Mord am Mittwoch: German True Crime Podcast by Lucia Leona

## Mord am Mittwoch

Mord am Mittwoch is a German-language true crime podcast hosted by Lucia Leona, launched in 2024. The podcast follows a fixed format in which the host presents a new criminal case every Wednesday.

According to Apple Podcasts, Lucia Leona introduces herself and the show with the words "Ich bin Lucia" and promises weekly deep dives into authentic criminal cases. The podcast's name — "Murder on Wednesday" — reflects its regular release day.

According to Rephonic, the podcast has produced 326 episodes since its launch. The episodes cover a wide range of true crime cases, often told with a dramatic narrative angle. One example is episode #19, titled "Verliebt, Verlobt, VERZWEIFELT," about a murderer who registered his murder weapons on Amazon.

The format focuses on standalone criminal cases, with Lucia Leona narrating the course of events, motives, and investigations. The podcast appears to be an independent production with no clearly affiliated media network.

There is no documented evidence in available sources that the podcast has covered the case of the American nurse and serial killer Charles Cullen, even though this connection has been mentioned in relation to the show. The podcast's extensive episode library and weekly format have made it an established player in the German-language true crime landscape.

The podcast is available on Spotify and other podcast platforms.
