“The production value on this is top notch. Found out about the podcast on Jeopardy, Mira’s research and narration are first class. As a history major, I value these things deeply. I wish it wasn’t an Iheart podcast in a way because I’d gladly give money to Mira. There’s only a couple podcasts...”Read full review »

“The content of this podcast is great, but the narrator is very hard to listen to. Her voice is so exaggerated and slow. Just speak normally!”

“These podcasts are so well done and informative! We look forward to them so much. A case you might want to consider is the alleged murder of a young woman by the Malley brothers who were very wealthy. It took place in the New Haven, Connecticut area. I read a book, Arsenic Under the Elms, about...”Read full review »

“There is not a more consistent podcast that entertains while also informs the listener as this. This show presents new (to me at least) court cases that, at most times, are aptly prescient to our unique times. Everyone has been a delight and I eagerly anticipate the next.”

“I really enjoyed the stories and the writing, but wish the narrator would enunciate more and speak up. I had to concentrate on figuring out what she was saying as some words trail off in the second syllable and many sentences do too. I do realize that speaking quietly into a podcast mic prevents...”Read full review »

“I’m not a history nerd. I just enjoy stories that are engaging and well told. History on Trial presents the facts and chronologies of the big stories of America’s past in a lucid and entertaining manner. I’m hooked.”

“The writers had a great idea that unfortunately took a left turn. The narrator sprinkles in progressive trigger words such as homophobic, sexist and racist to describe what most thinking people already know was unfortunately commonplace in the era these stories take place. Dumbing down the...”Read full review »

“I’m new to listening to Podcasts, but with 3 hour commute, Mira’s work makes the drive easy. Her delivery is so compelling, I feel like she is telling ME the story, not broadcasting it to an audience. My only disappointment is that she only posts every other week. With the amount of research and...”Read full review »

“Another leftist leaning history podcast, twisting history and current events to make them relate. Very slow paced, almost on the verge of boring because of the narrator. It’s a last resort in my opinion, unless I’m going to sleep.”

“Such a fascinating and interesting podcast. Mira Hayward is a skilled narrator. She also writes the narration. She has a talent for taking dry trial facts and weaving them into a compelling story. Not only do the facts become a story, but the characters come to life.
She has a distinctive and...”Read full review »

“Someone get the host a pop filter and vocal training. All the “pahh”s straight into the mic with breath noise and sentences ending in an inexplicable growl made it unlistenable for me. Other than that, good content. I’d love to listen after some appropriate vocal training and audio fine tuning.”

“The first two episodes are extraordinarily well told, well chosen, well written, analytical but not biased in any way.
You should pitch this to American experience on PBS. You should produce it, write it and narrate it”
