Very Interesting

Each day is a really interesting crime that is talked about. Really enjoy this podcast.

Best host

Vanessa Richardson has the best voice and makes listening to fantastic short cases the best. Clear and well spoken and makes each case an easy listen. Well put together and detailed in such a condensed version of such huge cases
Love this podcast

You need to do more research. Your ep about Anne Boleyn was sooo historically inaccurate. Shame on you!
