Customer Reviews
Harrowing story 40th a in the making.
I like millions other listened to “The Teachers Pet” aghast at how such a horrific miscarriage of justice could go unquestioned for 35yrs till Headly shone a light on what the dark side of misogyny can look look & authorities turning a blind eye to domestic violence, mental abuse and childhood grooming. Now some 4yrs on we wait to find out if justice for Lynn can finally be achieved. I sadly don’t think we will ever know what really happened but Headly and The Australian have ensured Lynette Dawson will never be forgotten. Genre defining bf r true crime but importantly unique there will never be something quite like this again!
Exceptional podcast
Both ‘Pet and Trial’ were brilliant. Just sorry to finish them. What a great result. Well done everyone in the team.
Teacher’s pet and the Trial
Bloody brilliant job done!
