We've all heard the phrase, that kind of thing doesn't happen in our town.

But here on Midwest Murder, we will shatter that false reality.

In fact, it happens more often than we know.

And sometimes the details of the most horrific crimes that happen in our neighborhoods are lost in the back pages of newspapers, forgotten on our news channels, and eventually erased over time.

We are here to talk about murder, diving into some of the most controversial cases in Midwest history.

This show will not shy away from the morbid details of these often horrific events and the ugly truth behind it.

What you will hear is a detailed timeline of events, perspectives from those closely involved, and analysis by experts.

What you will feel is the darkness that surrounds

each story, the innocence lost by the victims, and hopefully the justice that was ultimately

delivered.

Ooh, Don Palumbo.

This is such a cool room to be in.

Thank you, Speakeasy.

This is a great place to tell a story of murder.

I feel so fancy.

Thank you guys all for being here with us.

And a big thanks to everyone who's taking a moment out of their busy lives to review us on iTunes.

Don, I'm curious, what are people saying about Midwest murder these days? Well, this one kind of makes me blush, and I'm kind of mad at you for making me read it.

But it's from Evelyn H. 3, 12 in December.

She's a best host.

I love true crime anything.
