“This is a show about strange and unusual crimes of the past. ‘I myself am strange and unusual’ so this immediately piqued my interest.
The show, after a quick pre-roll, begins with a suitably olden, creepy theme and brief introductions from the hosts. Less than five minutes in, it’s in to the main feature of the episode, the case.
The hosts explain where they got their information from before beginning which is a lovely touch (they also link to the sources in the show notes). The cases themselves are well-researched and the hosts present the details thoroughly whilst also offering their own commentary on the events.
About half way through the episode there was a listener question of the week section. This is a really nice opportunity to interact with the hosts.
The hosts themselves are comfortable with each other, bounce off of each other well and make each other laugh (they’re sisters after all). All of this helps you to switch off and enjoy the show.
There was also a fun fact section which helps to break up the serious business and teach you a few things. A lot of effort is clearly put in to this show.
Overall, this is an enjoyable and interesting dive in to the stranger crimes of days past.”
