  • Why did it take so long for a podcast like this to show up?

    If you’re fascinated by the sorts of bizarre news stories that sometimes get overshadowed by all of the other hullaballoo, this is the podcast for you. I like the hosts, they’re very thoughtful and well-spoken. It’s not really political or culture war-centric, which is a refreshing break from the scores of podcasts which are. Just weird crime with lots of unpredictable twists and turns, plain and simple. What’s not to love?
