Top 10 Real Life Real Crime Episodes

Goodpods has curated a list of the 10 best Real Life Real Crime episodes, ranked by the number of listens and likes each episode have garnered from our listeners. If you are listening to Real Life Real Crime for the first time, there's no better place to start than with one of these standout episodes. If you are a fan of the show, vote for your favorite Real Life Real Crime episode by adding your comments to the episode page.

I would like to announce the premier of Real Life Real Crime- a true crime podcast which will detail cases that I have personally worked. This came about because in listening to other true crime podcasts I found most of the podcast hosts are regular citizens with no law enforcement experience talking about high profile criminal cases that have been sensationalized by the media. There are almost no true crime podcasts where law enforcement professionals are telling their stories from the first person point of view of the cases they actually worked. Therefore, I created Real Life Real Crime and I believe you will find it informative and interesting. I have always said that working in law enforcement is the" greatest show on earth" because the truth is almost always stranger than fiction.

I do have to warn you that my podcast is for adults only as the content will contain true, uncensored, and graphic descriptions of criminal cases I have worked.

I hope you will listen to the podcast and please feel free to "like" and "share"!

You can also find the us on twitter at Real Life Real Crime - A podcast by Woody Overton and will be available across all platforms including itunes and Spotify. Visit our website at www.realliferealcrime.com to subscribe so you always know when the next episode is released. Stay tuned for more!

My love for this podcast started when Woody(the host) started talking about an actual friend of mine Courtney Coco’s 15 year old cold case and he solved it in less than 6 weeks, but an arrest is yet to be made and we are on a mission to get it done! All of his episodes are amazing! He’s a retired detective who just tells stories about his time as a detective! His “wordy-isms” are hilarious!!
