Cozy Crime is a long-form historical true crime podcast designed for quiet evenings and gentle curiosity.

If you are drawn to quiet mysteries, forgotten cases, and the atmosphere of another century, you are very welcome here. Each episode journeys into the past, and is ideal for listeners who enjoy immersive storytelling for relaxation, background listening, or sleep. 

The tone is calm, reflective, and slightly literary - more like a beautifully written history read aloud by candlelight than a modern true-crime broadcast.
