I have been listening to true crime podcasts in the states for years and just now stumbled on this gem. The hosts have very good insights and thoroughly research every topic they discuss. Highly recommended!!

I’ve been listening to Seeing Red for a few years and love it! The episodes are always very interesting and well researched. Mark and Bethan are genuine, empathetic and kind.

This is a long overdue review of what has become one of my favorite podcasts. Mark and Bethan consistently present often harrowing stories with empathy, compassion, sensitivity and consideration for the listener as well as for those who might have a personal connection to the episode. I love their honesty, friendship and their chemistry all of which makes them relatable and are key to the podcast’s success. Thank you Mark and Bethan, I am so glad to have discovered Seeing Red.

Listen from the US and find this to be a really interesting podcast. The views and the personalities of the hosts are exactly what keeps this podcast unique and relevant. Keep doing what you do and don’t change.

Mark and Bethan host a fantastic show that delves into all kinds of true crime with no geographical limits. With them alternating stories each week, their insightful opinions, witty banter and respect for each and every victim - I cannot wait till the episode drops. If you are new to the show, start now, because you have a fantastic back catalogue to get through.

Love the show! Mark and Bethan do a fabulous job with choosing their material and writing the narrative. They are great together and tell interesting and comprehensive stories. The best!!

Mark and Bethan are very thorough in their reporting of the wide range of crimes and events. I love their banter and obvious respect and affection for each other. Sometimes the stories are just too horrible so I skip them, but that’s no judgement against Mark and Bethan; just my personal preference. I look forward to each new episode because I know it will always be interesting and I have learned so much about people and places I’d never known before.

Absolutely a 5 🌟 true crime podcast!

I’ve been listening all this since the beginning, and have never left a review before. I am updating my last review to see how shocked I am that anyone would leave one star and say this is a political podcast. That is an entirely triggered person who needs to go outside and touch grass. These two are not political. That is ..insane. Old review: At first, I almost gave up with some of the early episodes. But now, its my fav! this week Bethan sounded worried about solo show— I’m here to say – awesome job Bethan! But we LOVE Mark so much, too. Well done in every way, guys.

They hate conservatives and their storylines are politically picked to sway people as if liberals aren’t killing people daily. She actually makes fun of men who aren’t able to find love. It’s

lol at these 1 star reviews due to having an opinion fragile Trump supporters don’t like. I highly enjoy the compassion for the subjects you cover and extensive research. Keep it up.

You ruin your credibility when you repeat the nonsense heard on CNN. if you want to talk about politics talk about your own. The UK seems lovely at the moment. Repeating nonsense about Trump you hear on the mainstream media makes me realize you don’t do serious research.

See above

I was surprised when I saw your show only had a 4.4 rating. I am from the US and for those who rated you poorly because they took offense to how Trump is perceived; well I am sure you got it right. Anyway, politics aside, your research and content is good and it is presented well too. Thank you.

was a disgrace…i’ve loved this podcast for years…sadly…this is my last listen…and to anyone who thinks i’m being dramatic, I DO NOT CARE…

Has there ever been a follow up to the age of Natalia Grace? How is she doing these days?

I love this podcast. They tell the victims’ stories respectfully and that’s extremely important to me. But I also love listening to it because of the hosts’ voices. While both of their voices are nice, Bethan’s in particular is so lovely to listen to. Highly recommend.

There is no need to shame parents for occasionally using babysitters when they go on holiday. I’d like to know how many children you each have? We don’t all have the luxury to leave our children at home with their grandparents so therefore rely on babysitters so we can at least have a date night. Parents are people too!

I like this podcast but stay away from politics that you don’t know (i.e. US politics) You guys get info from the main stream media so I understand that your perspectives of the world is limited. Too bad.

Hello! Love your show but Trump was the greatest president because he was not part of the establishment. He worked for the people, but if you listen to the mainstream media you are not getting the true facts. He in no way is what they say and was working towards exposing the government corruption which is even worse now than ever. I have unfollowed many shows for political narratives being inserted into the program. I listen to get away from politics.

Do you get your info from CNN??? That is not the way most of America thinks, no matter your ignorance on the subject. Trump was nothing like a dictator and he did more for black people than any other president in modern history. Do your research. Don’t be idiots.

It’s too bad that these two can’t stop with the politics and their very biased opinions. The actual true crime stories are not bad, but really are only half of the podcast - the other half is promoting a very very liberal agenda. To be clear, I actually usually vote democrat. This is just hard to listen to. Unsubscribe

I found you, because I love Picture the Scene podcast, and they have mentioned you many times. I love the quiet, respectful tone of your podcast. I love that you don’t interrupt each other. I love that you actually think things through and occasionally change your mind after you’ve talked about it. You are doing an amazing podcast and you should be so proud of your work! Thank you for what you do. I know how much effort it takes. 💜💜💜

Honestly only gave 2 stars to be more fair because I only listened to one episode. It was the most one sided and biased spin of this case. It completely painted the VICTIM in the wrong light. Almost as if it was made by the people who lost the lawsuit. Complete government level spin tactics. This is referring to the season 6 premiere Natalia Grace.

I like how direct and to the point they are and they tell the stories very well. And… for the record I think Amanda is guilty as sin!

Is Bethan the Mary Poppins of crime podcasting? Absolutely! Great stories that are well written, along with adorable accents keep me anxious for the next episode. Is it to early to inquire about a tour?

This is a great podcast. I’m a Patreon supporter so you know how much I love it. But tonight when Mark said someone complained about Mark talking about old cases, my response was whaaaaaa? Why in the world shouldn’t a brief recap of an old case while using that as a compare and contrast! Great job, both of you and talk away about old cases!

Stories are interesting but way to much chatter and back and forth banter taking about what they know. Constant reference and comparison to other crimes covered. Mark and Bethen talk just to talk making it difficult to concentrate on the story! They both are obviously self centered people.

Used to like listening to this but then there are commercials every 7 minutes and by the time you get engrossed in the story you get a commercial and it ruins everything. Too bad.

I thought this might be a great find and I honestly gave it a good try (at least 10 episodes) but the quality is incredibly poor. Basically it’s Wikipedia. Which can be okay for light listening if the hosts are enjoyable but they’re worse than the quality! Mark seems rude, ignorant and small minded. His verbal skills and vocab is very limited and make it very hard to listen to. Bethan just seems to say ‘oh my god’ and ‘I just don’t know’ all the time. More than a waste of time, it just annoyed me. They are also both very judgmental and don’t seem to share any relationship with their listeners. Rather than other True Crime duos who genuinely have an interest I think they are here for money!

I much prefer British podcasts and y’all are awesome! I love your humor and banter, just wish the episodes were longer! My only complaint is that I’m American 🤣🤣 love you guys, thanks for what you do and I agree that trigger warnings shouldn’t be an expectation but I’m not a snowflake so that might not be a popular opinion. Just know there are some of us that agree with you guys! Sending love from Midwest US ❤️❤️❤️

great podcast with a laid back vibe. the cases are well written. mark and bethan have appealing voices and great chemistry. a new favorite listen.

This is a very well researched podcast. I like the banter between the hosts, and the cases are not cases that I have heard before. Love the storytelling. Great job Mark and Bethan!

This true crime podcast gem covers a great variety of contemporary and international cases, all very evocative and intense. The cohosts are charming and casual, like listening to friends tell you a story,and episodes are thoughtfully and compassionately discussed with a perfect touch a light hearted banter.

I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts and this is definitely one of my favorite. I look forward to it every week. Mark and Bethan do a great job of picking interesting cases. They also do a great job of writing the shows and being light with banter at appropriate times in the story. I would highly recommended it.

I turned this off immediately after one of the podcasters said that Kim Wall’s stories sounded “Boring”. Disgusting and immature.

Couple of youngish people with poor verbal skills. The woman talks baby talk and seems to be channeling a California Valley Girl. The guy just blurts out opinions based on, well... nothing-just a lot of chit chat. I’ll just go read the Wikipedia page. I gave this another go and it’s still awful. I cannot understand the appeal to so many, but agree wholeheartedly with the negative reviews. Must be an age thing. Or education. I hate all the so-called banter, wasted time, and the ADS. But the content is not there to make me subscribe.

Didn’t even make it to the podcast. That ad.. wowza. Sorry hosts. I hope it doesn’t deter others.

Bethan, I’m glad you’re okay and still podcasting! I was concerned when Bob started doing Twisted Britain alone. I stopped listening for a while because I was sad. I’m glad to have found you again and I love this podcast as well. The chemistry and content are great. Bethan, my apologies for being such an idiot! Your podcast is still fabulous and you’re still not Nadine. Lara Jaeger

really like the hosts but by the time the actual story starts i’ve lost interest. takes nearly ten minutes of promo .

Love from America!! I love you guys, whoever said your voices are annoying is a total asshat!! If I could have any other voice and accent in the world, I’d pick Bethan! One of the things I say when I recommend your show is always Bethan’s beautiful voice! Keep up the awesome work!!

From the research to the writing to the way they speak and banter, this has quickly become a fav podcast. I love the breadth of topics to include the Ukrainian orphan and Kim Jong Nam

I absolutely adore both hosts, they both seem like good people, easy going and they have great voices. I have loved every episode and am also a Patreon! Highly recommend for everyone but specifically if you are American and wanting something new and fresh that is true crime related!

The Maxwell’s what? A plural does not take the possessive!

Mark & Bethan not only cover cases that are fascinating, but do so in such an empathetic way, from the perspective often of the victim. The human aspect heightened. And yet somehow they manage to inject humor too, with their adorable banter... perfect formula

The podcast is very appealing thanks to their gentle handling of the difficult themes

Even though the subject matter is awful you guys always find a way to make me laugh while listening without ever being disrespectful to the families involved. You are definitely one of my favorite podcast to listen to. I’m a late comer so I started with most recent seasons and working my way back to the beginning 😁

I LOVE this podcast! They are so cute and witty together, they leave politics out of it, and they are well-researched with wonderful voices! Thank you for indulging my love for true crime! :) Maunalee -Cherishing Childhood Podcast

I am really enjoying this podcast! The hosts are very knowledgeable and very well researched, and I love their chemistry! Funny, gripping and addictive!

Love this podcast. Love the interaction between the hosts and love the cases they explore!
