Good but lots of waffle

“Poor old Mr Cecil and Ryan, it’s like the blind leading the blind. Peter has decades of notes and his own research, all Ryan had to do was sit down, makes sense of it and join the dots from research from 20 years ago, written by what is a very grief stricken man.
Instead what we get is a lot of boots crunching, pointless door knocks, unedited filler, and countless raw audio of unreliable witnesses and narrators - heroin users and people with something to hide or forget. Interviewing random louts at-length in Footscray was a lowlight.
Ryan stresses he is not a trained journalist and it is evident through the blind alleys he goes down, either to stretch the podcast out and give paying subscribers something to listen to, or because he isn’t self aware.
But surely as a trained lawyer he would have a better BS detector and a harder nose with some people he interviews, and with a better ability to better disseminate information.
Episode 16 is the most interesting in a while, in what could have been a very well edited 8-10 part series. It is still somewhat interesting and is produced to a good quality - except for some interviews - but there is a LOT of filler. Who knows how long it will go?
I enjoyed series 2 too but that had a lot of filler and a lack of direction and decisiveness but series 4 is another level
With that said it projects the case forward into the modern day and I hope some answers are delivered for Alana and her poor family”

“Well done for your professional and informative podcast. Your genuine and bright personality shines through. A big commitment well conquered by someone without the access to resources that for example ex cops have in completing their podcasts, (i.e acquisition of police logs).
Great interview...”Read full review »

“Well done Ryan on your amazing, thoughtful and thorough work.
I listened to series one and thought it would be so wrong not to subscribe.
Your delivery and empathy is second to none.
Wishing you all the best for your future work.
René.”
