  • A Loving Family: Episode 400

    A Loving Family: Episode 400
    Jul 15 2024
    The episode this week is from South Wales.

    Fiona Scourfield lived on a farm with her partner, step-son, dog Bruno and 32 other animals all of whom Fiona adored. She loved animals and worked hard for charities supporting animal welfare, especially dogs.

    But Fiona would be tragically murdered at just 54 by someone she had only ever shown love and affection. Shockingly, it was a member of her own family. This week, I look at just what happened to Fiona.

  • The Dice Man: Episode 399

    The Dice Man: Episode 399
    Jul 9 2024
    Somebody was writing to Flight Attendants at Gatwick Airport.

    Horrible, threatening notes asking for pornographic pictures and threatening violence if the demands weren't met, based on the throw of a dice.

    "There are six forfeits ranging from minor to very painful... Number six is an attack with an acid bomb, although there are lots of nasty things from number three onwards."

Brilliant

I absolutely love these podcasts. The stories are detailed and interesting, & are delivered in an entertaining manner. I also enjoy the year and month game at the beginning of the podcasts, which sets the scene time-wise. Well done Adam!

Great show!

I thoroughly enjoy listening to these episodes. The fact that they are in bitesize portions makes them appealing for shorter car journeys and walks that I do. Or even when I am doing jobs around the house and garden. The detail is very good and if it is a more complex story, it will become a 2 part podcast. I first found them on Spotify, but now follow on audible. I can’t wait for the next new episode. Thank you.

A brilliant addition to my week

I first came across this podcast on Spotify which was great for me but finding it here just makes me want to listen to every episode again!
I highly recommend if you are interested in true crime but prefer a short summary of cases, most episodes are 20 ish minutes so they're great for snapshots of events. Very easy listen!

Factual, Charismatic, Witty & Empathetic

Been a massive fan for a long time. I really struggle with American accents so this is my absolute favourite podcast!
The stories are well researched and to the point. The host adds a touch of lightness before and after the story which takes the tension off the content.
A podcast that 100% doesn't take itself seriously and is delivered with such empathy for the victim.
I just cannot recommend this more! 👌

Bite size chunks of crime

Apart from the advertising at the beginning, which I know is necessary, I found these interesting and very well written. And because they’re short and informative it’s easy listening for a short journey in the car or when doing jobs around the house. Will be listening to more, and recommending to others with an interest in true crime.
