More than one-third, 34%, of Americans who listened to a podcast in the past year say they regularly listen to podcasts about true crime.

Shanda Gimson's bedtime routine starts out pretty ordinarily: She turns off the lights and gets comfortable in bed. But before shutting her eyes, she picks up her phone and presses play on her favorite true crime podcast. Soon enough, she knows, she'll be fast sleep.

More than one-third, 34%, of Americans who listened to a podcast in the past year say they regularly listen to podcasts about true crime, according to another Pew Research CenterTrue crime narrators can be 'calm, comforting' "The interest in the subject comes from women's awareness that they are the victims of a vast majority of interpersonal violent crime especially crimes like serial murder," he says.according to data from the Violence Policy Center

"My grandma would be like, 'You could watch this with me, but keep in mind this didn't even happen close to us and this person is in jail now,'" Gimson says."I guess the sense of reassurance from them would always put those fears at ease."Many women also find true crime content educational, says Amanda Vicary, an associate professor of psychology at Illinois Wesleyan University.

What they all have in common, she says, is they want to offer help. The conference allows them to be part of the stories they listen to so diligently. Men might not have that same urge, she says."Because I listen to it so often, it's more of like a comfort thing and I know it'll instantly send me to sleep," Ivanicka says.
