Samantha Azzopardi spent 10 years receiving care as a troubled teen. It would be years before the truth came out that she was actually an adult woman. Her scams stretched decades and impacted families, friends and even children, in Australia and abroad. But it wasn't money that she wanted… In this conversation, Mia speaks with investigative journalist Sharon Davis, co-host of the successful podcast Finding Samantha. Sharon worked with colleagues Tim Desmond, Nicoline Greer and Liam O'Brien from RTE in Ireland, tracking Samantha's crimes.

25 years ago David Bowie became the first major artist to release an album as a download. Around the same time, one of Bowie's super fans, Irishman Dara O'Kearney, began to receive emails from a mysterious figure who simply signed off his communications as DB.

We set out to find the truth about this bizarre story and prove what really happened. Narrated by David Coughlan. Produced by David Coughlan and Tim Desmond. (2024) Hosted on Acast.

In July 2021, a 27-year old woman, Noor Mukadam, was violently murdered. Noor grew up in South County Dublin as her father established the Pakistani Embassy in Ireland. Noor loved Ireland and could never have imagined that her murder would make global headlines, not only in Ireland but also in her native Pakistan where it became a huge news story. And the reason it became a huge news story is because those who loved Noor began a fight for justice. Noor was part of elite Pakistani society. And she was killed because she turned down a marriage proposal from a son of one of the wealthiest families in Pakistan. (2022) Narrated and Produced by Nicoleen Greer. Reporting by Hannah McCarthy and Hamza Azhar Salam. Additional recordings by Tim Desmond and Saxon Baird. Sound by Peadar Carney. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
