1) Dave—prefer it when he avoids political issues. While other some other reviewers bash him, he’s the one that keeps this podcast moving along because if it were just JSM, each episode would be hours long. Speaking of JSM… 2) somebody get him a thesaurus. Please. Every time there’s a child victim…well, it could be a drinking game. “Precious Li’l Angel! DRINK!” Listeners would be drunk for days. 3) Name dropping Nancy Grace isn’t the flex they think it is. Ugh.

It is clear that Joseph Scott Morgan is a professional who is passionate about his work and he explains things in a way that is easy to understand. I highly recommend listening to his many stories.

You would complain to a retailer about an ouija board being on a shelf. Give me a break. You don’t make the rules for everyone Dave. I bet you’re a blast at parties.

Absolutely love this podcast. The degree of research and knowledge and experience that is brought to this show is superb! Thank you!!

Sounds like you’re in a box.

Super informative and I loved Jackie and now Dave is a great co-host. Joe Scott goes into enough detail to be scientifically accurate but in a manner that the layman can understand. He really does have the heart of a teacher. ❤️ I met the Morgan’s at CrimeCon one year and they are just the nicest people as well!

Episodes could all be 30 min and perfectly informative and entertaining but host drags on and on and on with fillers, repeats self over and over along with periods of silence.

It’s Gulf of Mexico 🧐

I always imagine how lucky those who listen to your teachings are. I am way beyond the age of studying forensics but it would be a dream to be in your class. Always impressed listening to you. Thank you. Question: is there a way you two can talk about tools and techniques used to preserve evidence for decades without altering it? Thank you again.

It is tragic that there should have been a professional caregiiver and that there is a frightful amount of ignorance about the disease

This episode just aggravated the heck out of me. It took until the 32:20 mark for you to say the word “hantavirus.”Please be more linear and concise instead of talking all around the most important part of the story. Y’all were very vague & cryptic. If I hadn’t already known the story, I would have bailed on this episode after 10 minutes. Please be more concise with your storytelling. This was just stupid.

I love Body Bags with Jo and Dave, as they are GREAT together. As of recently, it seems that Jo goes off on information that is not involved with the case they are discussing. Still Love Body Bags with Joe Scott Morgan and Dave, as they complement each other AMAZINGLY…..

Really wish you’d skip the political ads. Definitely did not need to hear a Trump sneaker ad while trying to escape the ads on the radio. Edit…The political ads have ended. I don’t know if it was because of all of the reviews, but I am glad. You used to be very good about not disclosing any of your political views. When Dave is on the show, he seems to bring it out. He whines and groans about all of the injustices that he differs in opinion about. It’s obnoxious. I listen for facts, not political opinions. Dave doing this brings nothing to the show. Typically love your content but it’s getting more and more difficult to enjoy it. The most recent episode with the firing squad/baseball bat was awful. Dave - shut up.

I love everything you do! From all the shows you are a guest on to your podcast and book! Plus you have no idea how good looking you are which makes your calming demeanor even better! I bet your wife feels so safe around you.

I saw the actual death of Gary Gilmore by firing squad on TV. As I remember, they had to do it twice.

Recent episode on methanol deaths makes me glad I’m on Dave’s side of drinking…. As in complete abstinence!!!

This is one of the most fascinating podcasts EVER. Both hosts are great in their own respects. This has been kind of a sleep aid for me after tough calls—it feels like JSM and Dave are “in the trenches” with me and has honestly been very therapeutic (albeit a bit strange 😂). Thanks guys!

I love listening to you, Joe. I cannot stand listening to Dave. He laughs at the most inconvenient of times- he tries to joke around all the time- it’s not so much on facts but on jokes with him. Every time he begins to speak I want to switch to a different podcast and he interrupts you half of the time- you’re trying to stick to point and he interjects with some joke or something else. Rather annoying. Go back to the facts- you’re a great story teller Joseph!! Lose the extra weight!

Um…the one episode I listened to was a follow up to the JBR murder, they struggled with facts of the case, focused on the ransom note while obviously trying to make the pieces fit whatever conclusion they have crafted. No thanks, there’s plenty of internet sleuths already.

Hadnt listened for over a year and after one new episode, I won't go back. Morgsn used to be succinct and stick to the facts. Now he and his cohost theories constantly almost a click bait to what's coming next to keep you interested very disappointing

This show is one of my absolute favorites. It can get pretty graphic and descriptive, but JSM and Dave explain things thoroughly. I love hearing some of the science and explanations for things. As someone from the “landmass between Mobile and New Orleans,” I also love that I can identify so easily with some of the Southern quips Joe uses.

First I love ur podcast ,especially ur voice. Joe I wish u weren’t married! Ur my kinda guy.Handsome too!

This is my favorite podcast , I love Joe Scott’s voice , I am also from Kentucky and he is from Louisiana so I can understand every word , he says papa and that’s what I call mine . Keep it up and I will keep you listen to your podcast , if you are into true crime and not a bunch of kid cussing this podcast is for you , Joe gives you the facts and he is so professional!!!! I give him a 10-10 👏❤️💯💯

The in-depth, medical information is delicately covered with care and respect. Yet, at times, some of the opinions of Dave Mack come from a less objective viewpoint introduces conjecture that detracts from what the truth is. Also, in some episodes there seem to be too many unprofessional attempts at psychoanalysis. I have stopped listening because of this. Also, blaming crimes on being an immigrant or on healthcare being government- subsidized veers into politics and instantly detracts from the forensic truths.

There’s so much I love about this podcast and Joseph Scott Morgan, I just wish it were more him and less Dave Mack. I have massive interest in learning about JSM’s experience with medicolegal investigations, their techniques, and insight behind the forensics. I have zero interest in further listening to Dave Mack’s personal and political philosophies dropped in as asides. He’s very much welcome to continue doing so, I just won’t be listening to or recommending the podcast while it continues to occur.

Best Crime Podcast by far True teaching of forensics and behind the scenes Informative and accurate Not a day goes by without listening to Body Bags

I absolutely love Joseph Scott Morgan! Body bags is one of the best true crime podcasts out there. Love love love!

If you enjoy listening to true crime podcasts then this is one for you. Not only is he super informative about the inside workings of the cases, he has the best podcast voice I have ever heard.

Hands down the best true crime podcast out there! Mr. Morgan explains true crime like no other. He guides you through the in and outs of the crimes. I highly recommend this podcast!!

Such a great show with thoughtful insight into these high profile cases. A must-listen for everyone!

I have been listening to Joe Scott Morgan since he was just a guest on Nancy Grace. I absolutely love his voice for storytelling. His counter part, Dave Mack, is also brilliant and they play off each other very well. I love learning something new through these crime stories and I love how kind and respectful they are to the victims. It’s a plus that Joseph is a fellow Louisianan! Thank you Joe Scott for what you do and the person you are!!!

Love your insight and knowledge in all of the cases.

Love this podcast! I listen to it as I get ready in the morning.. haha. Sets the tone for my day!

I’ve been listening to JSM and Dave Mack via Crime Stories with Nancy Grace for quite some time now. I love how JSM always approaches every story with empathy, care and common sense. Dave is the perfect partner to act as “us,” “the listener,” asking real questions and providing what he knows about each case. JSM is in the game as a current professor and his vast knowledge is impressive and inspiring. We need these real life crime fighters who ACTUALLY have a hand in catching criminals and ACTUALLY help crime victim families in a profound way. JSM and Dave Mack don’t just read a crime story from the internet for this podcast, like so many others do. They are true professionals who combine their knowledge and make a difference. I suspect that beyond this podcast their contributions throughout their careers have benefited more families than we could ever imagine. Thanks for an educational and meaningful podcast with two great, down to earth gentlemen.

I am a huge true crime addict! I love deep diving into cases and Body Bags is a great way to learn more in depth behind the scenes information . Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack have such a great camaraderie. I enjoy hearing the hows and why’s to certain things in the cases and so many times I’m left thinking I never thought of that and wow that really explains it and makes sense. Keep the episodes coming guys I love them ! And THIS is Body Bags!!

After hearing about it on Crime Stories, I started listening to Body Bags, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I love how Joe and Dave talk like they’re just having a friendly conversation - it makes things so much easier to understand!

Tried listening to the episode about the bear attack that wasn’t… he said “maxillary and mandulary” in regards to teeth. It’s maxillary and mandibular. There were other mispronunciations and just…. He’s not as knowledgeable or professional as I thought so I won’t be listening to anymore episodes. Disappointing.

I will no longer be listening to this podcast as you promoted Trump and aired a commercial for him. Being a redneck isn’t cool.

Love the podcast, but please with that watch ad…

I just found this podcast and so glad I Did. Thorough, Intelligent and great presentation, production👍

Used to enjoy this podcast but cancelling after hearing numerous Trump ads. Keep politics out of it

Just started listening to this show and I’m a few episodes in. This last one they say they didn’t care about being “politically correct” regarding a Native American issue. I immediately unfollowed and turned it off. Do better.

As a true crime junkie, I LOVE spending my days as a stay at home mom listening to all sorts of podcasts. JSM, thank you for such amazing insight of the cases you’ve covered. Truly enjoy listening I can honestly say I’ve learned so much, I feel like a student lol

I found this while listening to Nancy Grace. And I absolutely love Joe Scott Morgan and Dave Mack! I could listen to them both all day! 🩷 My only complaint is that I need more episodes 😉 Please never stop!

Thank you for your show. Please never invite NG again.

Everything I ever wanted in a podcast! Joseph Scott Morgan is my spirit career animal ❤️Please don’t stop!

I took a few classes with Dr. Morgan when studying to get my degree in college. He’s the very reason I fully decided to pursue my journey into the forensic field. I listen to his podcasts when driving because I enjoy how thoroughly he dives into cases and picks them apart. If you ever have the chance to listen to him in person, I would because I’ve never had a better mentor than him.

I enjoy listening to Professor Joseph Scott Morgan on Body Bags. He can explain forensics language in a way that the average person will understand! Worth listening. Thank You

I always write a review .. never see it.. Hope u guys get it… JSM.. so smart.. I could listen to these two all day!

I love this podcast. JSM is so knowledgeable! I live vicariously through his stories. Dave Mack, thanks for making things light but please stop interrupting. As soon as JSM starts down a path you jump in and summarize the whole story.
