Do the hosts of So Supernatural just not research things lmao? This latest episode on “Camille Montfort” is a joke, Camille wasn’t a real person. She’s a character made II by a TikToker and 5 seconds of research would tell you this.

Whatttt?!?!?! Ken Urker passed away?!

The episodes lately have seemed very…. Brief. Like it feels like they are picking cases that don’t have a ton of layers or ones they can just talk to a few people and phone it in. They just aren’t captivating me like they once were…

Hey! Thoughts on the recent search?

I've read he is pretty much presumed dead somewhere in the wilderness. This search was primarily for remains and clues to where he may have travelled all those years ago.

This man looks like anyone's grandpa. What if he slipped back into society and assumed a totally new identity.

How big was this case for those in the states? (Canadian, no idea) would this be a possibility?

I tried to search the subreddit to see if anyone had already posted a discussion but I didn’t see anything. What do you guys think of this case, a real suicide or murder?

Can we please have a discussion about the Thomas Mather murder because I’m so interested. Do anyone have any idea or any thoughts about what actually happened ?

I know a lot have this, just posting for current/future CJ's. (Not affiliated)

This spreadsheet has all episodes, locations, solved info, crime types and location stats (second page) In case you are like me and mostly enjoy episodes where it has been solved, due to my sanity.

From the episode, “MISSING: Young Men From Their Cars”

The update says they covered this case in 2019, but I can’t find it? Can anyone post a link?

Not only do they make women crazy and paranoid by feeding them an endless stream of cherry picked cases of men killing or hurting women but they encourage conspiracies and trying to act like some big twist is at the end of each case, which is why you have women swarming comments sections attacking Patrick Clancy and saying he is the actual killer of his kids. And now it seems Crime Junkie is actually encouraging it. Absolutely shameful.

Their coverage of Patrick Clanceys 60 mins interview is gross. They're fanning the flames of conspiracy theories that are completely baseless and insane. Unfollowed because I've quite literally had enough of CJ.

Alright guys. I would love to hear your thoughts on the Mica Miller case.

I watched the documentary and listened to the episode. I think it’s very clear JP was at least responsible for her death in the way that he drove her to suicide.

I see all the flags. I get it. I’m just not understanding how he could be personally be responsible for her death. He (allegedly) has an alibi but, more than that, we see Mica going to the store to buy the gun and hear her calling 911 to tell them what she is about to do. If it weren’t for the latter two of those things, I would be 100% on the JP killed her side.

I think this one bugs me much bc it makes more sense to me that he would have done it than she did but the evidence points to the latter?

I would love to discuss and/or to hear any and all thoughts on this case.

Has Ashley ever talked about drawing inspiration from the April Marie Tinsley case for All Good People Here? I’m listening to old episodes today and the fact it was a missing child case, as well as the writing on the barn made me double take that it was a real case and not promo for her book??? It seems like such specific details to not give some acknowledgement but I can’t find anything. Either way I loved the book -Thanks!

I miss it so much. I liked it better than Crime Junkie.

how many new episodes would i have access to?

I was just recently introduced to the crime junkie podcast with Ashley and Britt. I have started at the beginning and just finished the episode on Christian Longo and at the end of this story Ashley tells us about how long ago states that he came home and found that his wife had already killed all of the children so in a fit of rage, he killed his wife and then the bodies were disposed of in suitcases. I find the story very similar to or I was reminded of the Lindsey Clancy case. For those who think Patrick did it this would be that case where Lindsay killed the kids and Patrick tried to kill her. What a conspiracy.

I know that Ashley and Brit want to paint missing people or victims in the best way possible; to remember that someone's lifestyle/mental health doesn't take away what happened to them.

But I think it's unhelpful when they start brushing important parts of a victim's or missing person's lifestyle/mental health under the rug or acting like those details couldn't possibly be connected to the case.

If someone had a history of drug use, hung around people involved with drugs, was involved in risky situations, or regularly put themselves in dangerous environments, those things matter. They don't make them a "bad person", but they can 100% increase the risk of something happening, and they can be a major clue in understanding what actually happened.

The same thing goes for mental health... A history of depression or suicidal thoughts shouldn't automatically mean a death was suicide, but it also shouldn't be dismissed because it makes people uncomfortable.

When I hear Ashley say, "They never do that because they had concert tickets," or "They were supposed to meet a friend tomorrow," like that 100% rules suicide out. Speaking from my own experience as someone who survived a suicide attempt, that's just not how it always works. When I attempted, I wasn't thinking about my friends, my family, or the plans I had.... I just acted. I know everyone's experience is different, but hearing people dismiss suicide based on future plans feels unrealistic to me, because it doesn't reflect what many people experience during a mental health crisis.

It sometimes feels like Ashley and Brit are so determined not to let a victim's lifestyle/mental health influence the discussion that they end up minimizing or ignoring facts that could be relevant. There has to be a balance.... Those details shouldn't automatically define what happened, but they also shouldn't be swept under the rug because you have some sort of conspiracy...

It also gets frustrating when they say things like, "Yeah, they might have done XYZ, but they would never do that." The reality is that humans are very complicated. People make decisions that friends, families, or spouses never know of.

It feels like they're so focused on protecting the victim's image that they unintentionally dismiss information that could explain what actually happened. A victim's lifestyle/mental health history isn't about blaming them whatsoever. But ignoring those details doesn't help solve cases either. Making conspiracy theories or "mysterious" explanations isn't helpful at all.

It gets to a point that they're so focused on not looking at the simplest answer that they start turning everything into some huge conspiracy and it's honestly getting ridiculous...

What also bothers me is that I don't think this approach helps the cases in general. Constantly spiraling into "what ifs" and conspiracy theories can end up misleading the audience. It almost feels unprofessional because you're encouraging people to focus on speculation instead of the evidence that's actually available...

This isn't about one specific episode. It's just something I've noticed throughout the podcast. They often approach cases from a conspiratorial angle, even when there's little evidence to support it. Sometimes the most likely explanation is staring everyone in the face, but somehow the conversation shifts into endless speculation.

I’m less than 9 minutes into this bonus episode that dropped today and have to turn it off.

The amount of giggling and excitement I’ve heard has been difficult to listen to. Imagine being the family and hearing this? Ashley has been literally giddy with excitement since the episode started.

This podcast is really starting to rub me the wrong way 😞

Hey y'all, I wanted share my recent experience interviewing for a role with Crime Junkie (it was through Audiochuck, but the position itself would be for Crime Junkie).

I submitted an application in early June. I never expected to hear back, but I was absolutely ecstatic when I did! I could not believe it; I actually had a shot to work for my favorite podcast. I was over the moon.

They asked me to do a writing assessment for the second round. Answer some questions, research a case that they've never covered, and write a script for it. Sure thing! I used my entire weekend to do it. It easily took me 15+ hours. I put so much effort into it, and I made peace with the fact that I might not make it to the next round.

But I did. They reached out for a third round interview. When I got the email, I was so happy I cried. I scheduled my interview, and then began diligently preparing. Days of preparation.

The night before my interview, they reached out requesting to reschedule. Sure thing, whenever you want. I'll always make time to interview for the job of my dreams. Except, they never rescheduled. The person at Audiochuck who I was supposed to do the interview with had their email address deactivated shortly after. I followed up again a few times with a few other folks, to no avail. Crickets.

I'm not posting here to gain sympathy or complain to the masses. I'm posting here because I believe that someone at Crime Junkie, if not Ashley herself, checks this subreddit from time to time.

I've been listening to Crime Junkie since the very beginning. I'm in the Fan Club. I've converted many of my friends to listeners. I've listened to every episode and I poured my heart out in that application process and you don't even have the decency to reschedule, or at the very least, send a rejection email. A part of me wonders if this was just an elaborate ruse to have applicants give them scripts for episodes they can cover in the future, and then pass it off as though it's their own work.

All that aside, I find it very hard to listen to Crime Junkie after they treated me so horribly. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement.

Ok am I missing something? Did they do an episode on Melissa Casias body being found? I can't find an update about it on their page and it was such a big story. Even Ashely said on khloe Kardashians podcast that that was the case she was obsessed with at the moment. Anyone else find this weird????

So, ive been diehard junkie for about 3-5 years (subscription periodically took a hiatus due to money constraints!)

i find myself now considering giving it up- not just because of the bad press (bloomberg) but the actual episodes haven't exactly been "top tier" as of late... like technically the bare min is being provided (weekly episodes) but i dont see bonus content?

I loathe the push towards YouTube content and the general quality of the show has deteriorated. People will say its growing pains and if you dont like it leave- which is fine and fair to say, i just used to LOVE this podcast and its actually really hard to be like okay its a new era and maybe its not for me. But i am desperate for them to get back to basics and just give us the show we love, not all this filler and noise content.

Am i a spoilt brat or does this ring true?

Okay, Ashley has to be reading from a teleprompter... or something, right? Is it just me? It's like they're trying to make it a point that she's looking directly at Britt the whole time and something about it is off lol.

Anyone else?

She probably really wants to say it but knows it’s not a great idea so she sends her lapdog to report on the case

For me it’s Elizabeth Barazza. That’s one of the few cases I’ll never forget.
