In June 2016, Bob Dickie went missing from his farm house near Dubbo, NSW. His family always thought there was something strange about their dad's disappearance. In 2020, a woman is arrested for Robert's murder in New Zealand; she is extradited to Australia to face the charges, but that's just the start of the story. Across an 8-week trial in NSW, we hear stories of Bob's love of women, his transgender encounters, and the shocking theory that he was fed to his farm animals.

Customer Reviews
Not bad!
While this is a well made podcast I find the subject matter troubling. I feel for the family, but not necessarily the “victim” in this case. I am also frustrated by the constant reminders that the accused is a transgender woman, as I don’t see how that is relevant to what happened.
Not objective or professional
This journalist does not present a balanced and objective view, it made me furious - he clearly made a verdict and supported the family in their view of the guilty.
Interesting story, needs better production
This is/was a fascinating case but to be honest the storytelling in this pod is a bit incoherent and muddled. It could do with stronger production both in editorial structure and music supervision. Listened to the end and the whole thing kind of petered out.
