Inside the Crime Junkie Fan Club: What You Get When You Want More Than the Weekly Episode + Merch Drop Secrets
If you’re a true crime fan (or live with one), this one’s for you. If you’ve ever finished a Crime Junkie episode and immediately thought, okay but I need more, the Crime Junkie Fan Club might be worth knowing about.
It’s not something you need to enjoy the show (the public feed is great on its own) but for listeners who binge, it does add a lot of perks.
🎧 1. What You Actually Get With the Crime Junkie Fan Club
The Fan Club isn’t about gimmicks. It’s about giving loyal listeners more of what they already love.
Early Episode Access
Episodes show up early in the Fan Club, which means less waiting and fewer spoilers floating around online. First access…yes please.
Exclusive Fan Club–Only Episodes
These are full, complete cases that don’t show up anywhere else. If you’ve ever finished an episode wishing there was more to listen to, this is where that extra content lives. After the JonBenét Ramsey episode, I ended up watching the behind-the-scenes interview with Ashley and JonBenét’s father- something you can only access through the Fan Club.
Follow-Ups and Case Updates
Some stories don’t end when the episode does. Fan Club members get updates and follow-ups directly from Ashley and the Audiochuck team when new information becomes available.
Ad-Free Listening Across Audiochuck Shows
This is a big one for binge listeners. Fan Club members get uninterrupted listening across Crime Junkie and other Audiochuck shows like The Deck, CounterClock, Dark Downeast, and Full Body Chills. Once you listen ad-free, it’s hard to go back.
Early Access to Merch Drops
Fan Club members also get early access to limited merch releases — the same kinds of drops that tend to sell out quickly. If you’ve ever missed a collection you loved, this perk alone is legit.
🛍 2. Crime Junkie Merch Is Limited (and Fans Know It)
Crime Junkie merch isn’t mass-produced or always available. Most drops are limited and designed around specific themes or Life Rules. Like the Holiday drop this season- it was SO cute but sold out fairly quick!
You’ll usually see things like:
Cozy hoodies and sweatshirts
Wearable everyday pieces and accessories
Limited-edition designs that don’t always restock
Early access doesn’t mean pressure to shop… it just means you get to shop before popular sizes and styles disappear.

🖤 3. Who the Fan Club Is (and Isn’t) For
If you want the full Crime Junkie experience- early episodes, exclusive cases, ad-free listening, case updates, and first access to merch — the Fan Club pulls it all together in one place.
It’s made for listeners who already love the show and want a little more access to the stories, the process, and the community behind it.
