They said they started the podcast, called “Our True Crime Podcast,” on July 11, 2018, and since then have produced 344 episodes and garnered nearly six million downloads.

Episodes are recorded on Sundays, and a new episode is released every Wednesday at 4 p.m. The show is available on any podcast platform.
