Niamh's podcast pick: Lines of Enquiry
As someone who’s spent a lot of time listening to podcasts and watching documentaries on Irish crime, I’m always interested in hearing from people who’ve been on the other side of an investigation, the ones who walk into a scene and have to make sense of what’s in front of them.That’s exactly what Lines of Enquiry does. It’s a new GoLoud Original podcast hosted by former Garda forensic detective John Sweetman, who spent decades inside the Technical Bureau working on some of the country’s most significant cases.This isn’t guesswork or re-telling, it’s the view from inside. Lines of Enquiry is available now on the GoLoud app and wherever you get your podcasts. New episodes every Tuesday.https://open.spotify.com/episode/3EzGXohKAgAo9iu9ADiHgU?si=oTnSuNyoRsePnLBeK9iSag
