Our take on The Deck podcast

The Deck looks into some of the coldest yet unsolved crimes. It is hosted by Ashley Flowers. Ashley Flowers also co-hosts the award-winning 'Crime Junkie' podcast and oversees several true crime podcasts. She shuffles through the Deck and presents a story about unsolved murders and unexplained disappearances.

Ashley Flowers explains how law enforcement agencies put victims' faces on playing cards and distribute them to prisons. These cards are commonly referred to as 'Cold Case playing cards' by crime investigators to find information from inmates who might have information and recognize their faces. These are crucial elements to understanding this podcast.
