Crying with laughter

I absolutely love this podcast!! I wish there was more than one episode a week to listen to. I love the dark humour as it makes a change to most of the true crime podcasts out there and the three hosts Kim, Adam and Gerry are equally brilliant and funny in their unique way.

Looking forward to many more episodes, keep up the good work,

love Angela in the UK.
