The Falconio and Saffron episodes were disgraceful. Meshell just uncritically lapped up everything the guests dished out, whether it’s a dubious assumption or a dodgy amateur reenactment, without researching evidence from other much more expert sources. Stuart Coupe sounded like he was still on Saffron’s payroll and the Falconio guest was just deranged.
Unsubscribing from this drivel.
Boring & biased - limited reference to crime. Just an attempt to plug a book & so slow I couldn’t finish the episode.
This episode is so blatantly one sided it almost feels like Robin is infatuated with Murdoch. Poor choice of guest, cruelly executed. I’d give it -5 stars if I could.
I love Michelle and her podcast, however I don’t understand why the Author of the Joanna Lees conspiracy was given a voice .
Come on Michelle, I know it’s good to hear all voices but this one wasn’t worthy.
Please exercise more care in guest choice .

I too had an abusive father & a childhood I can’t even think about. Well done too for taking such good care of your brother at such a young age. And now serving the community you work in I can only imagine how the folk around you adore & treasure you. Your words are so true Meshel. Ashton only speaks so well of their mother & I guess h... more
