This can be tough to listen to because the abuse is so extreme and unimaginable. It could easily devolve into sensationalism, but Andrea keeps it advocacy-focused without softening the truth. That is a difficult nuance to achieve.
She puts victims first, and each season is a deep dive into not just the abuse, but how systems repeatedly fail to stop it. She details how and why the offenders slip through the cracks, and what needs to change to bring justice to their victims.
It’s heartbreaking,... more
I love this show but you lost me at Christi Noem’s horrific portrayal of immigrants! Why does everyone who has a public voice need to be involved with politics!?
The podcast is informative, well-researched, and compelling. However, as the seasons have gone on, the hosts political biases seem to be overshadowing the critical information more and more. Subtle shots at those who are not committed liberals occur with more regularity now. Everyone is welcome to their views, but thinly veiled insults aimed at half of the audience is not a great way to build a sustainable podcast. And that would be a shame, because this is one of extremely few entities shining ... more
I’ve been looking for something like this for a long time. I love true crime and this gives a different spin than the typical true crime series. This is a really fascinating show that demonstrates the dangers of Munchausens by proxy. I love the way the stories are told and I love the creator Andrea Dunlop (especially her voice which is a bit raspy and awesome to listen to. She doesn’t have that perfect radio voice and I think that makes her very human.) Also, she has a personal connection to thi... more
Too bad that this podcast is supported by Pro Kristi Noem and ICE propaganda commercials. I was shocked to hear these ads. Really disappointing to know this worthy cause would take money from these monsters.
