Mums Mysteries & Murder
We're two Mums living in Edinburgh who are obsessed with true crime and mysterious happenings, so obsessed we decided to start a podcast! Each month we take turns to tell stories from our homelands - Cheryl Scottish born and bred where haggis is NOT actually an animal and Marti from the land down under where no prawns have ever been thrown on a barbie, it needs to be said! So, if you want polished, professional true crime then this is not for you, maybe try Casefile. But if you love true crime and mystery like us & you can't stop talking about it, give us a listen! Its not big or clever but it is entertaining.

In our SECOND episode of the month!
Cheryl tells the story of Robert Black, the Scottish serial killer and paedophile whose horrifying murderous reign began in the 70s and continued throughout the 1980s.
We also chat about the Edinburgh Fringe, what our Mastermind Subject would be- you'll never guess! And why one of us won't be swimming in the ocean at Portobello anytime soon!
