I enjoy true crime stories and I do enjoy this podcast. I have knocked off 1 star because of the pronunciation of words. I’ve just listened to a story where ‘papyrus’ was pronounced ‘pappyrus’ and another one where ‘catarrh’ was pronounced ‘cat-ar’ as if it were 2 words. I understand not everyone knows how to pronounce certain words, but surely if you’re broadcasting you would check your pronunciations before recording.
I have listened to this podcast for a couple of years, the YouTube channel and the podcast never disappoints
First time in ages that I’ve found a podcast that is an easy-listen, well -told and not overly loud or dramatic. Sad stories of British murders but delivered well. Thank you, Stuart! The episode length is also just right!
I very much enjoy the host’s accents and his British turn of phrase. Though his pronunciation is often very wrong, especially with names. It is not hard to find out how place names are pronounced or to research the most common pronunciation of names but he just plunges ahead with his incorrect versions. Listening to him ruin “Mairead” in one story over and over and over almost had me screaming! The content is very standard. He simply retells what happened leaning heavily on Wikipedia articles ... more
This is one of the best, fact based and most respectful true crime podcasts I’ve ever listened to. Never took long, never too short. And a very soothing voice to listen to as well👌🏻
