Does anyone else love it when Simon gets to a part in the story that's a little graphic and he just continues in his calm, polite voice and then says, "That is all kinds of f***ed up".
I live for Simon saying that’s all kinds of f*cked up.
I just have to imagine him as a very professional BBC presenter, saying "that is all kinds of fucked up" so calmly and in that cadence.
@@groofay Difference being we can trust what Simon/Callum say so much more!
This guy beat me to this reply^^
@@philbarrett3739 you're totally right mate. I don't even watch the news anymore, just Simon. He's more believable!!
As a South African and a true crime junkie I have to admit this is the first time I see someone covering a serial killer case so close to home. Thank you
This is true - and we have a lot of true crime material in SA!
Station strangler and the others are quite good stories.
We have a good selection 😁
Picked up a hitch hiker outside a village in KZN and dropped him off at the NG Kerk in the village 25km away where I lived at the time.
Around a week or so later, he was on the front page of the Beeld having been arrested for murdering his family and burying them in his garden in JHB.
Unfortunately I am not able to remember his name.
*as a European settler still living in South Africa. There. I fixed it for ya
As a South African....my country can unfortunately provide endless content for this channel
Home of the most important African American Elon Musk and the most beautiful African American Charlize Theron. Be proud. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It's very unfortunate for you all, some of my favourite people are from there.
Kind, generous, and full of good humour.
As a fellow South African, I'm inclined to agree
Unfortunately true, but we have some amazing people too!
Really hope u guys manage to fix this shit!
Don't even the richest people in your country notice, more taxes to help the poor and fight the crime is more effective than spending 10% of your earnings for security and safety that is not necessary in other places.
When you find out that all the countries who have the most serial killers also have some of the most law enforcement funding per person, suddenly you realize they are absolutely everywhere, and some countries are just better equipped to detect that there are serial killings even happening.
Hahaha South African police departments definitely do not have funding.
That would mean countries like Italy, Japan, Germany or France are less equipped to find serial killers than South Africa?
If we go by per capita the statistics change a bit and developed industrial nations have better rates , in this case less serial killers (both in total and per 100,000 compared to SA) because they probably detect and treat potential candidates before they can act. Well with the exception of the US, which still has about 3 times as much (0.99 per 100,000) as the next dense country, Australia (0.33 per 100,000) and Britain (0.30 per 100,000).
Simon: "Why do English speaking countries have so many serial killers?"
Also Simon: *Has a very popular podcast for English speakers fascinated by crime and murder*
Serial killers aim to please! 🌞
Going by the patterns Simon finds they probably treat their children badly.
We don't it's just reported more. China and Russia both massively under report there serial killer numbers.
I've been asking for him to do a Biographics on some Belgian killers for years, there's some great ones.
@@itarry4 and South America...... Colombia is frightening!
Simon to Danny: 10 pages is too long
Simon to Callum: 18 pages I love it
Poor Danny.
That’s cause Simon sits for criminals and paces for blazes
Beat me to saying that waffles
Long scripts keep Simon out of the public houses.
Can you imagine an 18 page BB it would have Simon on his feet for about 90 minutes. Wait....I can picture it now, Simon falls over and we hear him pop a Diet Coke,pause,then he hopes up and continues Glorious
hahaha, Casual Criminalist is easier I think as I get to sit down, and it's more calm.
As a South African I'm laughing at "Rapodile", you legit made a surname sound like a type of lizard😂😂😂😂😂, we still love you thou Simon. Try breaking into syllables, Ra-Poh-Dee-Le
literally what i was laughing at as well😂 also with “Sibongile”, made it sound like a river😂
lol its Sitol for me.
i'd heard his name pronounced as Sit-Hole-Le,
i gotta admit, the south african accent is one of my favs.
Ra-Poh-Dee-Leh
@@nlloydlister with a Rrrrrolling R
Simon, Callum and Jen managed to make a story that I, a South African Criminology graduate, have heard 100x interesting all over again💯
Callum writes 18 pages and you love it, Danny writes 10 pages on the latest BB and your like "DANNY, I TOLD YOU, SHORTEN THE DAMNED SCRIPT! NO FOOD THIS WEEK!
He doesn't have to stand for this channel though. We should understand the great effort he puts into standing for 20 minutes while we dig ditches, haul cargo, or practice underwater welding.
Simon your great sacrifice is noted.
I am a South African from Boksburg and I remember this case from my childhood. It became a media circus, especially as it happened so soon after the end of apartheid. This is the best representation of the case that I have seen, well done!
I want Callum and Simon to cover wartime serial killers, like the Blackout Ripper and Yoshio Kodaira
Got any sources??
*interest peaked*
@@joecephus352 they're at Wikipedia. Simple History did a piece on the Blackout Ripper as well
@@ElPirato ah yes a fellow simple history viewer
Wartime serial killers? You mean the you.s. g0vernment? 😏 lol
I found it hard to believe U.S and England are the top.
Simon: Callum, your scripts keep getting longer! I love it.
*Anguished Danny noises from the basement*
...Who is Danny? K.x.
Being rejected by one or both parents is very often found with serial killers.
Along with half the population.
@@scottashe984 there's no way I'm willing to believe half the population go through being rejected by one or both parents.... You're making that up
Yeah. Might be difficult to have a relationship with a LITTLE MONSTER! I understand why one or more of the adults in their life REALLY are afraid of them.
@Dru Baxter yeah I think there are a lot more of us out there than anyone realizes. My dad left and I don't speak to my mom, my grandmother raised me. My husband's mom gave him up to his grandmother for her new boyfriend. there's two more people who had both parents turn out to be asses.
@@LaLaLonna I always wished my Dad would have divorced my mom or that she gave us away to grandparents, it would have been better than living with the resentment and abuse heaped upon us. Against all odds, we actually turned out relatively okay. Some anxiety and self esteem issues among us when we were younger, but therapy and acquiring new loving, understanding families when we found our respective spouses/significant others helped alot.

This is so judge dredd "2410 years in cube scumbag"
me, a South African, listening to you trying to pronounce the names: 🤭😂
At least you tried x
Same.
oh, he is terrible at it. listen to him try to pronounce german names... or any non-english, basically.
@@tolvajakos As an American, his pronunciation of garage and use of metric terminology is what gets me.
@@jed-henrywitkowski6470 well, the rest of the world does use the metric system. Although you could argue most of his viewers are from the US, but I really don't know about that. Some of his sponsor products are only available in the USA, but who knows. Garage, yeah, that is probably pronounced differently in every single English-speaking country. It's a French word anyway.
😂😂
People who start relationships with convicted inmates is a symptom of the helper syndrome. Those people think they can fix the convicts. Also, there's an element of control to this relationship, where only she can enjoy freedom. The convict is available at regular times and can't go anywhere or cheat on them. So yeah. That's why.
I thought it was mainly a weird fetish for danger, it has a word that I cannot remember, but it's essentially a fetish for killers because the thought of being possibly in danger is thrilling to them.
Either that or they have hybristophilia, which is a intense attraction to those who commit violent crimes.
@@shadowdroid776 It is a fetish a lethal one 😓
If memory serves me correctly, another theory is that people (majority are women) who get into relationships with prisoners are much more likely to have had a history of being the victim of abuse. Being able to turn the tables and be the one in control of the relationship to that degree is probably attractive to people who have never had that in the past.
I love Jen's sense of humor and edits in this one, perfect!
I was going to comment the same thing! :D
It’s the perfect compliment to the grim subject matter. It’s a nice balance
Definitely! I haven't enjoyed edits this much in a bit! Lmao
She deserves an award and hazard pay for dealing with Simon's crazy mic technique.
She adds some fine, vintage blood...err memes.

Fun fact. The snake that keeps showing up is called Calleeanin Basementalluo. When it strikes, the poison works slowly. Agonizingly slowly... Allegedly...

Mhm, I remember swimming in a Vanuatu lagon filled with deadly water snakes, their name escapes me right now, but it's a quick and painful death too.
I never forgave the friend that made me cross that lagoon swimming.

Watching these makes me appreciate my grandmother. If it weren't for her, I could have turned out to be a bad psychopath. Instead, I'm a protective and fun loving psycho! Thanks Gigi!
Yay, 19 people that are happy I don't have crimes to write down! Gigi would have liked that! And probably Simons videos as well!
Same
I almost liked this comment, but I also like that it has exactly 69 likes already. I’m conflicted.
This might possibly be one of the cringiest comments I’ve ever seen
Other non western killers you should do episodes on are Andrei Chikatilo (Russian Ted Bundy/Peter Sutcliffe), Tsutomu Miyazaki (Japanese Albert Fish) and Takahiro Shiraishi (The Twitter Killer).
If anyone else wants to see these on casual criminalist please reply or comment the same so Simon can see the support for these being episodes.
Is that a typo or is this Mfs name doubled like that? 😂 I don't know about any of these so I fully agree that they should be covered here, I need mooooooore facts about killers FACT BOI GIVE ME FACTS!!!!!!

Jen, I am absolutely CRYING from laughing at your captions when Simon is expressing his excitement for the next Mindhunter season. You add so much to these videos and I love it so much!!
ignoring my responsibilities to watch this. simon has that effect on me
If those responsibilities are kids YOU COULD BE TRAINING A SERIAL KILLER!!!
@@HarryFlashmanVC i was babysitting when i wrote that comment 👀
what if THIS was your responsibility??
SAME.

Great to see this case covered. Very interesting case. Another very interesting serial killer from South Africa is Cedric Maake, that was so all over the place the police were convinced they were looking for 2 killers.
Im a South African born and raised, thank you for covering the case, i love the way you pronounce their names by the way!
Simon i appreciate that you try to prounce the victim's names correctly. It gives them the respect they never received in life. It is the least that can be done for them. Keep up your heartfelt story telling.
The bit about mindhunter and the violin 🎻 playing with the sad face 🤣 ,oh Callum and Jen that was good.
Simon-the-wise. I'm just grateful I have CZcams to grant me access to such a big brain at work. You're a piece of work, Simon.
Calling someone a "piece of work" is typically a negative thing to say about them, just fyi
.... he just reads scripts
On the "reads pornography" comment. Pornography was outlawed in Apartheid South Africa under their obscenity laws. So it was easier to find pornography in books and magazines than videos.
Hi there! As a South African fan, I think you'd like the Henri van Breda case, or even the case of the Waterkloof Four.
Such a great format, i love seeing Simon getting into his groove after all these years & opening up. Sharing personal opinions & talking about his kiddo. :) along with BizBlaze its great to see, and hear the real Man Behind the Man of a thousand Channels. :Edited for grammars sake lol.
I think it's so sweet when he brings up his Nan 🥰
I can't believe i left out Callum! Never see him, Nor hear him directly . But i can safely say he has impacted us all for the better. allegedly.
Hey Simon, enjoying this new chanel🤗
Here's a tip for pronouncing ethnic African names - we pronounce all the vowels to the end, e.g Sithole : Si-tho-le (sea- tall- le) if that helps🤗
Yes, and the vowels are pretty much pronounced like in Latin or Italian.
I recommend the Thomas Valva case from Long Island NY. The dad and step mother are currently on trial for murder. It is shocking how neglectful the NY Family Court system is.
Surely you mean how neglectful ALL family courts are? They're all corrupt or incompetent as hell
@@jamesduncan6729 I am not very familiar with other courts. This led to the courts allowing for a wretched murder. This kid died in an unimaginable horror
@@jamesduncan6729 some states are better than others, but yeah our civil court system is even more broken than our criminal courts
On the subject of the death penalty, I offer you this quote which neatly sums up my views, and has since I was old enough to understand what the death penalty is:
"Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement." - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
I think, at the core of it, it comes down to if you're willing to risk an innocent person being put to death for a crime they didn't commit. I know I'm not, which is why I'm against it. Innocent people being put in jail for crimes they didn't commit is bad enough, but at least then it's possible to somewhat rectify the situation. You can let someone go and give them reparations for the life you destroyed, you can't bring someone back from the dead.
Callum the not-so-casual script writer! 😂
Good one!!
35:00 "...failed to win the sympathy of the judge and jury." What jury? South African courts don't have juries.
Idk if this would qualify, but I'd love to see you do a video on Ken McElroy. Callum could write it in a way that's building him up as the perpetrator of the main crime, that way people who don't know the story can have a genuine twist at the end.
Ken McElroy
Knowing that Simon doesn't know mindhunter is done broke my heart. Hope you got through the pain!
Oh yeah he almost gave me hope that I missremembered it being canceled
Simon I love all your channels. As a South African please do a video of the Griekwastad murders. The people will enjoy it a lot!
the thing about psychology is: it’s impossible to perform actions without having emotions connected to them. enough actions and it gives you a silhouette of what those driving emotions could be.
Callum, this comment is for you.
The slow burn wanker joke was fantastic. 😂😂😂
You’re a legend, mate. A much needed laugh between the brutality.
I just couldn't concentrate! Every time Simon said 'Sit hole' I cracked up. (Pronounciation, phonetically, is 'See toe lee')
I was thinking this guy was 1 letter away from having a very unfortunate surname
Simon, your abundance of channels has been the light in very dark moments in my life. Thank you
Big love from South Africa! Thanks for covering this case
Wow! Okay, so my husband and I have been watching Simon for a while now over his various channels (although Casual Criminalist is quickly becoming my favorite...ALLEGEDLY). This morning my husband turned on a random video about the Spartans and I hear a familiar voice. I look up and there is the bearded wonder from 2016!
The best thing to do after these episodes is to watch the newest business blaze video. Its great they go live so close together, thanks!
I've been waiting for this.
Edit: You're right Simon, we do not have the death penalty.
I don't know why I've always been fascinated by serial killers but this channel is definitely a guilty pleasure 😉
No you are not our host, you are our GOD DAMN BOI WITH THE BLAZE!
or fact boy
OGBB.....Allegedly
I always expect him to say "its ya boi with the crime"
A few episodes ago you were wondering what a Casual Criminalist merch should have on it. I suggest " Let's Jump Right In, Shall we?"
Man I love Simon. I like the geographics and biographics but this one is the best because he’s funny.
If you love Funny Simon, you have GOT to check out Business Blaze. It’s glorious. Allegedly...
A video of Simon googling things that are on his mind would be epic!
This is an awesome video, I am from S-A, was aroumd 8 when all this went down...I had no idea. You should do a video on Eugene de Kock, the assassin for the apartheid government.
What about the van Rooyens?
I don't remember coverage of Sithole but definitely that of the Station Strangler (Norman Afzal Simons) , probably because I'm in Cape Town and the case was relevant for this area.
Monster of Düsseldorf next? I’m curious how one lightens the mood of that psycho
Almost 100k subs Simon! You'll be the proud owner of yet another CZcams button soon. Killing it.
the freaking cat keyboard meme is super cute
Simon standing: "Danny! Ten pages is too much!!!!"
Simon sittiing: "Callum! 18 pages!!! I love it."
Am I the only one amazed by how many channels Simon has and how many videos he pumps out?
18 pages of pure joy. For us. Not the people that the script is about. But for us 😎🥳💀❣️ Yeah.
I agree, the longer the script... the faster my day goes. The shorts are great too, but the sass and sarcasm and rants in the longs are amazing.
Yup, I always leave Business Blaze or another Simon channel to follow up after watching Casual Criminalist.

I’m south african, Simon and Calum you are fricken awesome 😅 love your channels, and you’re pronunciation of the names made my day.
"one of the worst South Africa has to offer.."
Hold on to your mic...
1) The murder of Michael van Eck - the sickest shit you have ever seen
2) Gert van Rooyen - the most evil human south0 f the Limpopo
2) The Griekwastad Murders - YIKES on so many levels
Christiaan De Wit in Boksburg was another, he killed 6 little girls and dumped them in various dams in the area, CR Swart in Benoni and Cinderella Dam in Boksburg...
Add to your list Stewart Wilken (Boetie Boer).
Its great when a new one comes out since i have watched every minute of every video on this channel.
I really love when I see a new episode of this show pop up. So good!
I think they should cover the case of Dennis Nilsen. A fascinating story and trial that Simon could do justice
So great to hear of serial killers elsewhere in the world! Please do more
I love how you just sit there and argue with the criminals. You complain about how stupid they're being and lecture them. It's hysterical. This isn't how I expected to spend my Memorial Day weekend, but I'm betting by the time it ends, I'll have run through all of these.
I have been binge watching to catch up! Thank you Simon, Callum (brilliant writer) and Jen for your inserts. Simon I love all of your channels your voice is calming and entertaining.
The thing with death penalty isn't 'should we kill criminals' but 'should we take the risk to accidentally kill an innocent'
I'm personally for it, but for people that are proven guilty. Like if there is any wiggle room for the person to be considered innocent, then the death penalty shouldn't be used. If it is a perfectly open and shut case and every arrow points to the criminal, then I'd be okay with it.
We'd need to improve our system first, a lot of innocent people are convicted.
@@shadowdroid776 sorry if I appear condescending, but you haven't spend much time looking into wrongful convictions, and it shows. You should look into Innocence Project for starters, you'll get a better idea of how often those happens, and while you can free someone after years of wrongful imprisonment, you can't resurrect the dead.
@@jellomiki nah you're right, I absolutely didn't research it. I still stand by what I feel though, and absolutely did say we gotta fix this stuff since there are innocent people going to jail for no reason. We need to find a better way to judge and sentence people based on evidence, or be more thorough, something does have to change 100%, but I do believe that, if there is no shadow of a doubt someone killed somebody and all evidence points to them and it's clearly confirmed they did it (think that couple that absolutely killed their children in recent years and went on vacation shortly after), then that person should be given the death sentence.
If not that, at least life in jail. Honestly they're very similar as you'll die in prison either way, one just has a longer duration.
@@jellomiki - I absolutely DO know how easy and common it is for innocent people to get convicted, and I still think we need capital punishment. That said, I'd feel a heck of a lot better if there was true accountability for prosecutors and police who act like the legal system is something they can play with, and if trials weren't designed like bloody game shows where 12 deliberately chosen people selected precisely BECAUSE they don't know anything about the relevant fields of science and all the ways prosecutors commonly pervert justice get to decide which of two game show hosts is the most persuasive. The whole thing is ridiculous, anyone who knows anything about forensics or criminology will never be allowed on a jury, and that's a massive problem. When ignorance is a prerequisite, it means there's something very wrong going on. Personally, I'd rather redo a good chunk of our legal system.
This was interesting. Not just the horror story but the depth you put into the details like his background and the background of his family.
As a South African, hearing Simon say that we have the 3rd most serial killers in the world in not exactly comforting...
Especially not when I have to go to bed alone tonight.
Get yourself a boyfriend, so that you don't have to go to bed and sleep alone at night. Just pray and hope that he will not eat you for breakfast.
We rank 4th for serial killers here in Canada. And I have to go to bed alone tonight too. Having a recurve bow right next to my bed with Broadhead arrows in the quiver helps though. LOL.
Lmao and femicide is also rampant in South Africa. It's just a big shithole
As a South African I can confirm that we have a long (not so proud) history of suspects falling down stairs, getting shot by cops defending themselves, or suspects hanging themselves in their cells. Our cops don't like due process or paperwork. Also, Sithole (Si-tow-lee) was a jerk. South Africa does not have a death penalty as the government used it extensively to get rid of dissidents and we also don't have jury trials - our system is based on the UK as we used to be a colony.
Yes, I’ve seen Mindhunter. Yes, I’m mad it hasn’t got a new season coming. I propose you move Danny over in the basement and chain David Fincher up until he agrees to make us another round of episodes.
Business Blaze: Danny, why is this script so long?!
Casual Criminalist: the script is even longer than last time? I love it!
Gotta chuckle when the ad before Simons video is for hair loss treatment 😂😂👀 YT got a good sense of humor 👌
I just found you today!!! I must say I think y'all are my favorite to listen to while I work... your sense of humor isnt over the top or even remotely irritating like some I've listened too.. keep up the great work. The Chicago ripper crew is a very interesting story if you haven't done one on them yet. I'd love to listen to your y'alls take on it... thank you

We know what you have done Simon!
Just discovered you today... i'm hooked and i will probably binge watch you now. Keep it coming!
8:43 Damn, I could hear Simon projecting that fate onto his own kid and choking up a little from the scenario.
Definitely hear his voice catch. Parenthood changes us all..even FactBoi
Simon, I love your asides to the folks you report on! It's like your able to read our minds, on top of your other inarguable talents;)
Jen, I’m only to the mind hunter part as of writing this comment, but you have done an amazing job. Your edits are 👌🔥 great work
Considering SA is one of the highest murder centrals in the world, we have surprisingly few serial killlers.
I would ask you to have a look at an 80s killer; Gert van Vooyen, a serial kiddy killer whose victims are yet to be found.
Well, there probably are more serial killers that have never been found. Same with south america where some killed over 50 people in the most gruesome ways but since the victoms are poor or homeless, it's never researched and they don't know it's a serial killer untill it goes way further.
Third in total serial murders isn't that few
Mindhunter may be coming back, they are in talks with Fincher
Omg I wish
Any news on that front?🤔
It's great that Simon is involved in so many projects. I enjoyed Today I Found Out, first. He's definitely one of my most favorite hosts.
What is this? Why is this uploaded now? What's happening? It's the wrong time of day for The CC.... WHO CARES HERE WE GOOOOO!! 😂🤣
I think we need to appreciate the insane effeort Callum puts into these. Great job mate.
Yeah, seriously, if people haven't watch Mindhunter on Netflix yet, go watch it!! It's great and maybe one day we'll get a season 3 if enough people watch it T-T
Per capita: Turkey, Belarus, Lithuania, Albania and Estonia are the top five in order

Leave youtube for a bit and come back to find my favorite true crime channel has done a looooooonger true crime ❤️
Thank you, Simon. The audio is great again.
PLEASE do a video on Luis Alfredo Garavito Cubillos. He has the world's highest confirmed body count.
Fun fact: In Brazil, drugdealers also punish people with our own form of "necklacing" only here is called Microondas wich translate to microwave, and consists in stuffing someone in a lot more tires and setting them on fire, this can be seen portraited in the famous movie 'elite squad' from 2007.
Jenny started sneaking memes into the video. I like that. I really like that.
My mum nearly got killed because of 'necklacing'. The man that had the tire around him grabbed onto her because she was white and important in that area. Thankfully she had the body guards with her so they grabbed and pulled her away before the poor man was taken away. She never said if she saw him burn but it's likely.
That was the last straw for my family and we started the immigration process soon after that. Happy and safe now.
Edit: this was in 1998ish.
Glad you got away.
Necklacong. The fabourite pastime of the ANC
@@hazelhadley-britt6396 I cant speak to any of the policies of the ANC for the past 20 years or so. Dont know much as we choose to not know I guess.
1st world privilege, I know.
Honestly the serial killer/murder rate is probably much higher than reported in other countries in Asia. I can personally say that law enforcement is laughable in Pakistan and India. It always surprises me how easy it is to get away with crime but then again bribery is practically commonplace…
Yhea I'd say especially the British one is due to detection and our openness on reporting them as serial killers and not hiding them to help the way we're seen internationally.
Our country is tiny and hiding murder is much harder. Places like India, Pakistan, South Africa, Columbia etc huge areas that are basically wide open country where both dumping a body and hiding the fact you're killing someone is far easier. Especially when they have such a awful police who I'd imagine ignore many reports of missing people. I don't know this as fact so if I'm wrong let me know but it would make sense.
Mexico: Corruption you say? Well well
Yeah, bribery is rampant in a lot of countries. I know it was when my family lived in Italy. Strangely, bribery is not quite as common in the US. lol Everything is screwed up here except that.
Some of the most brutal came from Russia imo, much goes unreported there as well.
@@jettanyx1 I find it hard to not think that Russia, China, some South American countries and probably some African ones must have some of the most brutal and horrifying mass murderers in the world in their country's.
The size of the country, the size of the area the killers can operate in and hide their crimes, the corruption and unwillingness to deal with such things, the fact that its often people that the state doesn't care about or listen to, the sub standard policing and equipment in the various small and far away areas of county, how easy it must be to take someone who no one would notice missing, care about if they did notice or be listened to if they were to report the fact someone was missing and their loved ones might even be scared to report such things in case the police turn on them or threaten them to keep quiet about it etc and that stupid thing of denying that such things happen in their country's because their country is so perfect and ineffected by the corruption of the West etc etc.
Like mass murder is a new cultural trend that's only just started happening. However its going to be basically impossible to ever know or find out what the truth is and just how bad it is.
South African Crimes could literally provide this channel with endless content. I say this as a South African.
Having ridiculous rules like "I before E except after C" crammed down our throats in elementary school and then seeing words like THEIR & HEIR have made English speakers insane enough to kill....... ALLEGEDLY.
I've never been a fan of murder shows/documentaries. I've watched a total of 3 episodes of True Crime, none to completion. And I refuse to watch scary movies. I do however enjoy history programs. Whilst watching an episode of Biographics, another favorite YT channel, I stumbled upon The Casual Criminalist and it's absolutely brilliant! Im in LOVE and have found myself bing watching for the past 5 days. Amazing stuff guys, keep it coming!
its also nice to see Simon relaxed and showing his personality
