  • Rest in Peace, Natalie

    While this podcast wasn’t able to offer any closure or solid suspects in the untimely death of Natalie, I believe it did a good job sharing her story to those who will listen. Natalie seemed like a loving mother who would do anything to care for her boys. I am grateful to have learned of her resilience and will think of her from time to time. Her life was tragic and messy, but her story still deserves to be told. Rest in Peace, Natalie.

  • No mystery here

    Excellent host. The show is produced in a way that is captivating and keeps you hooked the whole time. Unfortunately the story is predictable. The truth about Natalie? She chose a lifestyle that killed her. She’s a wayward girl from a wayward family, caught up in the wrong lifestyle. There’s nothing novel about that. There’s no hidden secret. It would be more shocking, if she’d lived longer - with the dangerous lifestyle she chose for herself.

  • Mediocre story by a Great Podcaster

    Kipe is excellent and did a nice job. The Truth about Natalie is she was a low class lowlife, who made terrible decisions and led a sketchy lifestyle. Surprise, she mysteriously died. Because she was a young white female, she gets a podcast.

    You can lump this story in with the missing and killed indigenous women trend. A tragedy, I suppose. But hard to relate. So it goes.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

NEW SEASON: Nobody Should Believe Me
Q: What is your concern about transracial and international adoptions?
Concerns stem from the lack of understanding of the child's homeland and the complex cultural dynamics that are often ignored.
NEW SEASON: Nobody Should Believe Me
Q: What do you think is the biggest kind of misconception or set of misconceptions about transracial adoption?
The misconception is that the white parent knows more, leading to a narrative where the adoptee should be grateful. Instead, it requires more energy and time from parents.
