What happens when having an open dialogue means assassination?

What happens when staying silent means being complicit to murder?

Charlie Kirk and Iryna Zarutska, both murdered in cold blood.

This isn't just about two voices; it's about what their deaths mean for democracy, free speech, and the cost of losing humanity.

Join me in frustration, while I deliver a podcast I wish I never had to deliver, revealing the deeper meaning of these lives lost and what they reveal about the system that controls the world we live in.

In September 2021, Tom Phillips vanished from the small town of Marokopa, New Zealand, with his three young children.

What was initially branded as a search for a missing family quickly became one of the most baffling cases.

For nearly four years, Tom managed to elude authorities, surfacing only through sightings, robberies and CCTV footage.

In this episode, we trace the timeline with the little information made available, til the tragic confrontation on the 8th of September that saw the end of the pursuit for the family.

Was this a desperate father protecting his kids from a broken system, or a fugitive putting them at risk?

What does this case reveal about the justice system, custody battles, and the limits of law enforcement and media-designed coverage?

Join me as we dig into the facts behind a case that is dividing the internet.

When people in Australia go missing, families often hear the same chorus: "Resources are limited, searches can't go on forever, we don't have enough officers".

In this episode of Exhuming the Truth, we dive right into the deep end of reality in how missing persons cases in Australia rely on popularity. Using the current and "high-profile" case of Dezi Freeman as a lens, we explore why some disappearances trigger massive resources, while the majority fade into the system.

This is a hard-hitting, confrontational discussion about fairness, accountability, and the human cost of selective attention.

Tune in if you want the stark contrasts in missing persons responses and why every life deserves equal urgency.

In this episode, we look at the story of Mackenzie Anderson, a 21-year-old young Mother with her whole life ahead of her, who was brutally stabbed to death by her former partner, just days after his release. Despite an Apprehended Violence Order paired with his recent release from prison. Tyrone Thompson stabbed Mackenzie 78 times.

We walk through the failures that allowed her abuser back into her life, and the devastating impact her murder has had on her family and the community.

Paul Wilson was once one of Australia's most respected criminologists; a professor, author of 50 books, and even a recipient of the Order of Australia.

Behind the accolades was a disturbing truth.

In the 1970's Paul committed brazen sexual abuse against a minor, crimes that only came to light decades later.

In this episode of Exhuming the Truth, we uncover how a man who studied crime became a criminal himself, and we ask what his downfall reveals about power, trust and accountability.

On the 1st of October, 2022, Luke Gilbert was shot and killed by members of the Queensland Police Service in Airlie Beach, Queensland.

After a coronial inquest that saw no justice for the Gilbert family, the pain of his loss was made heavier by an unjust system that offered no accountability, no closure, and no real answers.

In this emotional episode of Exhuming the Truth, I examine the final moments of Luke's life, the official narrative, and the unanswered questions that still haunt his loved ones.

We explore the Gilbert family's fight for justice by sharing the devastating outcome of a situation that could very well have been avoided.

Join us as we shed light on the injustice faced by the Gilberts while we ask, when lives are cut short by those in authority, who speaks for the silenced?

How you can help on the ground and from afar

JACK'S ARMY search in the Ficks Crossing area, Murgon QLD, organised for September 6th

I share what to look for if you are joining the search, from understanding the terrain to spotting subtle signs others might miss.

If you can't be there in person, you will also hear practical ways you can still contribute, from sharing key information to helping coordinate resources. Every set of eyes and every bit of awareness brings us closer to answers for Jack and his family.

In this chilling episode of Exhuming the Truth, we revisit one of Australia’s most infamous serial murder cases — the Snowtown “bodies in the barrels” killings. At just 19 years old, James Vlassakis became a key accomplice to stepfather and ringleader John Bunting. Now, after serving over two decades behind bars, he’s been granted parole.

What does justice look like when one of the most disturbing crimes in Australian history resurfaces in the public eye? Should someone involved in torturing and murdering multiple victims ever walk free?

Join me as I unpack the case, the court’s decision, and what it means for the families of victims and the public at large.
