Michael's thoughts: Obviously I don't speak Swedish, to be honest sometimes I barely speak English, but having spoken to some of my Swedish listeners, they always rave about both of Dan's podcasts, praising them as expertly written, intricately researched, professionally presented and highly addictive. So don't expect a brief overview of a bad-boy, Dan's podcasts go in deep in to the world, the history of the psyche of each serial killer. Take a look, there's more than 100 episodes to choose from, and this includes Fred & Rose West, BTK, Stephen Port and Pee Wee Gaskins, as well as a three part series on Edmund Kemper, a seven part series on Robert Pickton and the Green River Killer, a ten part series on the East Area Rapist and an eleven part series on The Zodiac. I know! Wow! It makes you want to learn Swedish, am I right? I strongly recommend you give it a listen. Mx

Q & A with Dan from Seriemördarpodden
  • How did you get into true-crime podcasting? I tried podcasting about everything I was interested in but true crime was what people were interested in.
  • What podcast (true-crime or not) first inspired you? Last Podcast on the Left.
  • What was your first episode and why was it an important story to tell? I did a three episode series on Carl Panzram. His is just a very interesting case.
  • What’s been the best episode you’ve produced so far? A 12-part series on EAR/ONS (who is now called "The Golden State Killer) long before it was solved.
  • What’s the biggest mistake you find that murderers make? They kill people.
  • What’s the most obscure true-crime fact you know? Facts about a local murder case like which balcony the witness was located on.
  • Which piece of research are you most pleased with? My very deep 176-episode investigation on the murder of Swedish prime minister Olof Palme. However, that is another one of my podcasts: Palmemordet
  • Which case has been the biggest joy or headache to cover and why? EAR/ONS. People just loved it. Bear Brook was fairly complicated.
  • What have you learned about yourself whilst making your podcast?  That my voice sounds a lot better to others than it does to me.
  • Has any case proved so tragic/sad you’ve had to take a break from the research? Albert Fish was very tragic.
  • If you had a time-machine, which murder would you love to witness simply so you could say “oh, that’s what happened?” The assassination of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme in 1986.
  • Are there any solved cases you feel are misunderstood, badly reported or miscarriages of justice?  Therese Holbachs murder from Making of a Murderer.
  • What’s your thoughts/theory on Jack the Ripper? I have no idea. I tend to avoid that particular case.
  • Have you ever been contacted by the victim/killer’s family and why? Only when I wrote a novel about the Laser Man case (Sweden, 1991)
  • Why is true-crime so popular? It is a history lesson with a lot of action
  • Is it right to fancy, admire or worship a serial-killer/murderer? No.
  • Which case do you feel is over-exposed / under-exposed? Ted Bundy
  • Which murderer (if any) do you feel is misunderstood?  None. Just do not murder people. It is not hard.
  • What has been the greatest innovation in solving crimes? DNA
  • Which murderer/serial-killer (if any) could you sympathise with or relate to? Matti Happoja, the serial killer that killed killers - a real world Dexter
  • Given their often tragic backgrounds, should we see murderers as victims too? In some cases, perhaps.
  • Why do some people kill and others don’t? That is a very complicated question that I would love to know the answer to.
  • What’s the nearest you’ve ever been to a real murder case/crime? I live close to the site of the Prime Minister Murder in 1986
  • If you were to be murdered (God forbid), how would you prefer to go and how would you want the podcaster who covers it to describe you? I would like to jump in front of a terrorist who would have killed 1000s and die along with him. This would preferably happen in Soho so Murder Mile could cover it. And describe me as a hero, of course.
  • How would you cope as a homicide detective? Very well. I would love to do that.
  • Which details about crime do people always get wrong and why does it infuriate you? Serial Killers are all white males 30-40 years old. FBI dispelled that myth in 2005 but it still lives on.
  • Where do you see your podcast going over the next few years?  I want to make it the biggest true crime podcast in Sweden. It is already quite close.
  • Which upcoming episode of yours are you most excited about researching/writing? Toolbox Killers.
  • Why should new listeners give your podcast a try? Me and my team do the deepest research and do not shun details. If you want to know everything about a case, listen to Seriemördarpodden.
  • Do you have a message for your loyal listeners?  I love you guys. Stay tuned.
