Burke & Hare

Mums Mysteries & Murder

We are finally getting around to covering probably Edinburgh's most notorious killers - Burke & Hare! Very well known not only in Edinburgh but there was a Simon Pegg and Isla Fisher dark comedy even made about them they are so famous, and we're pretty sure you've heard of them.
Join us for a historical romp .. just past the Iron Age but before the 60's to hear this twisted tale from Effie.
Hell, there's even a poem!
It's a very surprising episode and you're going to want to hear Marti's new version of Bag O Dicks!
Huge thanks again to Erin our podcast editor who is an invaluable member of the MMAM team and saves Marti unlimited stress!
Also, a big shout out to our featured trailer Shittin Bricks from the Boopod Network.
