TRUE CRIME
Camp Shane—one of America’s longest running weight loss camps for kids—promised extraordinary results. Campers who began the summer in heavy bodies were often unrecognizable when they left. In a society obsessed with being thin, it seemed like a miracle solution. But there were some dark truths behind Camp Shane’s facade of happy, transformed children. Kids were being pushed to their physical and emotional limits as the family that owned Shane turned a blind eye. More than 50 years after its founding, host Kelsey Snelling is bringing the real story of Camp Shane to light. In this eight-episode series, she unpacks and investigates stories of mistreatment and reexamines the culture of fatphobia that enabled a flawed system to continue for so long. Along the way, she reveals and weighs the heavy price of shame. Subscribe to Camp Shame so you don't miss an episode and follow us on Instagram @CampShame

Anna Sinfield - the journalist behind the global number 1 podcast, The Girlfriends, returns with her toughest story yet. This series isn’t a whodunnit. It’s not even really about what happened.

And as she battled to overturn her conviction, she became a beacon of hope, fighting for the freedom of the abused women locked up alongside her.

Interesting, In-depth, important stories unsilenced

I’ve been living in Miami for almost a decade. Until recent years, Little Haiti appeared to be just a “dangerous” place that one tries to avoid when driving South. Now it is becoming a much-coveted real estate area; it’s up-and-coming as art and design businesses centralized in Wynwood have begun to expand. Beyond that, little is known about the Haitians in Miami. I am glad to have found this Podcast, and the stories that real journalists have unearthed, real journalists because these are stories based on professional investigation, the voices of Oz Woloshya and Ana Arana bring me deep into a world full of rich human-interest, carefully told stories that inform, move and invite reflection. These stories happened in the past, and yet eerily they seem to be happening right now. Just like news stories, they are inconclusive, waiting patiently for a closure. The podcast somehow provides that possibility. I like this podcast; it fills the void that mainstream media no longer cares. I also like the music in the background and the writing. Kudos to you guys, who have made this possible! Can’t stop listening to it.
All Old Episodes Deleted With No Warning

I was in the middle of listening to Season 2 The Radio Murders. Come back today to keep listening and all of a sudden they’re all deleted. Why would you get rid of all the old episodes? Just start a new season for the new concept, but leave the old ones. What a terrible listener experience for those of us halfway through the story. Now I can’t find the rest of those episodes anywhere. They’ve been removed from all platforms. Out of principle not listening to this new concept until you bring back the other ones.
Good, but…

I lived in El Paso got a time just across the border from Juarez, so this topic has always intrigued me. These days, those border towns are just a savage land, but in the 80s /90s, it was very different. It’s easy to write it off as just more cartel violence but this was definitely something else. All that being said, I have an aversion to anything true crime when someone with a British accent is involved. Not sure what it is but they just never carry the same feeling that makes me want to be engaged. Sorry Oz, you did great work, I just need you to be a lot less European for me to give this 5 stars.
