Cold and Missing

Cold and Missing focuses exclusively on cold cases and unsolved missing person cases. Every week Ali and Eli - a husband and wife duo- will bring you either a Cold Case or a unresolved missing person. Ethically, we are not interested in talking about solved cases and reliving another families trauma. We are interested in being a small part of the solution and the hope of the podcast is to keep unsolved cases in peoples mind and generate tips. Cold and Missing is for fans of true crime who appreciate deep research into cases.

Creator & Host

Ali is the creator of Cold and Missing. Growing up the passion for true crime was planted early by spending countless hours watching tv shows with her mother. As she grew up and the world of podcasting exploded she knew she wanted to create a podcast with her passion for true crime. However, ethically speaking she did not want to cause another family trauma by bringing up their worst day. Instead she wanted to be a small part of the solution and her love of the unsolved seemed obvious. By focusing on cold cases and unresolved missing person cases Ali hopes to help keep the name of the victims alive and let the families know that their loved one is not forgotten about. Thanks for stopping by and stay safe y’all!
