Wonderful storytelling.

Mike, your podcasts got me through late stages of pregnancy and the healing afterwards.
So informative, atmospheric and also very funny. I think my daughter likes your voice too!

One of the best

This has to be one of the best podcasts out there - our host is extremely knowledgeable and has researched each story fully - some stories are well known but even then he lets us know more details - and then there’s the extra bits the boat, the coots and the cake, just fabulous

Just Outstanding

I first came across Murder Mile podcasts on Amazon Music. They are extremely addictive. Michael is so talented and funny- especially on the the Extra Mile. I can’t recommend it enough if you’re a fan of true crime.

best British true crime podcast

Enjoy the way he tells the story. He remembers the victims and shows them as real people. He does his research and it shows.

Another excellent true crime podcast

Been listening to this podcast for ages and it’s brilliant, interesting and funny. So many crimes in such a small part of London. Well worth a listen and it’s free..have to put up with ads though..

The very thing I thought would irritate me is the very thing that has endeared me to the show...

...Micheal's quirky presentation style, which at first sounded ill placed, or even just ill!
But no, it's fantastic, warm, chatty, hilarious, a touch Rik Mayall, and so very polished.
Some very funny turns of phrase and asides but most fantasticly descriptive. The research is another level, subject choices gripping, and delivery wonderful.
Cannot recommend highly enough.
