Cold

We’re excited to share a new podcast from Lemonada Media: Stolen Voices of Dole Valley, a nine-part series about survival, injustice, and the fight for answers. It’s the story of a predator you’ve likely never heard of — one who prowled the Pacific Northwest in the 1970s, when hitchhiking was a rite of passage for many young people. Some young women managed to escape him, but their warnings were ignored. One survivor’s account was dismissed by police, leaving the man free to kidnap and murder others. Police believe this killer was responsible for far more than the two murders he was convicted of, and decades later, families and investigators are still determined to uncover the truth. With new DNA testing and relentless hope, loved ones are refusing to let their daughters and sisters be forgotten.

A personal note from COLD host Dave Cawley: I can’t thank you enough for listening to COLD. We’re between seasons right now, but I’m dropping into the feed to let you know about a podcast you might like. It’s the brand-new second season of The Letter, a show from my friend and colleague Amy Donaldson. Season 2 of The Letter is called “Ripple Effect.” It’s about a bizarre double murder back in 1982, where a restaurant manager and a laundry truck driver were both shot to death. The killer was quickly caught, but his story didn’t make sense to police or to the families of the men he killed. And without spoiling it, I can tell you there are some major twists. I’ve watched and listened as Amy and co-writer Andrea Smardon have weaved candid, emotional stories about families affected by violence in both seasons of The Letter. They do true crime differently, getting in deep with the people whose lives are upended. In The Letter season 2, they explore how grief, anger, remorse, and forgiveness can even ripple outward across generations. It’s an impactful listen. Please give The Letter season 2: Ripple Effect a try. You can find the show here or at theletterpodcast.com.

To this day, many of Nancy Baird's own relatives believe Ted Bundy abducted and killed her; a claim Bundy denied. COLD has obtained exclusive access to the Nancy Baird case files.
