Do you think the team will take a stab (no pun intended) at the Maura Murray case and do you personal think a crime took place, or that she decided to leave her old life behind and take up a new identity?

2020-06-07 00:12:19 +0000 UTCIf I listen to episodes on Patreon, does this get linked to the the Apple podcast listens? I always feel guilty about listen via Patreon, I would still listen with ads if this helps with the counts of downloads and listens! ☺️

2020-06-05 05:32:37 +0000 UTCI just want to say I love the podcast so much and your voice is amazing! You sound so intimating and mono tone when you talk about gruesome crimes, but then are also able to sell products in advertisements very well in a whole different tone. So talented!

2020-06-05 05:14:25 +0000 UTCDo you guys think that you will ever do another t-shirt / sweatshirt that just has "Casefile" on the front? I think you had some like this on the old merch site back in the day.

2020-06-05 05:11:07 +0000 UTCHi Stefan, we agree, these cases are very important and we're currently looking into several that we hope to cover. We're reaching out to family members and Indigenous community representatives to ensure these cases are covered in a comprehensive and culturally sensitive manner.

2020-06-04 03:43:14 +0000 UTCHi Stacey, some sort of unsolved mysteries podcast, a music podcast (punk rock) or a sport podcast (rugby league).
Casefile True Crime
2020-06-04 03:41:29 +0000 UTCI believe both are on our list of potential future cases. Thanks Maressa.

2020-06-04 03:40:37 +0000 UTCThank you Maressa. Much appreciated.

2020-06-04 03:38:32 +0000 UTCCorrect me if I’m wrong but I’m sure you haven’t covered any cases involving Indigenous Australians. Would you cover some of these no doubt important stories?
Stefan Bradley
2020-06-04 03:10:11 +0000 UTCIf you could host another podcast, what topic/theme would you choose?
Stacey C
2020-06-03 23:04:28 +0000 UTCPressed send too soon sorry. I would like to make a recommendation to look into the ‘Bible John’ murders and the murders committed by Peter Tobin and Dorothea Puente

2020-06-03 22:59:20 +0000 UTCHi, have been a long time listener and thought it was only fair I put my money where my mouth is and become a Patreon member.

2020-06-03 22:57:20 +0000 UTCHello from the Western 'burbs, Lizzie! If you're ever out in Naperville, let me know!
Megan Brennan
2020-06-03 22:50:33 +0000 UTCIt’s a case local to me and unsolved. I would love to hear how your team pulls it together. So many questions after all these years.
Rebekah
2020-06-03 22:50:05 +0000 UTCThank you Stewart, much appreciated. Yes there is. We have a case from all of those places you mentioned in the works!
Casefile True Crime
2020-06-03 22:43:17 +0000 UTCHi Edel, yes there have been. One I vividly remember was Becky Watts, however there have been plenty of other cases where I have shut the laptop and stepped a way for a period of time.
Casefile True Crime
2020-06-03 22:40:45 +0000 UTCHi Daniel, I wouldn't say I have a favourite. There is a whole range of factors that go into case selection, there isn't any hard set rules or anything. Some are listener suggestions, some are cases that members of the Casefile team want to cover specifically for various reasons, others are cases that we come across when researching other cases, and others are requested by families, and occasionally law enforcement.

2020-06-03 22:38:49 +0000 UTCHi Iizzie, I have, albeit briefly. I visited LA, Las Vegas, Oakland, Alaska. I would like to see more of the country! Alaska was amazing too, would definitely go back. Vegas as well!
Casefile True Crime
2020-06-03 22:36:21 +0000 UTCHi Rebekah, yes we would!
Casefile True Crime
2020-06-03 22:34:08 +0000 UTCHi Victoria, they certainly can. There was nothing pleasant about putting that episode together. We are all pretty good at identifying when we need to take some time out.
Casefile True Crime
2020-06-03 22:33:58 +0000 UTCHi Jenny, according to some reviews...... ;) "It sounds like a computer voice reading".
Casefile True Crime
2020-06-03 22:32:52 +0000 UTCHi Austin, I don't think our show is really suited to a tour. At least, not in any format that we can think of at the moment. There are actually many. a Casefile Presents project we have coming out later this year actually does expand on a past episode. We also have a few others in very early development that expand upon previous Casefile episodes too, so keep an eye out!

2020-06-03 22:31:16 +0000 UTCI first just wanted to say thanks for making Casefile -- amongst all my podcast feeds it's so great to hear an Australian voice, and discussion about Australian stories. I'm originally from Wyalkatchem in Western Australia, but I've lived in Perth, Adelaide and (currently) Melbourne, and it's thrilling to hear the backstory on places I know well! My question: I notice that the majority of the Casefile content is English-speaking countries, are there any plans to delve into Asia, Africa, etc? I imagine there's some terrific stories there too and a lot to learn about those cultures and how crime is managed there. Thanks! (Has there ever been a crime in Antarctica?)
Stewart Johnson
2020-06-03 07:53:19 +0000 UTCI broke down crying when I was finally able to finish listening to the Janabi family episode. Were there any cases either for you, Casey, or the rest of the team that while researching, writing or narrating it you had to pause or re record some sections due to overwhelming emotions?
Edel Crowley
2020-06-03 00:09:23 +0000 UTCWhat do you look for when deciding which cases to cover? Do you have a favorite?
Daniel Hentschel
2020-06-02 21:35:47 +0000 UTChave you ever visited the united states? if so, what were your favorite cities? if not, what cities would you like to visit? love from chicago, lizzie
lizzie
2020-06-02 15:35:27 +0000 UTCAnd he wants to stay anonymous, so they won't answer. His choice should be respected. 😊
Megan Brennan
2020-06-02 14:45:09 +0000 UTCWould you all consider covering the Colonial Parkway Murders? Thanks!
Rebekah
2020-06-02 13:44:30 +0000 UTCExactly how much nausea was experienced during the making of the Dennis Nilsen episodes? 🤢 Okay, now for my real question. Do you and the team find that the research/recording of really heavy episodes like those take longer, just from the sheer awfulness of it? I had to take breaks just while listening because I wasfeeling overwhelmed.
Victoria Bowers
2020-06-02 12:23:00 +0000 UTCI'm going to be annoying and ask who is Casey?!
Jenny Erickson
2020-06-02 01:50:01 +0000 UTCHave you ever considered jumping on the podcast tour circuit once the pandemic is over? Or do you think the show is best kept on a recorded format? If I may be so bold and ask two questions -- Are there any previous cases that you want to revisit and possibly expand on? Which cases are those?
