About 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.

But it wouldn't be a Halloween special without some creepiness, so we also talk about Spirit Guides, a Banshee story that left us both pretty much speechless and Joss's first book called The Callbearers.
