    Great Podcast
    Found this podcast from watching Josh on another you tube podcaster. Great content, very knowledgeable and really hard to stump. Take up the challenge and ask a question that will have Josh thinking.
  • Capt. Rhett Snuggler!
    Top crime news/Personable chat!
    What a great, informative learned show. Josh is a knowledgeable So. Cal. attorney with such class, professionalism and just plain down-home legal chat. If you’re looking for fact-based legalese, informative true-crime tidbits, with great graphics and a professional presentation, search no more. The chat box is friendly, homey, and doesn’t give the “scaries” one tends to feel when offering opinions. It’s truly a fun place to be!

  • GirlRyan_82
    One of my favorites
    I listen to a TON of true crime podcasts and CC is in my top 3. If you’re looking for something that is based on less conjecture and more fact that also concisely breaks down the legal process into laymen’s terms, you should absolutely listen to Courtroom Confidential.
  • @imwillhenderson
    Appreciate you, Josh
    Enjoy your show, with exception of platforming Defense Diaries, a shill for Richard Allen’s defense team

    Great Podcast
    This podcast is very informative
  • Lolointhe440
    Informative and relaxing (can true crime be relaxing?!)
    I love this podcast, and Josh Ritter in general. His voice is so calming and dare I say dreamy? The show is informative, I learn something every time I listen. It truly adds to the stories, hearing the reasons why something happens in court the way it does. I feel like it’s a crash course in law school - the Elle Woods way - fun and educational. I don’t miss an episode!

    Great podcast
    Such a good podcast. I look forward to it every week!!
  • ChicagoListener241
    Very well done
    I love the unbiased reporting and the simple breakdowns for those not familiar with the law. Too many creators are putting judgement out on cases towards pro guilt before a trial even begins. We are all innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, thanks for keeping it classy and informative.
  • Hotrod&dolce
    I love Josh Ritter
    Smart, interesting and deep diving. He’s got a great voice too!
  • donna nethercott
    Awesome True Crime Podcast
    I love your podcast. Your wealth of knowledge of the law and the cases are great. I’m a no nonsense type of person so you just getting into the podcast without the fluff is 5 stars to me. An added bonus is your soothing voice.
  • medicshelly223
    Awesome Podcast, straightforward facts…
    I truly enjoy a podcast that is based on FACTS… This podcast is exactly FACT based information. Joshua is great in that his “case note” covers straightforward facts. Joshua does NOT give false/misleading information. In this day and time, with so much coverage on a wide variety of true crime cases, countless content creators are horrible at adding false information. Joshua keeps the cases FACT BASED. Thank you for your honest and fact based coverage.
  • MIGotus
    Excellent voice, excellent perspective
    I love Josh's straight forward, legally educated perspective on all the cases. Keep doing what you're doing, Josh.
  • lululovesradiohead

    Without Exception the Best True Crime Podcast
    This is the best podcast available if you’re interested in current true crime cases. Josh Ritter is exceptional at breaking down the legal elements and arguments and presenting them in a concise and easy to understand manner. If there were more people like Josh Ritter in the legal community, we’d all be better for it!

    Delightful Host, Outstanding Podcast
    As someone who had all but burned out on true crime pods, this one was right on time for me. Unlike so many others, I did not find a big ego in this podcast; instead, I found a host who is genuinely kind to the listener, a host who covers a range of cases with compassion and grace, a host who cares almost as much about the why as the how - who also happens to be a brilliant attorney with experience on both sides of the v. Deep dives, weekly updates, real-time analysis - there’s something here for all!
  • Mamma in the river towns
    Very informative!

  • Fatima Elreda
    Great True Crime Podcast!!
    I absolutely love the way Josh breaks down every current-event case. Also love him on true crime daily sidebar. I only wish the episodes were longer and each case was slightly more detailed, that’s how much I enjoy listening
  • Cait5000
    If you love court and/or true crime this is a must
    This is my new go to podcast for up to date, concise and clear information about what is going on in the true crime and courtrooms around the country. Josh has a knack for getting to the point while also providing the most interesting and compelling parts of the case. Leaves me wanting for nothing when learning about new cases. Appreciate this podcast so much and I’m a new avid listener. Thank you so much!
  • Becki1949
    Great podcast for lovers of true crime!
    Josh I love your podcast! I subscribed as soon as I heard that you had a podcast when I saw you on STS Nation. You were a great guest every time you were on. I binged listening to your podcast so now I’m all caught up & waiting for the next episode. Congratulations! 🎈🥳🎈
  • Hippiegoddess032169
    Not like other true crime podcasts
    Maybe it’s because Josh has worked both prosecution and defense, but I can hear how knowledgeable and passionate he is about the law. He’s also passionate about sharing his insight and love for it. There is no ego in his presentation of the cases he covers and that alone is so refreshing. Highly recommend.

    A wonderful podcast!
    Hooked and intrigued through every episode. Couldn’t recommend more!
  • IDriveFasterThanMyLSATScore
    Professor Ritter
    I appreciate how Josh takes on interesting cases, but isn’t shy about analyzing the technical legal aspects of the cases without talking over my (non-lawyer) head. I also appreciate that the show is completely apolitical, and doesn’t over-dramatize every case. The facts and analysis are always interesting in their own right.
  • Jake D
    5/5
    Fantastic podcast! Josh’s expertise in criminal law brings a unique and insightful perspective to the biggest cases each week. His clear and balanced approach makes complex legal strategies easy to understand. Highly recommend for anyone interested in the legal world.
  • sam18244
    Great
    Love this! Honestly super refreshing to listen to someone with actual expertise. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for something that examines both sides and doesn’t rely on sensationalism.
  • Chloe6732
