- As incurious as you’d expect from ACA
After hours of listening will go away from this podcast having learned many details. There are the usual interviews with random neighbours (“such a nice quiet street”), long-forgotten school mates (“never thought he’d do this”) and chase interviews (which, despite the host’s attempts to justify them, only exist to provide racy footage for TV, and lose much of their impact in audio-only). In episode 6, there’s an interview with a criminologist, who’s treated as an expert on cult crimes. She’s not... more

What a well made podcast about such a heartbreaking story. Elizabeth deserved so much better, I hope her sister is able to get some sort of justice in her honour.
UPDATE: I’ve just listened to season 2, and what a ride! I don’t see the correlation between the 2 seasons, but it was great regardless. The only drawback being that the sound dropped out occasionally, which totally defeats the purpose.

I was listening to the saints and loved it and now when I click on that podcast, it’s gone and it only pulls up terror at Bondi. Any help?

As a parent of a child with Type 1 Diabetes, this is so shocking to me. What these people have done is beyond negligence . Managing T1D requires vigilance, education, and compassion. To see such blatant disregard for Elizabeth’s safety and medical care is so disturbing. Thank you for bringing going this case to light, people need to be educated!
