  • Loving the Veil Podcasts

    Really enjoying the Veil podcasts with Ryan Wolf. He explores older more well known cases sometimes with a different perspective or new evidence such as the recent Kurt Cobain one.

  • Great listen

    Informative and easy to listen to. Have to laugh at some of the pronunciations of the Australian place and organisation names though!
