Great history, though overproduced
Hallie Rubenhold’s book about the women murdered by Jack the Ripper was a revelation of historical research. It’s great to hear her talk about the women again in this podcast. However like many Pushkin podcasts it wastes time on sound effects and so-called reconstructed conversations. Kind of silly actually as we don’t actually know what the era really sounded like, so this part of the podcast counteracts her emphasis on the need to be true to the historical record and seem very cliche ridden. A shame actually that she was talked into including these reconstructions. The straightforward interviews with historians and other experts are very interesting and useful. That should have been the focus.
