    A Cowardly Murder: Episode 428
    Jan 28 2025

    Christian Thornton was the landlord of the Hammer & Pincers pub, in Widnes in the north-west of England, and a very popular landlord he was too, who was very popular and worked closely with the many charities in the community. He didn’t take any nonsense but he was a kind, good-humoured man who took his responsibilities as a landlord seriously. He had run the popular pub with his wife for 16 years and as well as their business, it was also the home of the couple and their three children.


    But on one quiet and very normal Sunday, events at the pub resulted in the most shocking murder.

    Bonus Episode: Interview with Tanita Matthews - True Crime Author & Documentary Maker
    Jan 24 2025

    In this special bonus episode, I sat down to chat for Tanita. We have known each other for a few years and I am always interested in Tanita's career making true crime documentaries. Now she has just released her first true crime book, this seemed the right time to interview Tanita about writing a book and the future of true crime tv. Look out for my usual weekly episode on Tuesday.

  • A Question of Family: Episode 427

    A Question of Family: Episode 427
    Jan 21 2025


    Tina Casey left the family home in the Isle of Man to live in the north-east of England, in a pretty village just north of Newcastle. She and her partner had a baby and were so grateful for the support of his mum, who Tina described as her 'rock'. But when the relationship with her partner broke down and Tina spoke about returning to the Isle of Man, events took a sinister, and ultimately tragic, turn.

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.
