- Really bad
Awful. Really pointless speculation and chit chat that mostly doesn’t make sense. Very disappointing as thought this would be a great listen.

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!
