Square Peg
LUSID48In 2017, an American suburban dad named Rob Collins accidentally got sucked into the bizarre world of Frank Carver, a vengeful, one-eyed British curmudgeon who’d been on a decades-long mission to have his brother imprisoned. Rob’s two-year quest to help Frank and learn the truth led him across England, to a psychiatrist in Berlin, and ultimately to a funeral—which Rob officiated. It’s a bizarrely ... more

- Appalling, unethical and degrading treatment of an old man who had experienced a life of trauma
I found this appalling and degrading. The podcasters crass pop psychology, lack of insight and empathy and narcissism made this a really hard listen. The podcaster and his producer pathologised Frank continually, calling him a liar, and a sociopath continually underplaying the horrific trauma he went through. When the producer said of him ´ he’s not an invalid’ when the guy had just been diagnosed with brain injury, was blind in one eye and literally dying of cancer I was disgusted. You took thr... more

United Kingdom3 months ago - There is no story here except borderline unethical journalism
Man with no podcasting experience is taken for a ride by an aging narcissist. In his desperation to generate some kind of story podcaster engages in reckless amateur therapy with family he has known for a few weeks, wildly indulging his subject who is clearly an unreliable narrator. I feel so bad for this podcasters family, he seems to have wasted a lot of their time and money.

I have not written many podcast reviews, but felt compelled to write something about this one. The story is well told and captures the essence of fate, several times over. The host is endearing and you can’t help but root for him. I wonder if he realizes, in the end, that he and Frank are the same in that neither can no for an answer. Very well done!

It grabbed me and never let me go.
Apple Podcasts5mspassellUnited States2 years ago - Beautifully told story
This one grabbed me right off the bat. The serendipitous and ultimately deep connection between the storyteller and his subject moved me deeply. I had a complicated family with deep divisions at times so I empathized with all the various people who were featured. I felt I knew and could understand Frank - his struggles. A profoundly human story.
