Best true crime podcast. Actually just the best hands down podcast. Keep doing the lords work boys

Have been listening to True Crime Garage for a couple of years now. Enjoy the soundtrack. Great show to listen to when driving around getting errands done. Nic & Captain take time to know their subjects and go out of their way to tell a full story. Proud fan!

I’ve been listening since episode 1. This is a great podcast. The captain trying to be funny gets old real quick but that’s easily overlooked because it’s just a great listen.

I listen to a LOT of true crime podcasts and turn to this one a few times a month. The content covered by Nic is pretty good and thorough. I wish the Captain would just shut up and go away. He’s pretty insufferable with his stupid, sometimes tone deaf comments. When you’re hosting/discussing murders (this is for you, captain) it’s really not funny to randomly throw in a stupid remark in an attempt at humor.

Old episodes are subscbee only? Get over yourselves

Long time listener, first time reviewer. Great show, love the banter and respect they give to the victims. I also love the term douche canoe and heard it first here.

My fav true crime podcast! Been listening for years and they cover all the relevant cases!

Listening all day on my earbuds, while at work. Thanks you for keeping the world informed and updated on crimes we may never hear about! Danielle B Vermont

luv u

Decent enough podcast. Need to research pronunciation of the cities they site.

Have drank many a beer and mowed a lot of grass with this crew. 5 stars from southern Ohio

I used to be subscribed to several true crime podcasts now this is the only one I’m still subscribed to. Can’t wait for them to do Karen read.

These guys never disappoint. TC content, original music, all of it. Love listening. Plus, they remind me of the good natured teasing/banter my brother used to give me. I’m from Columbus OH (live elsewhere now) so this pod is excellent TC listening, plus a slice of home.

My absolute favorite podcast to listen to whether on the road, on the golf course, or at home. Detailed breakdowns with factual information. Great discussions of cases solved and unsolved. As a person who travels across the country with several hour long trips this podcast allows me to be entertained and engaged for hours at a time. Both hosts do a great job explaining the cases and having great conversation about the case and incidents. I love the occasional joke from the captain to help lighten the mood without being distasteful or distracting. True crime is filled with podcasts out there but true crime garage stands out with minimal ads, actual information, and quality audio. They actually focus on the facts and break that all down while keeping it engaging.

I won’t be listening anymore. Their coverage of the Corbett case was absolutely disgusting. They blamed the victim. Smh. Do better.

/ Episode length: 57 mins / Ads + Fluff ⭕️ ⬆️: 13 mins / Avg time between ads: 19 mins. / Based on episode: 813.P1. A SEVEN MINUTE ad break! Ouch. ============================. IS THAT 6.5 MINUTES OF ADS IN EPISODE 847?! Holy ****

True Crime Garage is an outstanding podcast. They present the narratives behind each case in a well-structured and sufficiently detailed manner, making you feel like a part of the story. You guys are the BEST!

Gotta say this is the first podcast that drew me in and it has continued for the last ten years! Love you guys! Keep the Garage Open!!!!

Passss…..the thing is all of u podcasters have the same content! & even though u work hard, if ur profitable, but so do i and the economy doesn’t allow for asides. Only the must pay bills & once their all paid zip zilch nada

How did I not know about this podcast?? I spend an ungodly amount of time on LA freeways and always burn through may latest favs in about a day and a half. Your podcast has saved me from reruns of my usuals. You guys have great chemistry and I always hear a new fact or detail about a case I’ve heard on multiple other pods. The only thing is Captain it’s the cut of your jib… I know you know that but it kinda drive me crazy as a longtime sailor!! But the show is so good I’m getting over it🤣

I love true crime podcasts and I’ve listened to a ton, but yours is the one I always come back to! Can’t beat Nic and the Captain! P.S. Check out their merch, I have three shirts and I love them all 😍

I listened to a bunch of different podcasts, when I started listening to TCG I let all the others fall back. Easy to listen to, understand, and enjoy. Keep up the great work guys, Love from NY!

Your coverage of the murder of Jason Corbett is abhorrently misinformed.

I agree 100%, but I worry for your baby! :)

This is my ABSOLUTE favorite true crime podcast. I listen anytime Im running errands with the baby and these episodes just go by so quick! Keep up the great work guys! I love how well researched each episode is. Absolutely my favorite for when baby is in the car with me—I don’t have to worry TOO much about the grotesque details coming through—they do a good job of explaining what happened without all the horrible grotesque details that some true crime podcasters really harp on.

Awesome podcast! But my ear balls hurt listening to you say Waukesha! 😂 It’s pronounced ‘wok-eh-shaw.’ It’s not Ke$ha’s home town. Can you please call out this correction for the many many Wisconsin listeners?

Bro it’s pronounced: WOK-E-SHAW! I’m from the South and I know how to pronounce it. Do better.

One of these two drunks thinks he’s a criminal investigator , and the other one is a complete fool! Unsubscribed (can’t listen to that idiot anymore) too many great podcasts out there!

Been listening since 2016… wanted to wait until I could REALLY give a fair analysis and review I guess? 🤣 Nick and the Captain stay in my weekly rotation and their show is the first one I refresh to see if there are any new episodes! I like that they cover a wide range of cases: old, new, ongoing etc… their friendship really comes through in every episode, the banter is authentic and doesn’t drag on, and they are very even-keeled regarding sensitive subjects which I greatly appreciate. 10000/10.

I have been listening since day one and they are still my favorite. Best true crime podcast ever!

I’m listening to the Oklahoma City bombing episode. I was 2 blocks away from the bombing. We lost a dear family friend and many of my coworkers had children in the YMCA daycare. This day was horrific, absolutely terrifying. You gentlemen have done an amazing job of reporting this tragedy succinctly. Thank you for all of your amazing reporting.

UPDATE April 2025)… Checking in. For some reason I missed listening to Nic say, “Grab a chair, grab a beer, let’s talk some true crime…” so I decided to listen for the sake of nostalgia. When “The Captain” said, “we’re like a fine wine, we’re get better with age…” or something to that effect, I must disagree. The show is okay, but the success must be attributed to a relatively low standard accepted by listeners. The guys (still) notoriously mispronounce common words and place names (simple preliminary googling can help one properly pronounce things), run laboriously long pontificating about subjects in which they clearly lack expertise. Almost five years and the basic things you’d expect to improve have not. They are complacent, oblivious to their own shortcomings as professional hosts, as many oblivious podcasters seem to be. That’s not to say that they aren’t great people, clearly the hosts care about the good in humanity, and they enjoy their beer. Maybe that’s why I still listen every few years. UPDATE (October 5, 2020)… Boooring. I wonder why I still listen. Honestly the best part of the show is the introduction, after that we are presented with extraneous dialogue, poor reading, and idiotic commentary by the captain. Most episodes are two parts now, which means more commercials and more time to listen to these guys babble. UPDATE (May 28, 2020): Most of the time I like the cut of their jib but I have to say that during the first Ahmaud Arbery episode I sat dumbfounded as I listened to the Captain ramble on with completely inaccurate information, bumbling through his opinions about the case. It was embarrassing. I was actually surprised to see TCG cover this situation so soon, and they probably shouldn't have touched it at all. Not sure if I'll listen anymore. Used to like the show but it's not as good as it once was. Previous review updates: Too many advertisements these days. Music and voices are adversely affected by over-compression. The voices sound squeezed unnatural, and music suffers from pumping. Otherwise nice tracks. UPDATE: Not digging the new dramatization approach. Hopefully the multi-part Shaker Heights thing is a one-off. The Captain is not a voice actor. If I want audio theater drama there are plenty of options out there. TCG was two guys talking about true crime. Please get back to the format for which so many people enjoy the show.

The Batman and Robin of my podcast listening!

I just started a YouTube channel making videos creating art and I binge your show every single time. Thank you for the quality podcast and all the amazing content it passes the time (positive thing) and I always know how long I’ve been working lol!! Thanks again. You have a true fan here.

I had to come back and hear Nick and Captain for old times sake. I listened for years until I stopped True Crime pods all together. I became way too jumpy in the middle of the night... I still think they’re the best to do it.

Not sure what all the hate is here; this has been my favorite podcast for 2-3 years now and I always seem to be coming back to it. I love their banter as it keeps me engaged (if you don’t like a little dry humor then that’s a you issue y’all) and listening eagerly.

Will you be doing hate shows on the trans community mass shooters ?

So good! The banter between them is the best and the podcast is very well researched

Wow. TCG used to be the go-to for true crime podcasts. Not anymore. There are better content and better balanced podcasts out there now.

Well done. A welcome change from an unsolved crime.

Love you guys! Don’t love the Gods Misfits episodes. I like your normal format. I found myself getting very bored and not able to pay attention to this one guys.

Not sure how I’ve been missing this podcast all this time, but happy I have so much to binge!

It may be interesting, but definitely not intelligent. Sorry guys, nothing smart or intelligent here.

I have listened to True Crime Garage with Nic and Captain, probably from the beginning! They are a podcast I go back to time and time again and typically is the first one I’ll listen to if I have a bunch waiting for me. I really just like the overall research that gets done. I like the banter and dynamic between the two hosts. I like the quirky statements made by Captain to the point where Nic will then laugh on air, which is typically a moment I tend to laugh out loud as well. I also like how Captain is the type of person who just says what it is. Which we all need someone like that in our lives keeping it real. Thanks for being here continuously, thanks for putting out a great show!

I’ve listened to this true-crime show since it began, and it’s still my favorite. Thoughtful, humorous, enlightening, and with two hosts who absolutely complement each other perfectly. Rich content without filler, and fewer of the details meant only to shock. Other pluses are the thoroughness of their original research, excellent original music, and beer ratings that make the show worth listening to even without the crimes!

I absolutely love these guys! I have been listening to them for 5 years now faithfully and you are literally the ONLY podcast I have on my phone! I’ve found that most true crime pods casts are boring and I can’t get through them! You are amazing and please keep up the great work and stories!!!!

Love you guys. Your hearts show in every episode. Thank you♥️♥️♥️

Ever since I found this podcast, it has become my favorite true crime podcast because the hosts have a much more serious approach.

It took me a few episodes to get the personalities down, but now these guys and their show are in my top 3. At least. Love the Stern influence, too. Just tremendous.

really into the flow and these guys. I enjoy the breakdowns and more obscure cases vs commercial ones . Please do more of those!
