What Came Next
Broken Cycle MediaWhat happens after the experiences of true crime survivors have been shared with the world? Does the media truly capture all it entails to survive such tragedy in the public eye? What comes after the convictions are in, the cameras stop rolling, and the court of public opinion has spoken? Can sharing our stories lead to justice, and is there ever really justice? These questions and many more are... more

- Thank you ❤️
Thank you for giving a voice and safe place for all of us survivors. The Jen Higgins episode was really beautiful ❤️ I love the idea of the 3 socks. In one of my abusive relationships my ex would try to catch me and hit me with his car if I managed to escape the house during any of his episodes. I would often be barefoot, have only one sock on after defending myself or have the only pair of socks I managed to get on (often mismatched) when I saw what was happening and would make a run for it. more

I love listening to WCN. The hosts do a great job! The stories shared are engaging and eye opening.

Just more tiresome liberal propaganda. Started well but nowadays it’s basically an anti Trump yawnfest. Boring.

I listened to the episodes about Mae Scott and then ran to kindle to read her book. There were times I had to take a break from reading the unbearable harassment and endless attempts to break her. She is one of the bravest women I have heard on this podcast. I don’t say that lightly because there are incredible stories of endurance through abuse, trauma and adversity on this podcast. I hope that her book can give hope and strength to those that are and will be going through similar circumstance... more

I used to love and look forward listening to this podcast. The first seasons were awesome, they kept it entertaining and with a big spotlight on the victim.
This season’s first episode killed me… the song was like 10 minutes long. While her voice is beautiful this is not a broadway show.
Then Tiffany talking about statistics for about 15 minutes felt completely unnecessary. While I appreciate the facts and research, I don’t think it should be that long.
I wish she’d go back to listen to seaso... more
