I’ve been a huge fan of JCS for over 4 years now. Have watched their videos numerous times, including all the content available on P. They definitely set the bar and its height still hasn’t been surpassed, despite the rapid growth of creators within the space. I’m avidly following EWU, Stayawake, Beyond Evil, Dr. Insanity, Red Tree, The Villains, Dreading and other usual suspects. And with absolute certainty I can confirm it’s true; Matt Orchard is the one that comes closest to the quality of JCS. 100%. If you’re a fan of JCS, and looking to get your fix in their absence, check out Matt. You might have to get used to his accent, but it’s absolutely worth it. I’m hooked!

“Look, there are people that are saying things that are just incorrect about JCS and myself. JCS got my permission first to use AI regarding my voice, and I am being compensated word for word like I normally would. They’re simply not screwing me over. And I’m very future uploads should have my actual narration on them”. -Kizzume via YouTube community post.

What was your favorite JCS production before it went to the dogs?

I think mine was The Case of Jon Koppenhaver. The music. The narration. The evaluation. Pretty spot on.

Whats going on with the channel?

They're back in business bois!! All aboard the hype train!!!

NEW VIDEO

With the new and controversial ownership of X formerly known as Twitter I think it’s very possible that he could move his content to X due to its terms of service compared to YouTube’s. I think he can publish the content we all know and love and receive recognition and compensation Jim deserves for his great content.

A quick edit is that I wanted to send this directly to him but I don’t have any way to reach him.

I tried looking for it and couldn't find it. At this point it feels like I imagined the whole thing.

Who the heck is jim? Why can't he swim?

I would like to think Jim Can’t swim will occasionally view Reddit out of sheer interest of the community created from the content. So I’m writing this in hopes the creator will see this - I miss you so much Jim can’t swim no other YouTube video will ever compare to the sound of the Jim can’t swim voice overs I miss him so much I would do anything to get Jim back I just hope the return happens while I’m alive

I hope you see this Jim and know that someone is holding their breath for your return.

Daves lemonade, Matt Orchard, and I think explore with us have completely dropped it. This is my favorite part of the videos.

I have a 10 hour drive in front of me in a couple of days, would love to listen to some great ones.

Something where the suspect is completely insane or just something where the entire interrogation is extremely entertaining.

Thank you JCS fam

Genuine question, how many have you watched? My friend just told me he watched 800+ interrogations. I thought my 200+ was an impressive number (been a fan since February 2023)

Does anyone have more than that?

It’s been over a year ugh having withdrawals. no other psychology channel does it like JCS.

Closest one is Explore With Us and honestly I don't feel like they hold a candle to JCS. I think one of the things that makes JCS great is that it isn't constantly interrupting, but instead giving you the tools to help you interpret the footage on your own while discussing things that came out later and also providing context and storyboarding that made sense. Every EWU video is kinda the same. Diagnosis the person with APD and interrupts every 5 seconds with body language analysis that half the time doesn't really mean anything. JCS is always explaining WHY the detectives are doing what they're doing and how they illicit a specific response from the suspects while I feel like a lot of other channels just kind of speculate on what the suspect was thinking in the moment.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's bad if you like EWU's content, if anything, I'm glad if you do, it's pretty objectively good content if I set aside my obvious bias for JCS. Those are the reasons it isn't for me personally.

JCS is also just straight up funny. I'll never forget the clip where a defense attorney says "They never dealt with law enforcement before" and the narrator just cuts in to say "Yeah, you don't say". It never felt like some corporate slop, it mainly felt like people who had actual commentary to give and wanted to genuinely share something they found interesting to the world rather than tap into a budding youtube market,

I just miss JCS. Every few months I binge all of their videos and get sad remembering the ones that aren't up anymore. I was so excited last year when they pushed out a few videos but was heartbroken to see that they stopped as soon as they started. Here's to hoping to getting a few more.

Just wanted to make a post for anyone who, like me, misses the good old days of JCS content. I see posts on here often asking for content that can replace JCS and the answers always seem to be the same bigger channels like EWU or Dreading, which are great, just not the same. A few months ago I found a smaller (but quickly growing) channel on youtube called Abstract (previously Real Horror). The channel is a one woman show, and like JCS, videos come out few and far between due to the insane amount of high quality research, writing, editing, and even 3-D modeling that goes into them. The videos are very captivating, eerie, well researched, and the stories are told in a way that makes it feel like the channel creator really respects and honors the subjects in her videos. It is an insane amount of work for one person, and the result is incredible. Didn’t want to keep this super cool channel all to myself. Happy watching!

Hello everybody and a great day to all of u!

So i am wondering, if there are more Channels on Youtube, that kind of analize peoples behavior, professional (best case from a video). More or less like JCS, but likei said, without (focus on) the crime topic.

Thanks in advance :-)

Right now watching EWU and That Chapter and love them both. Miss JCS...any recommendations?

Does anyone have the JCS for Joel Guy? It was one of the best coverages of the case including all of the body camera footage etc. and unfortunately it looks like YouTube took it down.

A basic question, i've found JCS videos and got enthralled, then i noticed they stopped making them?

Anyone can explain why, anyone can say if they are uploading somewhere esle?

I’m doing a project on huwe burton a man who falsely confessed to the murder of his mother and I thought this might be the best place to ask.

The release of this video seems like a good opportunity to discuss some similarities between the Grant Amato case and two other high profile cases, Joel Guy Jr and Chandler Halderson, which have stuck with me for quite some time. I want to make it clear that I'm not victim blaming in any way, but just trying to understand their motive.

Does anyone feel like coddling/enabling might have played a role? From what I understand, all three cases were committed by young men who had no history of violence and lived entirely off their parents' money. All three murders happened almost immediately after the perpetrators learned they were about to be cut off financially and forced to live on their own. They also had notably doting mothers who struggled to set firm boundaries with them and coddled them well into adulthood. Grant's mom gave in and let him use her phone to continue talking to the cam girl, even after sending him to rehab for the very same addiction and despite his father strictly forbidding it. Joel Guy Jr's mother sent him all her paychecks to live off of, despite him being an awkward, rude prick and having no real direction. Chandler Halderson's own brother, Mitchell, described their mother as a clingy helicopter parent, and it was odd to learn that at age 23, Chandler was still sent to his room as punishment, grounded, and given chores to do around the house. I'm no psychologist so this is just speculation, but in trying to understand why these men would murder their own family- their only source of support, love, and money- I've wondered if there's some resentment and rage built up in them from feeling coddled and possibly emasculated. Joel Guy Jr in particular is disturbing in just how brutally he mutilated and disrespected his mother's corpse. That act goes beyond hate to one of deep resentment and disgust. But why would someone feel this way towards the person who took care of them their life? Of course none of us can ever know what their family dynamic was like so there's a lot we'll never know. Regardless, there's zero justification for what they did and it's completely gut-wrenching that these parents met the gruesome fate they did at the hands of their own children who they loved unconditionally. I'm simply trying to understand what led them to snap. Very curious to hear people's thoughts.
