Lyn and Chris Dawson appear to have the perfect marriage. He's a star footballer and popular high school teacher. She's a devoted wife and mother. They share a beautiful home above Sydney's northern beaches. But when Lyn goes missing, dark secrets are buried. This is no fairytale, but a sordid story of strangely close twin brothers, teenage student lovers, and probable murder. The Australian's Hedley Thomas digs deep into a cold case which has been unsolved for 36 years, uncovering startling new evidence.

Introducing: The Breakdown
Australian rugby once had $40 million in the bank. Crowds over 100,000. TV audiences of 3 million. Today the Wallabies have sunk to their lowest world ranking ever. Off the field rugby is a "war zone" with a $20 million deficit last year alone.
The Breakdown is a gripping podcast investigation from The Australian, exploring just how far "the game they play in heaven" has fallen - and why. Jessica Halloran and Claire Harvey have interviewed everyone from ex-PMs and billionaires to Wallabies legends, boardroom insiders and the volunteers battling to keep the game alive. Raw and emotional, The Breakdown is the new binge-listen everyone will be talking about.
You can listen to The Breakdown through The Australian app, or search for The Breakdown wherever you listen to podcasts.

Editing could have been better
Lots of information repeated in each episode. You don’t need to remind listeners of every detail over and over. You say it a few times, cool. But over and over, I was thinking of giving up on it. Glad I stuck with it though.
chaotic
totally disorganized, mind-numbingly repetitive. the worst job of editing l’ve ever heard. could have been great, but instead is incredibly boring. could and should have been done in half or even one third the number of episodes. just drones on and on in rambling chaos.
I’ve already listened to it 3 times
Excellent reporting and narration. The later episodes tend to get a bit repetitive, but It’s a good refresher for anyone who listened to the episodes far apart
