    Finally a new episode! Please please please do some more! Love hearing the histories and misadventures of the famous. The deep dives into the Idaho college murders and the Cindy Song cold case are really well told. Jacy has a lovely way of speaking, taking her time to tell stories in a relaxed, nuanced pace. So good!

    Riveting podcast of historical stories

    that leave the listener thirsting for more

    One of very few that don’t include commentators laughing giggling like college kids high on cannabis .

    They’re podcasting serious professional narration minus all the usual banter and idiocy you get from other podcasts

    Thank you for being genuine
