Background

Podcasting, and in particular true-crime related podcasts which deal primarily with serial murders, kidnappings, disappearances, and unsolved crimes, became popular as a media format in Australia starting in 2016. While some podcasts are privately produced, many are created by investigative journalists within media outlets such as The Daily Telegraph, The Australian , ABC, or SBS. Most detail individual cases across a short series of episodes (e.g. Cop Tales at 1 episode) while others (e.g. Australian True Crime) issue individual, or sometimes serial, episodes on different cases weekly.

Most podcasts act to provide background detail on already well known cases (e.g. A Perfect Storm and the Chamberlain case) while also updating cases for recent developments, investigations, or trials (e.g. Claremont: The Trial). Others, particularly with cold cases, make appeals to the public for information (e.g. The Alibi). [1] Many also work to provide extrajudicial perspectives on the cases they cover. [2] Some are criticised as potentially complicating, or compromising, ongoing police investigations (e.g. The Teacher's Pet ). [3] [4] More recently, "survivor" podcasts, hosted by ex-criminals who were victims of childhood sexual abuse (e.g. The Clink, The Stick Up) have become more common.

Some shows have become well known internationally (e.g. Casefile ) and others have gone on to provoke significant breakthroughs (e.g. Trace, which in 2019 prompted the parliament of Victoria to change legislation, which allowed the state coroner to then commence a new inquest into the Maria James murder case [5] [6] ). A similar situation occurred with The Lady Vanishes which led to an inquest commencing in New South Wales in 2020. [7] Another podcast, The Nurse, helped trigger a Commission of Inquiry in Tasmania in 2020. [8] In February 2022, revelations from Shandee's Story prompted the coronial inquest into her disappearance to reopen [9] alongside a wider inquiry into Queensland's state-run forensics lab. [10]

In 2018, The Teacher's Pet won the Gold Walkley for excellence in Australian journalism. In 2019, Wrong Skin, won in two categories of the annual Australian Podcast Awards: Investigative Journalism & True Crime, and the inaugural Podcast of the Year. [11] In 2020, Birds Eye View was awardedPodcast of the Year and Unravel: Snowball was awarded BestTrue Crime Podcast. [12] [13] More recently, The Nurse was awarded 2021's BestTrue Crime Podcast, [14] The Greatest Menace won in 2022, [15] and Inside The Tribe won in 2023. [16]
