“David Marr is an excellent writer and public speaker. I would have given this 5 stars except that on listening to this wonderful podcast, one might think that girls have never suffered. As an ex-catholic, whose uncle was a priest and friend of the Bishop of Ballarat, and whose Aunt was a nun in a Catholic orphanage, and later on a Catholic reformatory in Melbourne, I know much about what went on amongst the religious in the fifties. I know of what happened to a classmate when she was impregnated by a priest and how all the Ballarat clergy knew about it. What happened to her was tragic, but covered up by the church, of course. There are still many stories out there.
