Crime Junkie Fan Club 12+

I began listening to Crime Junkie in 2020 when I, like so many others, searched for ways to feel connected to the outside world. It was love at first sight (listen?) and Ashley & Brit truly became such an integral part of my day that they feel like best friends now. Once I quickly made it through the standard episodes, I immediately joined the top tier of the fanclub and was delighted to find it included hours and hours of more CJ audio plus its very own app! Not only are the regular episodes released early and ad-free, but Ash and Brit give us fans SO many extras within the app — from exclusive episodes, to updates, to community engagement, to early access to the merch store… you get the idea! I am now on my second listen through of all the episodes via the app and I truly don’t know what I’d do without CJ keeping me company during car rides, school pickups, folding laundry, and falling asleep at night. Plus I have to add that Ash and Brit are so wonderful to their fans and actually engage with us (how many people can say they texted their fave podcast host and got a response back?!) and truly love and are grateful for this community. 5 stars isn’t enough to convey my love for this app and all things CJ!! My only wish is that all audiochuck series become available in a similar format in the future! Thank you for all that you do Ashley & Brit and the entire audiochuck family! 💜

I’ve listened to CJ since December of 2018; a friend recommended it , I started listening that same day , and binged all the episodes within a month . I became a fan club member pretty quickly as well. I love Ashley and Brit and everything they do for CJ ( as well as Delia and the other reporters and team members who help in making CJ the amazing thing that it is ). I also love that along with just making episodes, CJ has been proactive in raising funds and donations , helping families , demanding Justice , and raising public interest in cases that weren’t getting enough attention . As far as the app itself , I love that I can sort episodes different ways, find older episodes easily , and find announcements quickly as well . I’ve ne er had any issues using the app . I for sure won’t deduct stars for it , but the only criticism I can think of is that I really really miss Headlines .. like as much as I’m always excited for new episodes, for some reason I’d get double excited for Headlines. But we can’t always get everything we want and things change ; I completely understand if it was just too much on everyone’s already full plates or something to that extent . Definitely doesn’t stop me from continuing to love love love CJ .

First of all, Ashley Flowers’ voice is so smooth. It feels like a friend, since I’ve been listening to the podcast since the start. I am such a Britt fan and love how she highlights how she feels about the situations, and keeps the ones they report on alive in thought. Also the growth of the team is so exciting since we know they are contributing more than just stories. They push for true movement in cases, investigate every story and put their money where their mouth is.

I have always been a fan of true crime. I find people’s minds fascinating, as well as the true humanity side that shows processes aren’t perfect. I feel like there is not only accountability demanded for those impacted, but also I know my monthly payments are going to somewhere good. Will never stop listening! Excited to stick with this community and support the work of changing the system with my listening, club membership AND I’m grateful for all of the Audio Chuck team who keeps us updated on what is going on today. I was active politically before, but I feel so much more empowered knowing there is a full community of people who want change too.
