It’s a positive out of a very sad situation that Sally has grown to be doing what she can for others now. Speaking well and she is so kind. Still the breathy and puffing voice.. I thought was only from her stress in “TLV” podcast. It comes across on the microphone as does her cute way of saying New Souff Wales. Some little feedback moving forward.
Thank you Sally for being so brave. xx

Did Ric Blum leave the first review? Hubris? Self importance? What podcast was the person listening to? Sally lost her mother, was lied to and dismissed by the authorities, lost her brother, lost the support of her mother’s family. She’s still being let down by the authorities. I don’t understand the adversarial attitude of the authorities in New South Wales police (if the police don’t like podcasts, then they should do a little more investigating). This is just a generalization I know but it se... more

I listen to you and wish you were in the US. My uncle went missing in the mid 70’s and my mother died never knowing what happened. I have no idea how to research this in the insane country in which I live.
Apple Podcasts5Guns controlUnited Statesa month ago - Good but missed opportunity.
My heart goes out to Sally and the family of missing people. It does matter. Having just listed to Des Matters it was too much about Sally. Appreciate Sally is still healing, however I’d encourage her to practice interviewing, and focus sharing her skills and insight for the benefit of the person/family being discussed. I appreciate Sally is still healing and while the conversation was interesting and natural, making it all about Sally is a missed opportunity for what could be a great podcast.... more

First of all my heart goes out to you Sally and we hope you get to find your mum. A bit more structure to the story would have been great. I got lost and the story sort of went flat. Try not talking over one another as well, it got annoying.
