Just listened to Daniel Morcombe case, amazing police work on that one. What an operation. My favourite so far.

Halfway through the 2nd episode of EAR but annoyed already at police, terrible and I can't believe theirs another 3 episodes to come.

I don't know if it's been mentioned on here before but Sky living have a documentary on the Golden State killer
Golden State killer: unmasked
I haven't got round to watching it yet but it sounds good. It's a five parter.

I enjoyed it there was no new information that casefile missed. It was interesting to see all the various characters and the interviews etc.

Watched the first 2 and its very good. Pretty rough in parts!

That new Casefile episode is weird. Part 2 should be a cracker.

Listened to the Jonestown episodes this week. I knew the gist of the story but I'm surprised how much I didn't know. In the beginning it seemed like the guy had a positive message of racial equality and somehow the whole thing spiraled into an absolute **** show. I had no clue about the abuse that went on in the group and in the commune. I always got the impression that he was a hypocrite who didn't practise what he preached, but I didn't know how badly people were treated. It was a real eye-opener.

I thought the Honolulu Stranger (Case 62) and the Catherine Holmes and Georgina Watmore (Case 63) episodes were a little lacklustre. I don't know did they suffer from coming so close after the Jonestown ones or that they

didn't have a satisfying conclusion

.

I finished all four parts and was left thinking, "yeah I knew all that" too. The only addition was the footage of Wells when the bomb went off. Its on Netflix so I probably shouldn't have been surprised but I still jumped when we actually see the device blow a hole in his chest.

Also just finished the Silk Road Trilogy. It boggles my mind that

a simple Google search managed to unravel the whole operation.

Really good one this week. Ruined it for myself though by googling bits. The next part should be interesting though all the same.

Just listening to the 2nd part, what a sh*t show

Whole episode made me quite emotional. A sh*t show indeed. Brilliantly presented as always.

That two-parter was fantastic. So many twists and turns. One of the best episodes in my opinion.
The case unfortunately ruined the lives of so many people involved.

The mid-episode ad in Part 1 of Episode 84 made me laugh:
"Preserving your hairline can be an impossible task when listening to Casefile: the stress of unsolved cases, head-scratching investigations and hair-raising criminals can make your hair fall out."

Episode 30 of Court Junkie. Dalia Dippolito, bloody unbelievable.

CiaranW

I gave up on Court Junkie some time back.
I started listening to cold case file recently. Episode are normally 30 mins long.
Anyone else starting to tire with the blind boy podcast too recently?

Listened to those yesterday. I had no idea the site was so big and how much money was going through it. It's a bit mental :eek:


The Gary Patterson episode (Case 69) was crazy. So much bigger than it seemed at first.

Mrcaramelchoc

I hope this guy makes a few quid from doing (im sure he does) these because they have so much detail and are so well put together.brilliant.

Just finished listening to Case 80: Beth Barnard

WTF!?

retro:electro wrote: »

Loved the Beth Barnard one. Worthy of a second listen I think.

Does anyone think Vivian is still alive somewhere?

I was thinking that while listening but then

never coming back to her children seems unlikely. The phone call to her friend though...aagh! So complicated!

I just don't know. A very bizarre case.

Odd how everyone seemed to close ranks too. Maybe it's just "small town mentality"

I'm a bit behind the times, I only finished listening to this one this morning. It left me intrigued and a bit :eek: that is was over with no conclusion :P

My immediate reaction was that

both Beth and Vivian came to a sticky end though I am unsure what the motivation for it all was. The fact that Vivian allegedly told Fergus and his family that he could take the kids and she'd just head off to Melbourne seemed strange and therefore unbelievable, at least to me. Could it be that Vivian killed Beth, then Fergus killed her? There are a few possibilities, I suppose that's why it's so intriguing!

Finished the show on sky living about our friend the East area rapist. It's was actually good, the last two episodes were interesting.

I'm finally 100% up to date with Casefile. Not bad considering I only started a month or two ago. Now I have to wait weekly like a peasant :pac:

Gonna try Mens Rea based on recommendations in this thread. The local angle will be interesting.

My weekend was ruined. No Casefile episode :eek:

Caught up to Casefile now. God it sucks waiting each week. The podcast this far has been outstanding. I hope it runs for a long time. I am tempted to subscribe for the Ad Free episodes. But I even enjoy the ads. Haha

I didn't know that was an option. I might do that as well as I've had hours and hours of entertainment from the podcast. I wonder which works out better for them making money, ads or subscriptions.

I guess they make most money from Ads although would prefer subscriptions.

Also if you subscribe you get access to more episodes which are not available for free although they are much shorter.

I listened to parts 2-5 of that in one go the other day.

It's ****ing relentless. So glad they caught that guy.
