Vintage Homicide: A true crime podcast
Hostesses Miss Ruby Wilde and Miss Mei Day combined their love of vintage fashion with their passion for forensic science on this collaboration, Vintage Homicide: A True Crime Podcast.

We guarantee Vintage Homicide will satisfy your obsessions for true crime drama and your interest in modern retro or the vintage lifestyle.

Ballistics expert Calvin Goddard was...
