Your home should be your refuge. But as true crime podcasters we can tell you that criminals are out there willing to violate your peace and security for whatever insidious motive. It’s a real danger and it’s probably one of the scariest things that can happen to a person or a family.

And one big problem is that traditional home security systems are helpless to deal with this, because they are reactive. Once an intruder is inside or actively breaking in, then the system goes off. So the trauma is already going to be there for the homeowner. That’s why we trust Simplisafe to protect our home. They’re different. Plus, our listeners are going to get 60% off in Simplisafe’s biggest sale of the year. 

The reason we love our Simplisafe home security system is we know it’s proactive. If an possible intruder comes up to our door, their live agents will jump on the situation. They’ll confront the person, tell them police are on the way, and start sounding alarms and flashing lights. That Active Guard Outdoor Protection is a pretty good deterrent for a criminal. You don’t have to do anything, you don’t have to monitor alerts themselves. Their AI-powered cameras and live human agents will do it all for you. 

We’ve used our Simplisafe home security system for  years. It’s a brand that we trust, that’s become a part of our lives and our own peace of mind. As true crime podcasters, we’ve gotten threats, so we take security seriously. We trust Simplisafe to protect our family from burglars, criminals, and anyone who might do us harm. 

Don’t miss out on SimpliSafe’s biggest sale of the year—60% off. Right now, our listeners can save 60% off on a SimpliSafe home security system at SimpliSafe dot com slash MSHEET. That’s SimpliSafe dot com slash MSHEET. There’s no safe like SimpliSafe.
