Great evidence
Very detailed, I’m on a binge ever since I discovered it!
The amount of research done by Steven is astounding. He must put his heart and soul into each episode.
Great all around investigative work and telling the story.
I like this podcast but every time an episode comes out he will say tune in next week or i am going to put out more episodes and that is always a lie anymore because it will be a month or 2 months with nothing! Just don’t promise ..

A weekly true crime series that centers on unsolved cases, disappearances, and murder investigations, exploring the evidence and multiple theories without sensationalism. Each episode tends to trace victims' stories, families' perspectives, and the investigative twists that keep debates alive, striving for a fact-driven narrative over speculation. A notable strength is a calm, methodical delivery that emphasizes context, victims' lives, and careful delineation between fact and theory, which can help listeners form their own conclusions. The show's consistent focus on older cases as well as updates to ongoing investigations offers a long-tail appeal for true crime fans who value depth over quick takes.
