    Under rated host
    Podcast host & source material make this show . Very under rated, long running podcasts. No quarters drawn or given. If you truly want to know about human monsters , listen to this podcast.

    Absolutely my fave podcast. Love the info. Love the voice. Love how he triggers all the hateful dummies by being a caring story teller. Please keep up the good work. I impatiently wait for your podcasts every week
  • opossumgal
    love this guy, have for years
    amazing on yt and on here - and i love seeing how butthurt and emotional right-wing, overzealous religious folks get over his personal opinions, voice, etc. yall sound pretty snowflake-ish, i hear fox news is still broadcasting though so go get your brain rot on!! i will be here listening to this is monsters 🫶🏻
  • oldcaligirl415
    Wish I could give a zero!
    Never have I heard such a sinister and disrespectful podcast. This dude was repeatedly calling a man a woman throughout the whole episode. Calling a serial killing., graping, MAN “she” throughout the whole episode. A murderous man who dismembered victims and targeted and brutalized women his whole life! How utterly cruel and disrespectful to the victims of that freak! A man can never be a woman just because he put on a wig and lipstick. Surgery, hormones, nothing can change you! You’re so woke, you’ve fallen asleep. There could be no higher disrespect! YOU and the freaks your respect and cater to, are the monsters. Instant unfollow!
  • jmoney79
    Would be decent, but….
    The host is a MASSIVE libtard with a heavy emphasis on the ‘tard. Literally spent half of an entire episode defending an Islamic terrorist.
  • ThrowGlitterNotShade
    Excellent inclusive show.
    Straight to the point. Well-narrated. And i love that he provides resources for victims of abuse and also provides resources for the LGBT+ community.
  • Nothing Mann
    The best, simply
    All the details, none of the wasted chatter. Bonus, relatively few commercials.
  • MorganPeacock
    So confused
    I wanted to listen to the stories but its a hard listen. The story just starts right after the commercial ends and you have no idea what he’s talking about. Its like he’s reading from a book but we dont know what its about. Usually podcasts stories start with an idea about what will be discussed, but he just jumps right in with any information.
  • gonefishcaking
    Slow moving
    These later episodes all sound like he’s recording in an echo-y bathroom. Much easier to listen at 1.5 speed.
  • Allie 1567
    Still a great show,but prefer the longer format of early episodes
    I discovered this show last year and started listening from the first episode in order. The early episodes are fantastic with lots of detailed information and audio clips that made it stand out amongst the many other crime shows out there. Now the episodes are much shorter with less info and feel a little lacking. I also find the geographic trivia at the beginning of each episode unnecessary. Still worth listening to and the host does a great job of presenting the facts in a fast-paced manner with just a touch of cynicism.
  • PodcastTruths
    I don’t know you
    I don’t know you, your 3 daughters or your wife-and I shouldn’t. You seem determined to share info abt them. That’s not what I’m here for and is rather disturbing this day in age/granted the podcast subject matter. Stop exposing your female family members as entertainment. The describing a victim being found after a brutal crime on a date-“MY BIRTHDAY”-was beyond the pale. Way to overthrow the victim’s story by inserting yourself into their death. Way too much commentary, less *actual* info. I listen at 2x fast to get through it. Do better.

    My review
    I absolutely love this podcast, love the monotone voice, love how straight forward it is, love the audio clips. I love it all but I would love if you could do more longer episodes like Gannon Stauch I loved how much detail was given.
  • Thechrisbolton
    Long episodes!
    Please do more long episodes like you did with the Gannon Stauch case! I love how in depth you went with it, and wish all your episodes were like this one. I love this podcast, but it’s usually only 3 stars for lack of detail and substance, but if they were all like this one, it would be 5 stars easy, and possibly the best true crime pod I listen to!
  • Jim Jim Bloo
    amazing!!!
    Hands down the best podcast!! I’ve listened to these episodes over and over again ! …. Continue the amazing work!!! You inspired me to start my own
  • 12345Nikkiname12345
    Monotone but great content
    Love the content but so very monotone it’s easy to lose interest.
  • kookoo3000
    Original!
    What’s great and different about this podcast is the inclusion of audio from police interviews, testimony, etc and the host’s commentary. Makes for a more complete understanding of cases you thought you knew everything about already.
  • Aolgoogle
    Wow
    Great storytelling ! Straight to the point. Love the narration after the audio tapes bc I can’t always understand it.
  • Mbritton72
    Intelligence
    It's reassuring to know Jiles will break character and ad-lib when elements of a story demand it. This is effective true crime journalism narration.
  • Taxcell
    Great voice
    Great voice and storytelling

    Editor Needed
    This Pod either needs to hire an Editor, or should replace the one they have. Holy run-ons sentences, which are bad enough, but throw in the loopy yet jarring speech pattern to really make it grate against the brain pan. You know when you were a wee lad playing with a deflating ballon, eeking out it’s escaping air so that the sound pitches all over the place? The experience is quite similar to listening to this man talk. Also, a snide remark from the host here and there can be amusing… an endless stream of snarkiness, not so much; it just comes across as petty, but maybe that’s the desired effect? One or two quips per episode is plenty… most listeners should be able to cultivate their own thoughts and opinions… leave the echo chamber for daytime TV talk shows.
  • Spooky218
    Great!
    Great and to the point.
  • Kenman24
    Stick with the YouTube series
    Episode lengths are too short and vary too much between 10 mins and 37 mins. Just have 45 minute episodes like everyone else
  • Choclatte82
    Love it
    I love both shows, the research is deep.
  • VanillaG00ch!
    Love this
    So in love with this pod/YouTube channel. The research is deep and respectful. Little hints of humor sprinkled in throughout which is a nice palette cleanser. Also love the resources at the end! Just a very very well produced and extremely well rounded podcast.
  • whogivesa
    Terrific
    The minute I hear the theme tune, I know what follows will be a twisted tale, tightly told!
  • soch2000
    This is for you if you enjoy listening to court testimony and 911 calls
    This is for you if you enjoy listening to court testimony and 911 calls. I attempted to listen to the Nicole Latchman episode, will never get that time back. It’s like the producer is trying to stretch the length of the episode as much as possible by including the most mundane details from 911 calls and court testimony. You’re left wondering “why am I listening to this?”

The cases are extremely interesting to me and I love the autio clios from the interview and other things. Literally a delightful podcast you must listen to.

  • Ihatethisshit01
    Love this podcast
    The host’s deadpan and sarcastic commentary makes me giggle because it’s my sentiments exactly! I find it educational and entertaining.
  • Bkdebrn
    Bkdebrn…… Deb is LOVING it 🥰!!!!
    AWESOME!!!! Love the detailed well researched storytelling. Just became a consistent new listener. PLEASE keep it coming and I will be here to listen, enjoy and support your exemplary efforts. 💝
  • Not Tom Selleck
    Annoying voice
    There’s something in the Up and down pattern of speech that the narrator has that just annoys the crap out of me. Ending every sentence on the same down note is sociopathic.
  • wompwompretigga
    Amazing
    Well structured, well narrated, everything about this show is amazing. Jiles, the narrator is a really cool guy and I encourage whoever is reading this to check out their youtube channel which posts the graphics to these stories.
  • Citybluesgirl
    The commentary sometimes cracks me up
    Interesting episodes but I won’t listen to ones involving kids so I miss a lot of them. The commentary is sometimes hilarious when the criminals are called out for their dumbness or nonsense.
  • hdjgfhfhfhf
    It’s a woman with a voice changer narrating!
    This is my 3rd time giving a review on this podcast! I grown to accept his/her opinions but I would rather just hear the story! I like that they do their research and due diligence, I also like that they do many cases I haven’t heard before. If you can get past the opinion and diagnosis you come to enjoy and accept this podcast!
  • randymossengagfer
    This is AMAZING
    This guy is honestly great Ive been listening since 2020 and tbh ive geard so much I GATTA be in a watchlist by now 😭😂 keep it up you get me through my work days !
  • EPBQ
    Too much opinion
    Good details but please stop with the morality tangents and worse, giving relationship advice. Just tell the story. I also listen at 1.25 speed most of the time. Also what’s with all the Irish Christmas commercials?
  • highapprentence1983
    HOOKED🫶🏻😎🤯
    I happened upon the episode on the Disappearance of Simon and his cult, and it had me automatically hooked!!!! At the same time it made me wonder how I didn’t know about your podcast before then!!??! That was three weeks ago, and I have had a binge watching weekend after that very first episode!!!! You are a rung above the rest! I absolutely love the way you bring to life all of these true crime stories!!!! Many of the true crime podcasts are kinda like cookie cutter shows… It’s a breath of fresh air to listen to your show, and the way you bring these true crimes to life!!! You’re not like so many other shows. The way you treat each story with respect and compassion while at the same time making sure the facts are clear and correct. You are among the best in true crime podcasts!!! KEEP UP ALL YOUR AMAZING WORK!!!!! YOU ARE A REAL BREATH OF FRESH AIR!!!!
  • Cory from Kansas
    Great Podcast!
    Host is full of details!
  • jmeyers30
    I usually get obsessed and then fizzle out
    I really enjoy this podcast. I haven’t gotten sick of it at all which is weird for me. I like the facts and the the delivery but mostly I love your voice. Perfect for this subject matter
  • Bookworm86!
    Great show!
    I’ve learned about so many previously unknown to me heartbreaking and disturbing true crime incidences. A great show for any true crime fan
  • tempest53
    Great information
    I really enjoy the matter of fact way the host speaks on these topics. The tone of his speech is almost neutral which at first I was concerned would bore me but no it’s quite the opposite. He draws me in purely through the narrative he weaves. The stories are very good. Well chosen to suit my interests. I loved the first season focusing on filicide and ultimately have enjoyed how the podcast transformed into a more open ended format in terms of the types and styles of cases chosen.
  • Dittyknitty
    Wow excellent delivery
    I love the live clips! I love the opinion of the host, he says every single thing I yell or while listening to the episodes. I’m definitely going to support the podcast but he’s so dry and his voice is too monotone. But I do love this show! I love you but you did NOT do Mary Welch’s story any justice!
  • JazzBass13
    In my top 3 true crime shows
    This is Monsters is among the best!!💖💖💖☠️💀☠️🦤☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️. And as Jiles says "It's never a mannequin!"
