For a hilarious lampooning of true crime podcasts, check out The Onion’s podcast “A Very Fatal Murder”.
Truly a great piece of satire: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-very-fatal-murder/id...

Not a podcast, but there's also the Netflix mockumentary series "American Vandal".
American Vandal may be my favorite piece of satire ever made. It mocks true crime shows... by being an extremely good true crime show. It demonstrates well that it's not the content, but the presentation that makes it so compelling.
Well, not actually "true".
'Only Murders in the Building' starring Martin Short, Steve Martin, and Selena Gomez playing podcasters in a Hulu show is also amazing.
Only Murders in the Building is like American Vandal meets Agatha Christie.
