    Incredibly repetitive. Skipped through episodes and didn’t feel I missed anything.

  • Fascinating series

    Really interesting and well-researched. The only niggle for me is that two of the younger women who contribute a LOT speak with really bad vocal fry; it sounds terrible and really starts to grate after a while. Please get some vocal training if you want to consider a broadcasting career. Recording seems to amplify it.

  • Bronwyn- where is the justice

    Seriously loved this podcast! It seems like Bronwyn's daughters may need a talk with Sarah Turner to see the light! How can they look at the evidence and not see? Love the reporting and praying that Australia convicts Jon before he dies 🙈

  • That’s enough

    Great first season and even the second season but how long are we going to talk about the same “evidence”. Justice for Bronwyn!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

New Show: The Flood - EP2: Shut all hull valves
Q: Was anything going through your head at that point?
A flood of thoughts and fear, but mainly the instinct to focus on the immediate danger, get back to the motor room, and relay information to those who could help fix the problem.
Episode 36: Forever Loved
Q: What do you think about the investigation's impact?
It has restored a lot of hope for us, especially after years of nothing happening.
Episode 36: Forever Loved
Q: How did you feel about being involved in this investigation?
It's been great. No regrets at all, despite the hard times.
Episode 36: Forever Loved
Q: What do you hope the podcast can achieve?
I hope the podcast might still generate someone else's interest or it might push someone who's sitting back and wanting to say something but too frightened to come forward.
Episode 29: Out Of Character
Q: When is this?
I don't know. Perhaps Sergeant Taylor might need to look at that.
