Shout out to our Voyage Clients and their new Podcasts! IN THE BLOODHosted by Ben McKenzie (Southland, Gotham). He had an alibi. He didn’t have a violent history. And it seemed almost impossible to imagine the crime could have been committed by just one man.But Ronald Trimboli’s DNA test, performed in the infancy of DNA testing, was a match. Is it possible he was innocent of the triple murder he was convicted of? IN THE BLOOD presents all the evidence, including evidence jurors were not privy to, and asks you, the audience, for your verdict. SOMEONE IS KILLING THE WOLFHOUNDSBased on a true story. A group of soldiers in Vietnam decide they need to murder their rogue lieutenant, if they’re going to make it home alive. TRAINING DAY meets PLATOON.Someone Is Killing The Wolfhounds hit #1 of all fiction podcasts on Apple Podcasts! facebook Twitter LinkedIn Archives November 2024 (2) October 2024 (3) September 2024 (2) April 2023 (1) January 2023 (1) December 2022 (1) October 2022 (1) June 2020 (1) April 2020 (1) February 2020 (1) January 2020 (1) October 2019 (1) August 2019 (1) June 2019 (1) January 2019 (1) April 2018 (1) March 2018 (1) February 2018 (1) January 2018 (1) December 2017 (1) November 2017 (1) October 2017 (2) July 2017 (4) April 2017 (1) February 2017 (1) January 2017 (1) December 2016 (1) November 2016 (1) October 2016 (1) September 2016 (2) June 2016 (1) May 2016 (1) April 2016 (1) February 2016 (3) January 2016 (1) December 2015 (2) November 2015 (1) October 2015 (2) September 2015 (2) August 2015 (2) July 2015 (1) June 2015 (1) April 2015 (1) March 2015 (1) February 2015 (2) January 2015 (3) December 2014 (2) October 2014 (1) September 2014 (3) August 2014 (3) June 2014 (2) May 2014 (5) April 2014 (3) February 2014 (1) January 2014 (1) December 2013 (1) April 2013 (1) December 2012 (1) July 2012 (1) April 2012 (2) March 2012 (2) December 2011 (1) November 2011 (3) October...
