  • Just excellent

    The best crime podcast out there . Deeply and diligently researched . Paul is an outstanding host and I especially like the more informal ‘ let’s just talk about these events ‘ rather than the putting in a performance reading from a script style that many of the other true crime podcasts have .

    I am rattling through the episodes so fast that I am a bit concerned that I will run out before long . Looks like I’ll be heading over to Patreon and registering my support .

    Keep up the good work Pau... more
