Great to binge

Great pod with a gripping case. It’s told in a very easy to follow narrative with actual audio from tapes and actual audio.

Follow up: I wrote the above review before finishing the first season. Having listened to each episode a few times (I listen at night and fell asleep) I feel I can offer a bit more depth. This pod follows the case of a missing Colorado boy and uses actual audio tapes (thus the name) to move the story forward and bring the horror to life. Each episode is covered by one host with a great voice and the host doesn’t make the events about themselves. As an avid podcast listener I fully recommend Tapes for those who are interested in true crime and don’t particularly want a lot of blather from the host/hosts. The story speaks for itself and the pod allows it to unfold in a way that will have you binging. I will also mention that the case is given the utmost respect and dignity for the family and doesn’t in anyway give you that icky feeling you get from other pods that just look to be a tourist in a family’s nightmare.
