From the Vault: A True Crime Podcast

From the Vault: A True Crime Podcast is an American podcast focusing on true cases involving homicides, missing people, and unidentified persons. The program debuted on September 14, 2020, as a reinvention of its predecessor, True Cold Case Files.
==History==
From The Vault: A True Crime Podcast was first discussed when Jason Futch, the host of True Cold Case Files at the time, considered changing the direction of the podcast. At the time, the current way the podcast was being presented was true crime news presented first, followed by the main topic of the program. This was an unpopular presentation amongst people who listened to the show.
Based on Apple Podcast reviews, the biggest complaint toward TCCF was not only presentation, but also the sound quality; as Jason nor Nick were using podcast quality microphones at the time. By August of 2020, Jason and Nick came to a mutual agreement and discontinued TCCF and going forward by rebranding the podcast to From The Vault: A True Crime Podcast. 
When the podcast was rebranded, new microphones were ordered and a new strategy was put in place to stay true to the original concept of discussing cold cases that have not seen its fair share of attention. By the beginning of September, Jason and Nick recorded the first two episodes of From The Vault, the first episodes airing on September 14th, 2020. The debut episodes, also known as the pilot episodes, focused on the murders of Robert and Frieda Wheatley of Portland, Oregon; and the case of Millie Doe, a Jane Doe found in the Spokane River.
It was during the Millie Doe episode that the work of Zach Bibeault, a music producer from Austin, Texas began to work with JPF Productions on its podcast work. Through Bibeault's work, he has been able to sharpen the sound quality, as well as contribute his music to the program. He is also the creator of the current theme song and current closing theme for From The Vault. He is expected to produce all episodes of the first season of From The Vault.
