I'm Canadian but I enjoy Irish culture & anything from Ireland. I toured & drove all over the island for four weeks in the summer of 2017 & absolutely loved being there. This Unsolved show is well written and presented by the two hosts. I look forward to more episodes in the second series. Keep up the great work! Thank you!
I love podcasts that give both detail and focus on the victims. Well done team, this is such a good podcast.
