  • The Murder of Emmett Till

    The Murder of Emmett Till
    Nov 13 2024
    This is a rough one. It's uncomfortable. It's packed full of racism. It's typically exactly the kind of case I try to avoid. However, I was watching a documentary on this case about 2 weeks ago and had a realization: Not covering it is even more offensive. So here we are.

    Joe is one of my closest friends, and he has been for 15 years. This is his first actual deep dive into a podcast episode, so give him some slack (Even though I don't think he needs it)

Can't get enough of TCK!

Love the comedic dysfunction between Kent and Op. Looking forward to more from these two. Love you... NOPE!

Best True Crime Podcast

We love The Op and Kent! This is the best podcast ever, better than True Crime Garage.

the funniest and most non PC podcast about murder

I love True Crime Kent. I shouldn't but I do. the banter is priceless. it's inappropriate and often in poor taste but I'm just enough of a degenerate that I find it funny. props to Kent for the level of research! excellent work even if it's just a reminder of how awful humans can be.

crossing the line with the stereotyping

I do love Kent and Op but the gross generalizations of women and the crass language can be a bit much. I don't like recommending a podcast having to ad the caveat to dismiss the weird stereotyping and foul verbiage.

Top Notch Research

The indepth research and details that Kent is able to obtain, even the stuff you never asked yourself like "I wonder of that place is a subway now" is answered in TCK. The back and forth verbal playing between The Op and Kent is the best. The Op's innocence and Kent's in-your-face personality play off eachother perfectly. A lot of dark humor but also done respectfully for the victims and not-so-respectfully for the criminals. Highly recommend!!

The best

I couldn’t put my finger on what I liked about TCK at first. Just seems like a no BS kinda guy who doesn’t care what people have to say about him. Then it clicked finally. He is the only true crime podcaster who doesn’t virtue signal constantly. I HATE how every true crime podcaster is always like, “omg I 100% do not condone murdering your children” etc. etc.

Very entertaining podcast with a great deal of research done on all the topics he covered. TCK isn’t nearly as popular as it should be in the true crime world. Only downside is how infrequently episodes are released.

BEST PODCAST!

Both my son and I are huge fans! Kent's delivery and "don't give a fu* ck attitude" keep us laughing out loud! The banter with Op. is a huge cherry on top!

TCK is my favorite

Once I started listening I could not stop. I’m all caught up now and I eagerly await new episodes. Kent is so great at researching every episode and he makes me laugh so hard. His relationship with Op and their banter makes the show even better. I ♥️ TCK

ugh

Both hosts are so ignorant I can't listen anymore. The op thinks he's so great for not drinking but I heard you mention an oxy bout, you've been high, shut up.
