About Whitman on the Case

The 1857 murder of Harvey Burdell shook the nation. Since then, it has spawned true crime books, scholarly essays, podcasts, and novels. Yet, one of the perhaps most famous chroniclers of the case has been forgotten: Walt Whitman. Follow a team of university researchers as they recover the Good Gray Poet's lost reporting on the case and unearth what the author of Leaves of Grass had to say about New York City's most notorious murder trial.

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.
