    Episode 51: Poisoned Minds - The Murders of Carol and Stephen Baxter

    Keep your friends close and your enimies closer. It's a saying we hear often, but what if our enimies are disguised as our friends?

    In April 2023, Carol and Stephan Baxter were found dead in their armchairs. But when the police realised their deaths were not from natural causes and their investigation led them to a seriously dark and depraved act of betrayal but someone they loved.

    This is Real.

Sensitive & Thoughtful

I like to support independent podcasts and was impressed with this one. Well researched and very interesting subjects, many of which I haven’t heard before which is refreshing. One of the few true crime podcasts don’t sensationalise the cases which is appreciated. Naomi’s voice is smooth and feels gentle and warm. She is one of the more balanced hosts too, seeing all sides which is refreshing!

2 week True Crime Binge 😅

I am totally invested in this podcast! Naomi’s calm delivery is a perfect contrast to some of the shocking true crimes covered. I am nearly up to date though 😭

One of the absolute best true crime podcasts!

I’ve listened to soooo many podcasts and can honestly say this is my favourite. From the single deep dives into particular cases, or the more in-depth series, they are all brilliant. The tone of the host Naomi Channell is just right - not over dramatics, no bias, just facts. Cases are told with tact and sincerity. If you’re into your true crime, please give this a listen!
