These guys are so knowledgeable and well-researched. I love the history and the interesting way they tell the story behind every thread. Amazing if you love true crime. Jen and David are a solid team.
I found this to be such an interesting podcast. It really drew me in and I felt involved in the story and annoyed often at the injustice!
Hosts are knowledgeable and interesting. Good cases.
Such a nice historical podcast. Particularly loved David O in ep 1 - he would make a great regular host
This podcast is very interesting. Forgotten crimes from the past are brought back and reanalysed by a genealogist, in Jen Baldwin, and a criminologist, in David Wilson, both experts in their respective fields.
The lives of the working class are often forgotten to history, so I am glad Find my Past is working to bring the lives of the working class back into our front rooms.
