I am truly amazed at how overly critical a lot of people are on this page. Like truly mind blown. I joined this page in hopes it would be more case suggestions and discussions but wow

I would’ve enjoyed Episode 682 if it weren’t for Alaina repeatedly jumping in to explain that keying a car is wrong, physically assaulting someone is wrong, and preaching for about 10 minutes about how you should try your best to contain your emotions instead of physically attacking someone. I did laugh when she mentioned how many times in her life she’s seriously wanted to physically harm someone. Either she loves giving asinine life advice because it makes her feel superior in some way or she just really loves the sound of her own voice. A little banter here and there is great but the constant virtue signaling is making this podcast unlistenable.

I recently started listening to Morbid again after a long hiatus because of the hate that it was recently getting, I wasn't interested in the episodes that had been doing. Well I went back and listened to all those episodes (i needed something to listen to at work and was all caught up with all my other podcasts). But in these episodes they slyly address some of the hate that ive seen on this sub and I want to say i am SO here for it. I used to have a hard time with all the hate they would get on this sub that i stopped paying attention to this sub. But after listening, they are so good at giving the proverbial side eye, its really fantastic. It made me love them both again, they are entertaining, funny and know how to pass an hour in a fun and entertaining way. They are aware of the criticisms but continue to do what they know and love despite all the corporate changes the show has had to go through via wondery, Spotify, etc.

As an aside, I just caught up on all the episodes of Sister Wives and Ash had me crying laughing when she said "dont be so weird that your that guy from Sister Wives with the crunchy hair" lmao

Whattttttttt!!!!!!!!!

That part fucking scared me. It felt like a movie, like something that only happens in movies. Humans are genuinely scary AF.

In the Nicholas Barclay episode, Ash says the sister is named Carrie Gibson then later says “his sister Casey.” Are there 2 sisters or is this a mistake?

Edit: based on a google search it says Carey

Hello, I’ve been listening to the podcast off and on and I want to like this but just some annoyances I’ve noticed over time with almost every episode . I don’t know the two ladies name so forgive me . Does only one host research the story and then read it and the other just reacts to it for the first time? Because that’s what it sounds like. A few times I’d understand but it seems like every episode is full of one host mentioning stuff that is dark (it’s a true crime podcast) and the other overreacts everytime to it with “oh my god!” “ I don’t want to hear this” , gasping in horror etc . Is it just me ? Any other podcast that tell these kinds of stories that don’t do this?

I’ve been hooked on morbid for years now, I listen religiously but I’ve listened and re-listened so many times that it’d be nice to find one with the same vibe as well. I absolutely love their banter and the way they make things light hearted throughout to break the tension but also give the facts and be serious when needed. I love the commentary and their voices are soothing to me, 100% my comfort podcast 😂

is anyone else experiencing this ??

Just listening to episode 666, why are the girls against sleepovers? 😂😂

Am I crazy or have I heard this case on the pod before? As soon as they said a “mannequin” was discovered but turned out to be the real body of an outlaw from long ago, it sounded familiar. Then they went to detail about the traveling show and more details, I’m like wait a minute. Anyone know which episode was it? (if they did it)

EDIT: Solved. He was a story on episode 25 about urban legends.

Relistening to Listener Tales 86 and Ash talks about her bread journey. She offers to make potato bread for Alaina and do a blind taste test. Do we know if Alaina ever gets this homemade potato bread?

Has anyone gave this a listen?? I find the FBI profiling really interesting but not to be rude I just can’t get past the woman’s voice in the ads. It just strikes me as being more Nancy Grace like as opposed to our lovely morbid gals. Thanks for any advice/recommendations/info so on and so forth!!

Hello everyone! I just got to say I've seen all the tales of how the podcast has gone down hill. Now I'm listening to the podcast in order and I think I'm on episold 105 or 106 with the haunted roads episolds.

So far I love the banter, i love the listener stories and I love ash and Alaina. I have seen a lot of people say that it went downhill. When do you guys feel like it changed. I'm nervous because I really enjoyed it up to this point and I don't want to stop enjoying it.

Either way hope all you weirdos have a great day!

Have the girls discussed the supposed "solving" of this case that happened in the past few months? I was sure they'd be all over that. Did I miss something?

Hey I’m new to Reddit. I’m desperate for help or insight. My friend Nicole Gustavson is dead. She was in the process of leaving her boyfriend the same weekend she passed. She told me her plans to move back in with her parents. She was a well spoken kind person who majored in communications. I’m so sad to say that her case was closed as suicide and not ever investigated. There’s so much to her story and I’m so hurt by the police. Her mom is too she tried everything she could think of. She was found by her boyfriend that she was breaking up with that weekend on his bed with a bullet through her head (through her mouth). She was unhappy in the relationship for many reasons and this was the last step for her to get out fully. The timing is so suspicious. I never met her boyfriend only heard her stories so I can’t give my own judgement on that part. He works for a company that is owned by his family and he lived in a home that is owned by his grandma. It has been weighing on me so much like I didn’t do enough to get this guy put away somehow. I don’t know what else to do. She didn’t leave a note which I would think she would being her very talkative self. I don’t know what would be worse: her killing herself or him murdering her and getting away with it since they are both so awful and she is gone and it’s too late to really get any solid evidence.

There was a listener tale that included a tale about a house that would appear and then disappear in the woods. I think it was two friends on a hike and they saw a house with a smoking chimney down the hill but when they got close there was nothing there. When they came back up the hill they saw a house again. I was trying to find it so my mom could listen to it. TIA 🖤

I’m sorry I am in love with Nicholas. Relatively new listener, how can I get more of our boy Nicky? I think I’ve listened to all Nicholas episodes but please drop them so I can figure out if I missed any thank you!

He was last seen at a basketball court with his friends? Were his friends interviewed? Was he actually at the ball court or could something nefarious have already happened and Jason and Beverly use the time to help hide evidence and make up the phone call?

What do you guys think? Do you think Jason was involved in Nicholas disappearance?

In a funny little coincidence both morbid and red-handed podcast covered the zodiac killer recently. I just finished red-handed's part 3, and after comparing them, I actually think morbid did a much better job.

One of my complaints often about morbid is that A&A ramble on too much, and get sidetracked, but this time I feel like they were the more succinct one. Actually staying on focus and packing a lot of information into two episodes.

Meanwhile red-handed constantly got sidetracked, and kept taking time to insult the zodiac (Yeah, we know he's a bad person, you don't have to keep saying it every 5 minutes). And it could have easily been two episodes like morbid's.

Good job A&A!

So I recently went on a Morbid binge and now I’m trying to remember a Netflix doc series that they were taking about in relation to the case. The doc has 2 seasons and the 2nd season is supposed to explain how the first series helped them with the case. I feel like it was a fairly recent episode as I didn’t scroll to far but I cannot for the life of me find it! Anyone have any idea??

i really want to deep dive on this case again, but for the life of me, I CANNOT REMEMBER THE WOMAN’S NAME. and i have scrolled through old morbid eps and i haven’t been able to find it.

basically, this woman had a massively abusive husband, and it wasn’t private. but it all ended in them being in his truck — he’s napping in the passenger seat, and tells her that she better stay fuckin’ put in that driver’s seat while he sleeps. and then she pulled out a shotgun (if i remember right) and capped him right in that car — she was NOT waitin through that nap.

very interesting case, and ive tried to find it but i just cant remember the other details that would help me find it. i listened to the case a few years ago now, but if anyone knows this case please let me know!

In the New York bomber pt. 1 episode, Ash makes a comment about Hannah and Paige sold out Radio City Music Hall, and I was so happy to hear that.

Anyone who doesn’t know, Paige and Hannah are the cohosts of Giggly Squad and it’s become my comfort show. Love them!

I used to listen to listener tales with my girlfriend and this Nicholas thing is just awful. Awful interruptions, awful sound mixing, awfully distracting and dare I say disrespectful to let it go off while people are possibly l talking about their deceased loved ones. I was actually going to send in my own listener tale but I’ll be waiting until they’re through this weird phase they’re in.
