20 episodes

Some crimes don't get solved. Some families never get justice. Unsolved, hosted by award-winning crime journalist Barry Cummins and RTÉ presenter Katja Mia, is a true crime podcast made in the hope that someone listening knows something. In each episode, we investigate Irish cold cases with the victim firmly at the centre of the story, focusing on the lives behind the headlines, what we know about the crime that took them from their loved ones and the lasting impact it had.
