It appears as if episodes are disappearing. I love this show. I find it educational and soothing. Please return!!!
No longer active but still a delight
I started listening to this back in 2016 and I come back to revisit periodically. Though the podcast is no longer active, it’s a great sampling of bizarre crimes in Japan.
Perfect podcast
I love the atmosphere and research done for each episode, I’m so sad I came after y’all stopped making podcasts, I wish there could be more episodes :( but this is my favorite podcast rn
