This is the podcast that got me in to podcasts again. It's by far the most interesting "one story" true crime podcast I've heard.
Is this for real?

This podcast seriously hurts my ears. Two of the actors playing the daughters are speaking like they are the definition of dumb, with every sentence ending like it's a question. It sound so stupid. Could have been so much better.
Spennende👍🏻
