  • True Crime Conversations

    I first listened because my daughter was interviewed about her podcast ‘The Nurse’ after it was released.

    I find each episode to be a refreshing change from the ‘ reporting’ style of most true crime podcasts. The guests are eloquent and extremely varied personalities and no two episodes are the same. Definitely a great listen!

    I was listening to the show about Lisa McVay and I had to say that it was so moving and I feel so much for this lady and what she’s been through in her life. I think she is so inspiring in people feel sorry for themselves after much less difficult circumstances. Wow! I can’t even find the right words to say how listening to these episodes changed my perspective. ❤️🙏🏼

The Mum Who Cyberbullied Her Own Daughter
Q: What was it like to sit down with Kerri and really get the perspective of someone whose family member is the criminal?

Q: Do you think Ed Gein would have gone further had he been able to access his mother's body initially?
Harold speculates that Gein may not have gone further since his actions were largely driven by his fixation on his mother.
