Nobody Should Believe Me

Each episode is filled with stories of a subject that is still being pushed under the rug. Medical child abuse is nothing new but rarely discussed this in depth. You can tell that the host is truly passionate about this subject, as it is a part of her family story. Listen and learn how this form of abuse is happening and how many of the parents are made to look like the victims in the media without protecting the true victims, the children.

Very interesting podcast. I am listening now to season 3 and I had watched the documentary so it is really fascinating how information give us more context, how the Netflix show was pretty much exploitation of a young girl’s tragic story But there are a couple of things that are not completely true Florida’s organizations that are contracted with the State can be for profit. I say that from personal experience It is also a bit misleading to say that they have no financial interests since many non-profit orgs pay exorbitant salaries to their top execs I also listen to the show with a grain of salt when it comes to how CPS (or whatever they are called in different states) are portrayed as troubled but benign. There are way too many cases of complete disregard for the children in their care. Same goes for law enforcement. In general those institutions are way too troubled and corrupt to get a positive spin. But I guess the host needs to have a good relationship with them to be able to give us more information Another point: during the podcast the host says that she is totally independent and requests donations from those who can afford. Fair enough. But why then, is there a paid IBM podcast “bonus” episode inserted in the feed? That’s not being independent.

What's interesting listening from season 1 until present day, you can hear Andrea turn into a sister with a family issue into a true crime podcaster and that isn't necessarily good. Especially in season 3, I skipped a lot through her exasperated sighs and bewildered chuckles. My favorite episode was the one with Dr. Jessica Pryce and it for better or worse showed how much more composed and well spoken Dr. Price is compared to Andrea.

I hope Andrea Dunlop keeps the spotlight on this issue. She puts the work into these cases.
