Hi crime junkies I have a special treat for you hence why I'm popping into your

feeds on a Thursday I don't know if you know this but this summer marks five

years since we started the Crime Junkie fan club.

We don't really plug it super often.

We might mention that you can see a pick in the app.

But clearly I'm doing a terrible job of keeping you in the know,

and I know this because while I was at this author, true crime event in the Hamptons this spring I met a group of lovely ladies

Hello ladies who were super fans they listen to every episode they run with me in their ears every week and they've been doing this for years and they said they

wished we had more episodes and I said well we do in the fan club and they had no idea

what I was talking about so if you're in the same boat, let me fill you in. Back in 2019 I started

in Patreon because I heard so many of our crime junkies asking for more, more episodes,

more ways to connect with us, more case visuals.

And while we were on Patreon, I also spent years building our own custom app.

And that's where our fan club lives now, the Crime Junkie app. You can download it on your phone in any

app store. All the episodes you regularly hear are ad free. The case pictures and

documents are timed and pop up as you're listening to the episode so you can follow along and see exactly what me and Brit are looking at.

And fan club members get first access to merch and tour tickets.

Hint, hint, something's coming.

The top tier of our fan club also gets help deciding what organizations and causes we donate to.

And we've started even adding other shows like my serious

XM radio show Crime Junkie AF. And the most important thing, there is so

much Crime Junkie bonus content.
