Barry puts his heart and soul into this podcast. As s defense attorney, I appreciate his unfiltered take on Boston’s notorious criminal cases. Thanks
Boston Confidential
Absolutely terrific podcast. As a native Bostonian many of the episodes are familiar and evocative of my youth. Barry is a great host and always keeps the listener riveted. Keep up the great work.

I’ve listened to every episode. Local crime stories that we’ve all heard about if you grew up here. I’ve learned so many more facts about some of the highly publicized cases. I wicked enjoy Barry and his sarcasm.

A Wicked Good Look at Wicked Beantown Crime
Barry is a 20-year private investigator who grew up in and still lives in the Boston area. As a native of New Hampshire, I spent a lot of time in Boston, so know many of the places he mentions. He really draws you in to the episodes so that you and He focus on the victims, rather than glorifying the killers. He gives the police credit when deserved but also gives advice on how they could do better. One thing he emphasizes that I have always believed is that after decades, release the information held back. Barry seems to be talking to you directly, not reading off a script. Give him a listen. He just keeps getting better. He is so honest too. I do hope he gets a Coffee or Patreon account soon! I really want to support this guy.
Wicked good
Barry McGuire is that guy

AWESOME
This podcast is one of my favorite ones and being born and raised in Massachusetts makes this podcast extremely interesting and doesn’t disappoint at all. Extremely professional and is spoken from the heart and he does his research and has the experience in this field to bring a true podcast with nothing but the truth Sean 02780

Great Podcast
I really enjoy the shows. They are told in an informative and respectful manner. No annoying banter and cackling.
A total gem
I came across this show in the recommended podcasts section and I’m so glad I did. Barry’s authentic Boston accent enamored and drew me in but the high quality, well researched and put together, reliable episodes are what keep me hooked. Boston Confidential is a great show and highly recommended. So many of the cases are lesser known which is refreshing since multiple true crime podcasts are repeat stories that others have done so many times before. I’m from New England but living in SE GA so the cases are that much more interesting to me. Can’t wait for the next episode!
Great stuff!
Note for episode 88 (Pam Smart)- She worked at Winnacunnet High school but that’s not in Derry, that’s in Hampton, NH. I grew up in Derry and was about 9 at the time. She lived in Derry but commuted to work. Otherwise, thanks for the Pod, this is a great reliable true crime Pod that’s humble and great storytelling.
Weekly Fix
Barry does a great job…. I look forward every week. Monday afternoon cigar and Barry make my day.
