Simone’s is annoyingly funny. Great scripts and narration.
Perfect way for crime story telling

Great show! I really enjoy the kind-of OGBB style storytelling and rants while discussing some of the worst people ever lived! It’s a strange but spot-on mix of true (horrible) crime stories, researched in depth by the writers and sidetracked rants and random anecdotes of Simon. May I suggest a horrible but interesting case for one of your writers: the Belgian Marc Dutroux. Talking about police incompetence… I know you don’t really like the ones with kids, but even without diving into the horrible details the mishandling of his cases, the police corruption (allegedly), the White March, the multiple sentences which he clearly just shrugged off, could make a real interesting episode.
Excellent

If you exist on a similar existential plane as Simon's, love obscure knowledge and long form audio ingestion, you'll love this too! Also every other true crime fan will easily appreciate the Brits talking about all the crazy and mostly familiar cases. 😊
True crime done differently

The Casual Criminalist is a new true crime podcast from Simon Whistler, known from many YouTube channels such as Today I Found Out, Biographics, and Geographics. Stylistically, this podcast is closer to his channel Business Blaze, which is to say that it feels more off-the-cuff, with anecdotes thrown in. Because of this, it feels more like a talk with a knowledgeable friend, rather than a heavily produced podcast. This probably makes the Criminalist Casual. If this style appeals to you as it does to me, and you are interested in true crime, I can wholeheartedly recommend giving the show a listen.
