This is worth listening to. M. W. Phelps is thorough and straightforward as always. Great podcast for serious true crime fans.

Great true crime podcast. Most are short so perfect for a quick listen. Found M. William Phelps after listening to Paper Ghost. He is a great podcaster.

His 34 Fairview opinion is not aging well

It is refreshing to find a podcast that speaks truth about the Karen Reed clown show. So glad I found your podcast!

Very well done, unbiased. MWP seems to have great integrity and insight and only interested in the truth. His series 34 Fairview Road was excellent.

My new favorite!

First this is a great show! I listen to crossing the line everyday to and from work. Thank You M William Phelps for all your hard work and effort!

Great factual analysis and takedown of the free Karen Readtards and turtleprick. It’s horrifying that people that dumb are able to reproduce, vote, and serve on a jury. Can’t wait to see her convicted.

I’m not big into podcasts. In fact, 34 Fairview Lane by M. William Phelps was my first time listening to one. Yes, I am late to the party! Anyway, I first heard about 34 Fairview when Mr. Phelps was a guest on Opening Statements on Court TV. Intrigued, I decided to give it a listen. WOW! I am glad I did. Phelps absolutely nailed this case as far as I am concerned. I watched literally every minute of the first KR trial and I am convinced she is guilty of a DUI hit and run. Simple as that. The rest, from both sides, is just noise and propaganda. KR and team have made a conscious effort to manipulate the jury pool. The prosecution never should have charged murder. Hit and run resulting in death would have been more appropriate. Mr. Phelps drills right down to that simple notion and does it with extensive and yet unheard interviews from the actual people involved. Several I had not heard about previously. After 34 Fairview, I moved on to Paper Ghosts by M. William - again fantastic! Keep up the good work!

If you want to hear a one sided version of the events from the perspective of the Commonwealth this is the show. I don’t believe he took a moment to listen to the defense, using Turtleboy as his only guide. I was disgusted with the take on Proctors texts, and finding a woman who doesn’t mind being called a c**nt being the spokesperson of all women. I was looking for an unbiased take going into the second trial but did not find it here.

As always, Phelps provides the most objective reporting and analysis on another case. His respectful approach to “both” sides allows the listener to form their own opinion. I truly appreciate his honest reporting style!

I really like MWP’s presentation and take in the cases.

I loved Paper Ghosts and am now binge listening to Crossing the Line. M. William Phelps is knowledgeable and well spoken. No matter who wants to give him a hard time about his work, he takes a hard look at what he reports and provides the truth. Keep it up, and I’ll recommend to all my friends.

I like William's direct approach getting a lot of information and detail on a story in a short amount of time. Not a lot of fluff, very entertaining and interesting. Highly recommend!

Terrible “investigation”, biased, dull and boring.

I thought this was very factual and well done. Best Karen Read podcast I have heard.

He is one of my favorite podcasters! Keeps me interested-always.

I was looking for an investigative dive into this case that was more critical of innocence or alleged conspiracies unfortunately this was disappointing. Having watched the full first trial and all hearings since, and knowing this podcast was recorded after those dates, it was unfortunate that whole chunks of on the record information were largely ignored or misrepresented. The sound quality was good and it was organized but this podcast wasn’t the investigative work it claimed to be. The journalist actually started to come across hypocritical to me. If you want to fully understand what happened in this case and can’t watch the trial yourself, skip this one.

Terrible show hosted by a creepy narcissist. This host does the worst research & is so full of himself it's cringe. He such a coward that he turns off comments on his YouTube shows. It's because he knows he is a fraud in it for money not victims. All his shows needs to be questioned. I am hoping his allergy to the truth and facts get some meds. No thanks.

M William Phelps does a great job with this podcast. His insight and experience is professional and very interesting. Enjoy listening… thanks from New Orleans 😊

Great podcast! M. William Phelps does an amazing job!!

I love the way Phelps presents each case and the details included. He speaks in a way that tells the facts and gives dignity to the victims and families without giving the limelight to the perpetrators. Great show and I always look forward to each new episode. Keep them coming!!!

I greatly appreciate the empathy M. William Phelps clearly portrays for the victims of these terrible crimes and their families. He doesn’t go about his investigating irresponsibly. He cares ❤️

Material is presented in a comprehensive and storytelling manner!

I’ve listened to this show for about 2 years. And unlike most podcasts Phelps presentation of the cases and real understanding of the missing and the murdered is clear. His take and attention to deal breaks down these cases and I know that I’m getting an unbiased opinion. He also always has the upmost respect for the victims and the families.

Great podcast! Serial listener!

Love how knowledgeable & professional he is!

M. William Phelps makes this series as an old school journalist would have back in the day. As important, he understands what creating a good audio show is all about - having a conversation with the listener. If you are a fan of this genre, you will enjoy this series!

I am not a part of the free Karen read movement in anyway but I found this podcast’s coverage of this case to be so unprofessional and irresponsible. He misstates so many facts of the case & legal procedure. He uses so many fallacies like I’ve reviewed this many pages of reports so what I’m saying is accurate. I’m a criminal defense attorney and I’m appalled by his reporting. See what I did there (; But anyway as of today Karen read is innocent unless proven guilty because here in America that’s how it works! I have no idea if she did it but what I know is there is a lot of questionable things happening in the investigation and prosecution & I do not believe the state can meet their burden but I do not think anyone would ever know. Shame on MW PHELPS though for tearing apart turtle boy but then produces just as irresponsible “journalism” I hope anyone who listens to this podcast fact checks every single thing this dude says. I wish I could give this podcast negative stars.

One of the best true crime podcasts and hosts. M. William Phelps is a true victim advocate who shares his knowledge of intriguing cases including open unsolved mysteries.

Awesome!

I have listened to this podcast for a long time as well as Paper Ghosts. The work on 34 Fairview Lane was phenomenal. Appreciated the HONESTY

Thank you for providing a well researched podcast.

One of the things I love about CTL is how facts are driving the narrative. I listen to multiple crime podcasts and this one is unique due to Phelps ability to let facts and evidence tell the story. When he adds his opinion, it’s clear, he doesn’t pretend his opinion is fact. I look forward to each new episode.

Great podcast for a quick break in the day. The host is enjoyable to listen to and keeps politics out!

One of my first podcasts and still one of the best. Stands the test of time. Superbly done Mr. Phelps. Five stars!

Relaxing and terrifying

Thank you for your incredible reporting and passion for the victims!!

Great podcast! Keeps me constantly entertained in the gym. He’s honest, realistic and never sugar coats anything. Not just entertainment, there’s a lot to learn in life from tragedies if you choose to listen and learn .

I love everything M. William Phelps does. He doesn’t apologize for his opinions and tells it like it is. I love it! He is great at what he does!

34 Fairview is incredible, factual insight into the Karen Read trial that I had never heard. I love his research and deep investigation into the case. True and accurate facts. Not conjecture or conspiracy. Journalism is not dead, thanks to him.

M William Phelps is by far one of my favorite podcast hosts. Very passionate and empathetic towards the victims. I’m a huge true crime fan and really have a lot of respect for how Phelps tells the stories. Thank you for putting out a great podcast and always looking forward to the next one.

I look forward to each Wednesday for this podcast to be dropped! Great midweek break.

I always enjoy listening to M. William Phelps! I listen to his podcast each week. Crossing the Line is saved in my library. Thank you MW Phelps!

I have yet to listen to an episode produced by M. William Phelps that I didn’t extremely enjoy. Keep doing what you’re doing!

I have listened to all related to the topic that is on 34 Fairview and M William Phelps is the one reporter/investigator that has gotten this case right!

I listen to quite a few podcasts but ALWAYS look forward to anything he has out. His compassion and empathy towards the victims and their families is amazing

I love M. Williams Phelps storytelling style. Particularly 34 Fairview Road. Good in depth research

A great perspective and shows respect for victims and their families.

Phelps is a good story and does justice to the victims.
