True crime podcasts

[deflatedbirthday]

Hoping I can get some recommendations..

I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts. Usually ones covering a particular case per episode or two.

I really enjoy true crime or interesting conspiracy documentaries.

Can anyone recommend any true crime podcasts series or one offs that cover just one case or event… like a deep dive over several episodes or one long episode?

Thanks!

Crime Junkie! The women who do it, Ashley Flowers and Britt, are such good speakers and they really do justice to the cases. Plus there are tons of episodes so if you like it, then that is your listening sorted for ages!

Millionaire Lover on BBC sounds

Serial got me started
casefile I listen to religiously
Kendall Rae

I can’t stand the ones with multiple people chatting in between that’s why I love casefile

Casefile! No music no stupid chit chat no sound effects just a really compelling story and all the facts

Crime and Coffee couple. I love those guys.

The Boy in the Water. Awful case but really interesting.

I love Redhanded. I’m a bit obsessed.

I am placemarking. I think BBC Crime Next Door is good but haven't listened to any others. I hate feeling ghoulish, but find them interesting.

Redhanded

Can’t believe none had recommend all killa no filla, (as far as I can see anyways lol) one of my favs and up there with the rest!

also Sue Perkins did a series about Carrie Jade which was very interesting, Carrie Jade does not exist.

The Red handed ladies have done a couple of spin offs, could not get behind the most recent as I found it very odd (Flesh and Code)! But the older one called Filthy Ritual was really interesting!

if you want softer listening with kids around the Edith Bowman and Iain Stirling do one on BBC called “Murder she wrote”

Can’t edit my post above - but it’s Laura Whitmore with Iain, not Edith, oops

Have a look at bbc sounds true crime.

I’ve listened to loads of them that do a mini series and currently listening to strange but true.

I’ve also enjoyed

crime next door
gangster

I need to go through this thread and write every single recommendation down. Something AI would be useful for.

That Chapter is one I really enjoy

These are a little older but Stalked and The Staircase on BBC sounds are good listens.

On Apple Podcasts, Kill List, Park Predators, Morbid and Crime Junkies are all good.

Fool’s Gold on BBC Sounds was a good one. Not about murder, which I liked, because it can feel a bit ghoulish at times. You almost forget these people have a family out there.

Lady killers with Lucy Worsley, The mushroom cook, the missing campers & Criminal are my favourites.

Root of Evil, about a suspect in the Black Dahlia murder. Absolutely insane story.

Morbid! Alaina is also a fiction writer - Butcher and the Wren series, although I haven't read thm yet. Grimm is good too and as mentioned above, Casefile is great. I love the presenter!

Real Crime Profile often does multiple episodes on a case. And no chit chat after the brief intro.
