I tried…

I’m not going to leave less than 5 stars because who am I to say you’ve earned them or not 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m just giving my opinion.
I tried my hardest to like this podcast, but the hosts voice goes super loud and then super quiet… and super fast and then super slow. It’s very sing-songy to me - and listening solely through ear buds, the constant highs and lows and speed changes within one sentence is just more than my ears could take.

Newport RI cold case

Diane Drake murdered and left on one of Newport’s famous beaches in the 1980s. A sweet family oriented girl from a huge family that still has no answers. The police used hypnosis of witnesses and psychics to help with the case (to no avail) Each year the family gathers at the same beach on the anniversary and asks the public to remember her case —aside from the tourism it’s a pretty small county/community—and I know there’s locals out there who know what happened. Please consider covering this case—only one other person has featured it.
