“This podcast is an enlightening blend of history and analysis of human behavior, sparking a much needed dialogue around the more vulnerable lives of our society and how they become victims. Finally we have a powerful movement delving deep beneath the surface layer of labels such as “prostitute” to understand why and how people suffer as they do. I appreciate the greater examination of society’s roll in determining the fates of the murdered women, as similar patterns continue today, and we have much to learn from the past. We too often blame the victim, accusing them of not taking ownership, when actually their mental health and life circumstances led them down horrific paths. Their murders are not their fault, but rather the fault of a weak social environment, and sadly, this is pervasive today. Thank you Hallie Rubenhold and all involved for shining a light into the shadows of these women’s lives, and so eloquently illustrating the greater context of who they were up until their ill-fated demises. Those who dismiss Rubenhold’s work as flights of “feminist” fancy are caught in a stale worldview where women couldn’t possibly be seen as abused in a culture dominated by male corruption. These days, “feminist” is often scornfully wielded in an attempt to dismiss important work, thereby underscoring the very misogynistic tendencies from which we are trying to untangle ourselves. The storytelling quality of this podcast is also hauntingly beautiful and thoughtfully produced!”

“I am obsessed with this podcast. The story telling and depth for these women’s lives and experiences is so well crafted and considered, I was absolutely heartbroken to find it’s only up to episode 5. I cannot wait for the rest of the episodes.”

“A new telling of the story we all know, but find endlessly fascinating. Researched very thoroughly, presented thoughtfully, with attention to every detail. So poignant, and beautiful I cried for women dead nearly 150 years. Absolute perfection.”

“Super interesting podcast that looks into the victims of Jack the Ripper and the society they lived in. Its interesting to see how some of these ideas about woman are still present in todays society.
In light of recent misogyny accusations towards the Met police, its quite troubling to hear the...”Read full review »
