  • So good!

    Happened across this pod while looking for good spooky true crime……love everything about it, the narrator, the music, the stories, the overall spooky vibe! I love true crime but a lot of podcasts have been rehashing the same stories…most of the stories on here are new to me so it makes it that much better! Please keep up the good work from ur garage in Tasmania!!❤️🙌

  • Great Australian content.

    It’s so nice to be able to hear some Australian content around local mysteries and unsolved crime.

    Its really appreciated the way in which content is presented that respects victims and their families. The content warnings are also greatly appreciated as I often like to listen with my kids and we can easily skip ones that are a bit much for them.

    I came across Strewth by accident. I’m so glad I did. The narration keeps you in the edge of your seat and I find myself googling the stories to see pictures and locations of the stories! Keen for more!

  • Story Time

    Carefully researched content and a narrator who genuinely cares about what he presents and how it’s presented.

    I love the soothing narration style coupled with the sometimes creepy, often disturbing content, it’s a nice juxtaposition.

    I like to think of this podcast as bedtime stories for grown-ups.

    Please keep them coming!
