One of my favorites

Always a good listen. I wish I could get his Biographics in a podcast also.

Yea Boi

Simon Whistler is an absolute Legend. He is the best multi platform media artist. Being a fan of Simon’s formal leaning YouTube channels(Biographics, TopTenz, Etc). I was pleasantly surprised to find Business Blaze. When Simon mentioned The Casual Criminalist the countdown to greatness began. Simon, Blaze on like I Legend we know you are!

Great series here and on YouTube

I found this by watching Simon’s YouTube videos of these readings and I am very glad to be able to listen to them here as a podcast while I am driving.

I love his clear enunciation and his asides and reactions make me laugh.

Love the Whistleverse

Bit odd just hearing Simon talk without the grandiose gestures, memes, and beard. But his voice is incredible to listen to. Appreciate the way he and his team approach true crime, with adequate respect and relevant (factual?) information.

really enjoyable crime podcast

Im a fan of all eleventy bazillion of Simons YouTube channels, and true crime, so this was right up my alley. There is just something about the format of Simon reading a story and reacting to it that I really enjoy. The scripts are well written and researched/informative.

Simon is the bombdiggity

Absolutely love Simon! I love his YouTube videos and nearly cried tears of joy when I found out about this podcast. His humor in these episodes is fantastic and is helping me survive The Covid Depression. I truly enjoy learning and it seems to stick with me better when humor is involved so these podcasts are perfect. 10/10, highly recommend!

Unread script

My favorite thing about this podcast, or Channel depending on if you're on YouTube, is that Simon has not read the script, and that makes it seem like his reactions are more genuine then someone who has read their script already.

I could listen to Simon all day. I'd consider myself an OG Legend, I remember when Simon had a chin, and no children
