the courts!
  • Dunkin Do
    ❤️ Back!
    Thank you for coming back. I love your podcast and I just left living in Central Park (formerly Stapleton) in Denver for the past 6 years. We go back often and all summers are in Granby🌄 Ski with us next spring in BC!
  • zakbjk
    Good content until he
    …Interjects his political commentary. Less creepster talking points, more law, and then I’ll give more stars.
  • Review OP
    Weird with women
    I like what he talks about until a women’s issue comes up, then he starts with cringey and creepy comments.
  • PleasePassThePepper
    My favorite snarky attorney
    Thanks, Scott and Team, for your coverage on the daily events going on in this crazy world.
  • Pstat102079
    Not so subtle politics
    After listening to a few episodes, I thought this show would be apolitical. I was wrong. Scott should either come out of his “FJB” closet or cut out the not-so-subtle political commentary. In the meantime, I’m unsubscribing.
  • Lalalalala0908
    NOT a bipartisan podcast
    Super right-wing and silly
  • Devine Ms D
    Good info at times
    When he shows political bias, at least he is right. Banging noises in background sound like they are in my home when wearing airpods, and have given me quite a scare at times when home alone, so would like to see them edited out.
  • llcccbbbppp
    Heynow
    This is a crime talk podcast but many words are bleeped out that describe the crime. I don’t understand what the point of having this podcast is. It tells you nothing.
  • hollzballz33
    Used to love this…
    Can we please include ANYTHING other than “full Lori callow audio”…?!? I’m over it. Bored to tears.
  • avg physicist
    “Full” Audio
    Full audio isn’t the complete audio for the Vallow trial. Calling it “3/4 complete audio” would be more accurate.
  • Am497
    No trial today 4/18/2023
    I love your show so much . The fact that you have aired the Daybell trial everyday is amazing . I listened for over 15 hrs this past weekend. I know that no trial yesterday . But what about todays trial are you going to post it. Can’t wait to hear the day , thanks for what you do
  • Butterscots26
    Right-wing baloney
    Dang. I was digging this podcast and then you had to go all the way right with the typical talking point: ‘the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun, is a good guy with a gun’ AFTER A SCHOOL SHOOTING! And then you’re acting all offended on others’ behalf because they were called out for using, intentionally (like you did) or otherwise, someone’s incorrect pronouns. Why???? Why do you care??? Bigot.
  • Abbazabba84
    Addictive
    Scott’s distinctive voice has become a favorite in our house. My teen even recognizes which podcast I am listening to just by his voice. Love the point of view from a defense attorney. He hasn’t posted all week and I am having withdrawals, definitely an addictive podcast.
  • Ganja Grammy

    Murdaugh Fact Check
    Ep 11/10/22 House keeping: Alex Murdaugh was visiting his mother with dementia at her care home. NOT his father in hospice. That’s why she can’t testify to his whereabouts- unreliable witness. Pls check facts thx. Cadence- Can you please complete sentences with a legible sense of inflection and audible punctuation. I honestly can’t tell when one point ends and another begins. Please stop the random pauses & just complete a sentence with normal cadence. Pleaseeeeee!!! begging ❤️

    I listen everyday. Love it. Just wished you covered the Kristin Smart trial as it was happening. Not sure why you didn’t. It seemed like a huge miss. I’d love to hear why you chose not to.
  • b4butnolonget
    Why not just rename it the Daybell Vallow podcast?

    I’m watch Scott ( Crime Talk ) any time I can. He is very knowledgeable and gives very helpful information, he gives it from a defense attorney point of view, which is very important to understanding both sides of the case. I love this “ show “ it is one of my most favorite ones to watch.
  • AR_mom_of_3
    Glad I found this podcast!
    I try to keep up current events, true crime, and court proceedings and this podcast helps keep me informed. It gives a short rundown on the current trials of interest around the country. I’m not a legal anything, just an interested citizen; the host breaks down the legal jargon in understandable terms. Glad I found it!
  • Mfoster2015
    Amazing
    I love this show! It’s informative and just gives the facts
  • cant find an used nickname
    What an idiot
    Just listened to this for the first time and find him so annoying when he pronounces Virginia Giuffre’s name as Jeffrey. I’ve seen other comments on Instagram, so I’m sure he’s doing it on purpose, does he think it’s cute? It makes him sound like an idiot!!!

  • Sarah Sietta
    Stop
    I get you’re being passive aggressive and all but can you please stop saying Duggar, rhymes with hugger, every single time you say his name? We know you were annoyed by being told you pronounced it wrong before.
  • staleilin
    Lovvveeee this podcast!
    This is my fave crime podcast!! I listen to it everyday! I enjoy hearing Mr. Reisch’s thoughts and explanations regarding each case that he discusses.
  • Aileen -
    My new favorite podcast
    I love and attorney about cases. Scott is smart and makes it interesting.
  • McAud
    He is biased and whines about negative comments
    He was tolerable, but seems to think he’s some kind of genius, and often gets the facts wrong. He will mispronounce names and won’t let it go when corrected. He referred to Derek Chauvin’s trial as the George Floyd trial, like a dead man was being tried for his own murder. I’ve tried to keep listening because he sometimes discusses interesting cases, but when he started claiming “often imitated, never duplicated” I had to stop. I understand he’s some peoples cup of tea, but I find Emily D Baker and other attorneys to be much better sources for legal breakdowns.
  • LisaReuscher
    Interesting, sensible and humorous.
    It is refreshing to hear an attorney speak about the top national crime stories.
  • mrspclary
    Listen every night.
    I love this show. Scott has a way of bringing insight into these criminal situations, with a lot of knowledge and insight not to mention his humor and sarcasm! Very enjoyable.
  • Betty Draper74
    You are not Anchorman!
    This would be SO much better if Scott did not try to speak like he is a newscaster circa 1998. When he speaks conversationally, in a NORMAL human voice, it is much easier to listen to. This could be a pretty good little podcast, but his current speaking style is intolerable.
  • tdfjoffjudrhio
    Subjective
    You can totally tell you have a one-sided speculation of George Floyd’s death; even though you claim to try to be subjective. You clearly think he died due to drugs. Even if he were dying of drugs, emergency personnel should have been saving his life rather than severing it. It’s called being subjective. Even if he were to become conscious and combative, the police are trained in other ways how to handle that other than cutting off airway and circulation.
  • juju736252949
    I love this show!!!
    Scott’s show has become my favorite podcast on the internet!!! He is so smart and humorous and it’s the best part of my day. Found him on YouTube and listen every day !!
  • 3ica
    Unbiased and entirely fact-based, and educational
    How refreshing it is to have a true crime-based podcast without any of the unsubstantiated speculation that the genre typically attracts! I found Scott on YouTube and I’m so happy that the videos have been converted to podcast form. This is by far the most factual and unbiased true crime and occasionally current events-based show I have found. I can honestly say that I know more now about how the justice system works from listening to this; Scott explains complicated topics effectively and without patronizing the audience. A true example of level-headed and logical thinking, Scott’s dry sense of humor keeps things entertaining as well. Keep it up, Crime Talk!
  • Nullity
    Needless to say ...
    Take a drink every time he says “needless to say” and you’ll be wasted every episode.
