Incredible Podcast
I binged all 7 episodes today. I am so grateful that I found this podcast. His voice is mesmerizing and so easy to listen to! Can not wait for more episodes!!!!

Hooked from first episode!
If you like twisted true crime tales....Look no further. Excellent production quality and captivating suspense. Haven’t been this excited since Up and Vanished.

Awesome!
This is an awesome podcast! Love the audio footage of these interviews! Great job guys! -Kelli in IL

Instant subscriber!
We are both in a fb group for a different podcast and I saw his plug, lol. Gave it a listen and subscribed on the first episode! His voice is awesome first off! But adding in actual audio is so cool. Great job, man!

Sound design
In addition to be an outstanding podcast the sound design is superior by far to anything I’ve ever heard and it contributes to the whole creepy vibe I swear sometimes I thought someone was standing behind me!

Five stars
Such a great podcast!

You’ll be screaming “NARCISSIST!”
I was approached with this podcast, and since I love all things dark and true crime, I had to give “Tapes from the Darkside” a listen. #1 the name sold me as darkside was a school nickname I was given, and #2 if you were a fan of the original Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack, this podcast will give you TOTAL Unsolved Mysteries vibes. I was so emotionally all over the place listening to this, and found myself just saying “classic narcissist” about Mark. His deflections were unreal. The fact he skated by for so long is infuriating. I really enjoyed this podcast. I had to google halfway through what happens to this deadbeat dad just for some peace of mind while I continued to listen. That’s the sign of a great podcast in my opinion. It bothered me so much I had to google the case. Great job Tz!

Very well done!
I had asked around a Facebook group for a few true crime podcast recommendations in which the very friendly host of this one reached out to see if I would mind listening to his. I think most people might turn a blind eye to newer podcasts, but in this case, I’m glad I didn’t. I just recently started it and got hooked from the beginning. He doesn’t chit chat/banter about daily life, doesn’t use humor, mainly uses tapes/audio in which he doesn’t frequently interrupt unless he feels the listener might be confused and leaves just enough info at the end of each episode to keep you on the edge of your seat. He digs down deep for his information/research to be able to present us with all adequate and precise information regarding the case. The dedication, time and effort he puts into making this podcast is truly awesome. It is easily a new favorite of mine, I highly recommend!

Excellent Podcast
The first season of this true crime podcast covers the tragic murder of 13 year old Dylan Redwine. Dylan disappeared during a court ordered visit with his father. This bizarre story is told by a single narrator with the aid of contemporaneous recordings such as phone calls and a TV interviews. It’s thoroughly researched and well worth your time.

Comprehensive true crime
A tragedy is investigated and presented to us in a captivating way. Great details, audio clips and music!

Love this pod!
Excellent serial pod on Dylan Redwine case. I have really enjoyed going through this case with TZ. The pod is expertly produced and extremely engaging. Highly reccommend you subscribe and check it out.

Love it so far
I’ve only listened to a couple of episodes but their really well done! Looking forward to more.

Great show!
As a true crime fan I’ve listened to a lot of different podcasts. This podcast is very well put together. I hope many more seasons are to come. Keep up the great work.

Excellent
Love this! So well written and so cohesive. I binged and was disappointed when I finished. Highly recommend!

Oh, it is love ... And, well, murder.
“Tapes from the Darkside”, how do I love thee? It’s impossible to even try to count the ways (sorry Billy Shakes!) How did I find TFTDS? I have no idea. But, talk about a good find! TZ is a great host, with a general deadpan that fits the subject matter perfectly, but with just the right bit of “o rly?” thrown in at those special times to make you laugh, all by yourself, all alone, in never-ending quarantine. (Well, that just got very personal, very fast.) On top of it all, there’s this cool kid club (you can join!) of Darksiders on FB, a legit (and affordable) Patreon crew and, at the helm, is probably one of the most down-to-Earth, fun dudes I’ve never met. And, I haven’t even mentioned Dannie! Do yourself a favor and listen today!

Amazing Podcast! Highly Recommend!
I stumbled upon Tapes from the Darkside and I am so glad I did. Tz is a great storyteller and adds in actual voice clips from the case. It is not all just his opinion, he gives you information and wants you to think about it and come up with your own conclusions of the case presented. In the case of Dylan Redwine, I normally always do my own research and want to learn more outside a podcast. However, I have not done it with this case because I want to see where Tz goes with the information. I am excited to see where this podcast goes in the future. I believe in it so much that I became a supporter on Patreon. I don’t support any other podcast that way, so for me thats a sign this podcast will go places! Highly recommend!!

Excellent!
Tz does a wonderful job of pulling audio from various sources, and putting it all together to let the people involved in the case tell the story themselves. This has quickly become one of my favorites. The retro-synth music is also a major plus for me!

True crime gold
My favorite true crime takes you through the story with findings from the creator, not just summarizing a case. They take you through details you can’t just find in a google search.

A must listen podcast!
An unbelievable story put together so well with a hint of 80’s nostalgia. An easy listening, engrossing gem. - Lauren LaGrange

Excellent
Fantastic pod, will blow up amongst true crime fans

Great storytelling
What happened to Dylan? Tapes From the Darkside turns over every stone looking for the answer. The quality of the audio and the sound of the narrator’s voice are excellent. The audio clips fit together seamlessly and allow the listener to become absorbed in the telling of this tragic tragic tale.

Innovative And Captivating
True crime lovers this one is for you. A serialized stunner you’ll be hooked from episode one as the tale of missing teen Dylan Redwine unfolds. Told through a mix of top notch narration and interviews, you’ll be glad you listened. Subscribe now and don’t miss a thing! Don’t even think about missing the after show. You’ll totally become a Darksider too. — Tara, co-host of MSBC podcast

Supper dark in the best way
Great sound quality and even better sound engineering! Tapes From the Darkside has a refreshing format, a mix of first person interview audio clips AND host narration. The after shows are more of a “relaxed fit” vibe and provide extra details from the case. Don’t skip ‘em!! SUBSCRIBE!! Keep up the great work!! - Cassie from HHGW Podcast
