Criminal, Interrupted is a true crime podcast that dives into cases where something doesn’t add up. We explore the twists, the motives, and the moments where justice goes off course. Each episode takes you inside stories that are unsettling, unexpected, and hard to forget. As the host of Criminal, Interrupted, I studied psychological science and criminology, and being a level of understanding of human behaviour and storytelling to the podcast. Twice a week, I share a case that lingers in my mind and I invite listeners to explore the stories with me.
