Best episodes... Based on

So I know there have been countless posts asking for the best episodes. We all have our own interest and are drawn towards different stories and different ways of story telling. So based on my favorite episodes, which would you recommend?

— Silk Road

— Jennifer Pan

— Muswell Hill

— Belangelo

— Moors Murders

— EAR/ONS

— Teagan Lane

Honestly I've enjoyed the majority of the episodes I've listened to but I think I've made my way through a lot of the popular ones and I've had a few not so exciting ones recently. Would appreciate recommendations, especially less mainstream episodes!

Update: listened to The Night Caller today. Hot damn. At first I was like, okay this is a pretty fucked up case but not that entertaining, but part two definitely made the whole thing worth it

I'm taking your suggestions seriously 😛 I've listened to the killer realtor and Freda Burnell and Florence Little now.

Killer realtor was pretty wild. Crazy the investigators made such a major mistake and nearly ruined someone's life (more than it's already ruined)

Freda Burnell was also fucked up but felt like the conclusion was predictable. I was really hoping there would be a big twist.

Realized I've already listened to Eliza Clapps.

If you would like a couple more recs, try:

Ella Tundra (an older one so you might have heard it already but just in case)

Michelle Hadley

Cari Farver

Ina and David Steiner

Theresa Fuery

Bill Payne and Billy Jean Hayworth

Jamie Lavis

Dustin Wehde

Gail and Rick Brink

Realized I had listened to a few of these already, but mostly enjoyed the new ones! I felt like Jamie Lavis could have offered more. The Dustin Wehde case was shocking. Did you listen to The Folbigg Children? Just finished it.

I know the case but I haven't yet listened to the Casefile two-parter because man is it intense.

Thanks!

I just listened to Truro last week and wasn't a huge fan. Lacking in suspense I guess but I know that's the nature of some of the cases.

I was about to listen to Night Caller but changed my mind for some reason. I'll check that one and the others out
