episode Case #9: The Lighthouse Keeper of Alexandria artwork

Case #9: The Lighthouse Keeper of Alexandria

Welcome, sleuth, to tonight's case. Tonight we travel to Alexandria, Egypt, in the final years of the Ptolemaic dynasty, where the great Lighthouse of Alexandria rises above a storm-darkened Mediterranean Sea. Inside the Pharos, every signal is watched carefully. Every ship entering the harbor is accounted for. And every secret passing through Alexandria is guarded closely. Until one night, during the worst of a violent storm, something inside the lighthouse begins to unravel. Because somewhere inside the Pharos, one of the people trusted to protect Alexandria’s secrets has already decided that murder is necessary. Are you ready to catch the culprit? **************************************** How to Play Along As you listen, keep your ears sharp for clues- things people say, things they don't say, suspicious objects, and strange coincidences. I'll introduce you to the suspects, take you through the key locations, and walk you step-by-step through the events leading to the death. Your mission? Decide who committed the murder and why. You can jot down notes as we go, a scrap of paper will do. But beware, there will be red herrings lurking in the shadows, ready to throw you off the scent. When we reach the end, I'll give you a moment to lock in your guess... before revealing the truth. Think you can outwit the culprit? Then let's begin... **************************************** Music Attribution: Ali Sabah/Fadfada/courtesy of Epidemic Sound Jay Varton/Eye for Detail/courtesy of Epidemic Sound Intro & Outro: Luella Gren/ Midnight Wanderer /courtesy of Epidemic Sound SFX Attribution: All sound effects courtesy of Epidemic Sound www.epidemicsound.com [https://murder-through-time.captivate.fm/episode/www.epidemicsound.com] **************************************** Created, written, and hosted by Carissa V.

episode Case #8: Death Behind the Curtain artwork

Case #8: Death Behind the Curtain

Welcome, sleuth, to tonight's case. Tonight we travel to Vienna in 1782, where candlelight flickers across the gilded halls of the Burgtheater and rehearsals are underway for Mozart’s bold new German opera, Die Entführung aus dem Serail. The Emperor himself is expected to attend. For some, the production represents the future of opera in Vienna. For others, failure would mean humiliation before the most powerful audience in the empire. Behind the stage, tensions quietly build. A rivalry deepens. A threat is overheard. And a single moment during rehearsal will alter everything. Until someone steps away from the stage… …and does not return. Are you ready to catch the culprit? **************************************** How to Play Along As you listen, keep your ears sharp for clues- things people say, things they don't say, suspicious objects, and strange coincidences.

Case #7: The Last Night In Granada

Welcome, sleuth, to tonight's case. Tonight we travel to Granada, in the final years of the Nasrid dynasty—the last Muslim kingdom in Iberia, standing on the edge of its fall. Beyond the palace, the forces of Isabella I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon press steadily forward. Within its walls, loyalties begin to divide—between those who would endure… and those who believe survival now requires something else. Everything follows routine. Every action is expected. Until one does not. And before the night is over, someone will act—believing they are saving the city they love. Are you ready to catch the culprit? **************************************** How to Play Along As you listen, keep your ears sharp for clues- things people say, things they don't say, suspicious objects, and strange coincidences.

episode Case #6: The Scent of Favor artwork

Case #6: The Scent of Favor

Welcome, sleuth, to tonight's case. Tonight we travel to the royal court of Xerxes I, in the early fifth century BCE. At Susa, the heart of the Achaemenid Empire, power is measured not only in armies and conquest, but in proximity-who may enter, who may speak, and who is permitted to remain unseen. Within the women's household, life unfolds in quiet precision. Attendants move through their duties with care. Instructions are followed without question. Every action is shaped by rank, by custom, by the expectation that nothing will fall out of place. But in a world so carefully controlled, even the smallest deviation carries weight. A glance held too long. A moment witnessed by the wrong person. A decision made not openly-but deliberately. And before the day is over, something within this ordered world will break. Are you ready to catch the culprit? **************************************** How to Play Along As you listen, keep your ears sharp for clues- things people say, things they don't say, suspicious objects, and strange coincidences.

episode Case #5: The Canary Room artwork

Case #5: The Canary Room

Welcome, sleuth, to tonight's case. A hidden room beneath a quiet storefront. Jazz spilling into the early hours. Drinks poured where the law cannot reach. In 1923 Chicago, Prohibition did not end the night- it simply moved it underground. Inside the Canary room, secrets pass as easily as cash. Conversations are half-heard. Deals are made in shadow. And before the night is over, something will go terribly wrong. As the music fades and the doors close, those who remained behind will find themselves at the center of a mystery built on timing, trust, and the smallest details left behind. Listen closely. Are you ready to catch the culprit? **************************************** How to Play Along As you listen, keep your ears sharp for clues- things people say, things they don't say, suspicious objects, and strange coincidences.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
