Gone Cold - No Spoilers! This true-crime podcast started in 2017 by Vincent Strange and Erica Lea out of Fort Worth, Texas, and focuses on the state’s underreported cases. Vincent is the main speaker of the show with Erica playing a much more behind-the-scenes but just as important role of editor and writer. She also voices the intro and Strange does help write the script as well. Sidenote: the rumors on Reddit are true! Vincent Strange is really a pseudonym. One of the more noticeable aspects of the show is Strange’s radio voice which has been described in places like Reddit and the show’s reviews as sounding like William Shatner’s. I actually really like it along with the pod’s excellent research and writing. Part of which the hosts credit to their brilliant backup team, Dianne and Kim, who help out with cases and the Facebook discussion group. This is a pretty serious true-crime podcast that leaves the jokes and drinking for others. You can tell not in just the writing but Strange’s voice that the victims and their families and communities are really cared about. Apple Podcasts has 4.4 average stars and 1,100 ratings. It’s still current with new episodes coming out weekly on Wednesdays. The show sometimes releases a few episodes on a case but does do single episode cases. I really like this because it shows they aren’t rushed. If they want/need a few episodes to cover a case they take it instead of trying to cram or cut down on information to fit it into a 30-minute episode. Owltail has the top episodes as The Tragic Disappearance & Murder of Hailey Dunn and Carla Walker, Part Three: Rodney. I found Walker County Jane Doe and The Killing Fields of Montgomery County to be really fascinating. The pod has definitely become one I look forward to listening to as soon as new episodes drop. Similar Pods: Montana Murder Mysteries, Going West: True Crime, and Ohio Valley True Crime.
