Thank you Christine for covering Lisa in a respectful way. I thought the episode was well done.
Love this podcast for covering cases you rarely hear about in the US. Well researched and really thoughtful. Excited it’s coming back for a new season!
Can't get enough of this since I first listened a month ago! This is perfect for me since I have been cutting down my screen time. I so love the fact that details of the stories featured here are well-researched! No bias. Please don't mind the bitter loyalists who don't want to hear the ill truths about their "precious family." More power, Ms. Christine!
