Just listen. Totally worth it.

This is the best podcast ever, whether you like SVU or not - although if you don't, what kind of monster are you?

Funny, interesting hosts and a great format. Each episode is a recap, plus a recap of the true crime(s) the episode is based on, and then a guest interview with someone involved with the episode, be it in front of or behind the scenes. You also wouldn't believe the star power of some of these guests.

The podcast doesn't run in episode order, so part of the fun is never knowing which episode from which season they're doing next. This allows for a lot of range as the show matures and characters come and go. The hosts have live shows too.

Just listen. Totally worth it.

SVU fanworthy

Love the hosts! The friendship, banter, love for Mariska🙌 I listen every week and do the rewatch of the episode. Guests are delightful and it’s nice to hear their behind the scenes tales.
