Johnson has found an amazing story and told it very well.

Rare and revealing insiders' account of a tragic event.

Lots of excitement surrounding the Raiders move to Las Vegas!

Extremely powerful storytelling from this podcast. Very well done.

The events of that night have been told many times, in many ways, but I was still on the edge of my seat while listening. It’s easy to look away from something as terrible as 1 October. Thank you for diving in, thoughtfully and with respect to those affected - all the while giving listeners a sliver of hope to hold on to as you guide us through the terror. I was hooked after the first few seconds. Looking forward to the rest of it.

I am so blown away by how this podcast is able to put the listener smack in the middle of these horrifying events. By using the perspective of a brand new officer, we get a look through fresh eyes of how terrifying and disorienting it is to be present for an active shooter situation- events we are becoming desensitized to. This podcast is so important!

The Oct. 1 shooting was an overwhelming tragedy for this city. Shea Johnson’s decision to tell the story of that night through the lens of a rookie officer and his field training officer allows listeners to understand better the chaos, madness and terror of the event. Combined with suspenseful, dramatic storytelling, this is undoubtedly one of the best pieces of journalism to come out of that awful night.

The RJ staff and reporter/host Shea Johnson did a great job diving deep into these intersecting stories from the largest mass shooting in U.S. history. I couldn’t stop listening. The podcast should remind everyone why strong local journalism is so crucial to every community.

Great podcast by a former journalism colleague of mine. Compelling behind the scenes details of the deadly Las Vegas mass shooting. Interesting story about a police officer who was new to the job and just starting their shift when they first got the call about the massacre. I’m excited to hear more! Keep up the great work.

dramatic and compelling

The first minutes of this podcast gave me goosebumps. Good setup and well-produced.

It’s obvious that careful thought & research has gone into telling this important perspective. In a time where these tragedies are happening left and right, hearing these stories helps me fight that numb feeling, reminding me that this shouldn’t be normal. Looking forward to the next episode in this promising pod.

This is really compelling

Very informative and well executed podcast that really makes you think.

Captivating series that hooked me immediately. Shea does a great job of telling this true crime story from a unique perspective. Can’t wait to hear the remaining episodes!

Great first episode!

This podcast is extremely well-made and had my full attention for every minute. Does such an impressive job capturing the emotion of this horrible event. Can’t wait for the next episode to come out!

The first episode was very chilling but very very good. I’m intrigued by the angle of the podcast and can’t wait to hear more. I just wish the first episode was longer!

First episode is fantastic! Can’t wait to hear the entire series!

As somebody who recently moved to Las Vegas a few months ago, this podcast really opened my eyes. You see similar tragedies around the world, offer thoughts and prayers, make social media posts about it but you never really experience the emotions as somebody who has lost a loved one or lived so close to the incident. I honestly didn’t even remember the date of the shooting and have lived in Vegas for over 6 months! It’s nowhere close to what some of my friends, neighbors, and community members experienced but it’s a step so I can better understand my new home. The recordings and interviews are impeccable and really place you in the heat of the moment, I can’t wait for the next episode!

The way this podcast is presented keeps you on the edge of your seat while bringing a whole new perspective to this tragedy. A great job by the journalists. I could not recommend this enough.

A new angle on the sad story of the Route 91 Harvest festival.

I could tell the journalists did their due diligence making this podcast. Unique perspective too. Worth a listen!
