For a long time, CANADALAND was (proudly) the number one podcast in the country \\u2014 but that\'s no longer true.

Australian-born Kristi Lee works in marketing by day... but late at night, you can find her sitting in her closet, recording meticulously-researched scripts about the country\'s most horrific crimes.

Her\\xa0Canadian True Crime\\xa0podcast boasts an impressive listenership, and it\'s not alone. Lee\'s is among a burgeoning group of popular indie true crime podcasts made across Canada. But with such a following, why do we rarely hear about these shows?

Kristi joins Jesse to discuss the economics, entertainment, and ethics of true crime podcasting in Canada.
