“What a phenomenal podcast. I typically don’t listen to anything explicit because I feel I have such a sensitive soul, but with the Olympics playing there has been an increased interest in women’s gymnastics once again (with myself included in that interest). I began researching the Larry Nassar...”Read full review »

“I so applaud the young women who tried to plead their case only to have their concerns dismissed by their parents, therapists and the police.

“This should be required listening for anyone who cares for children. The trust that parents give is priceless and must be honored. This podcast is a heartbreaking reminder of what happens when that trust is misused.”

Feels a bit ridiculous on the part of NPR to require ads in the middle of episodes that are this short and intense, otherwise this is a...”Read full review »
