Like a few others started listening to this because it was introduced on an episode of Cautionary Tales. After couple of episodes of “suppose this”, “maybe that”, and “it isn’t hard to assume”, combined with a lot of axe grinding about critics real and imagined, it is a bit much to endure with few fact-based insights. Yes, we all agree, living conditions were terrible for the poor in the late 1800’s and especially so for women. Was eager for a new take on these horrendous crimes and initially thought here’s a very clever take exploring through victims’ lives and perspectives. However, this podcast’s attempt to do that falls woefully short because instead of actually and factually exploring these women’s lives, it seems overly bent on convincing already convinced listeners that these victims are worthy of the exploration. After 3 episodes of “convincing” via generalized inference and the start of a second or third rebuff of critics in the fourth episode with few actual insights, I stopped listening. I would suggest you don’t even start.
