    Sources
    What are the sources for the narratives? Seems irresponsible to give such a narrative style podcast without citing to specific sources to justify and validate the story being told.
  • PW from GR
    Excellent!
    Another Airship winner. Great writing, narration, music, editing.
  • Nashville Neil
    Better than the rest
    Well written, thorough, and entertaining to listen to. Paints a picture that resonates with what you’ve read and know about the subject. And if the subject is new to you there’s no better place to begin to learn. Take your time and savor these episodes!
  • Big d Randy .jr
    On top
    This is my number one podcast right now because it stands out from all others in a unique and intriguing way of storytelling
  • Doug P in a Class C
    A standout in a crowded space
    Easily my current favorite podcast. Keep them coming Airship!
  • Lisa Romulus
    Smart and Engaging
    Jeremy is the best narrator! His perfect voice combined with compelling content makes this my favorite podcast for true crime and great storytelling.
  • AFP214
    Best EVER
    The content of these series is unmatched. I love the mix of history and mystery in each episode. These things along with the best voice out there make this a hit.
  • Catskill Critter

  • patsrevsfan4life03
    Great Show
    What a great narrator
  • Westside Cali
    Riveting
    This show brings such a variety of well told stories with an entertainment, but historical context, both recent events and American Icons in crime, I love it.
  • Steph8391
    His voice tho!!!!
    Besides Jeremy S voice being what I consider a perfect podcast or narrative voice- the storytelling and research is thorough as well as compelling. I sincerely hope he continues to bring us many more tales in the future 🤞🏼
  • AnimatedMeatSack
    Oh, these stories…..again.
    I’m giving you 4 stars, because I’m not a complete jerk. I haven’t listened to the show, and I’m not going to. If you start a podcast, maybe try and do a series on cases that haven’t been beat to death by EVERY. SINGLE. OTHER. TRUE CRIME SHOW. Good luck keeping people interested in topics they’re likely already familiar with, as they’ve been in popular and true crime media for decades now. Nope.
  • lkulm

  • Cj rom
    Well Done
    Another well-written and well-delivered podcast. Great job!
  • Linda NY 623
    Background music is a little too much
    I don’t think you need constant music and noise in the background. It’s a little loud and distracting.
