Guys do you have any informal relationship with the Australian True Crime Podcast. I find the two very complementary with your detailing the case and theirs going more behind the scenes.

...and just for fun: have you ever owned a balaclava or driven a Holden? ;)

Hi team! Great work as always! Question for the host: Genetic genealogy is becoming a hot topic since cases like EARONS and Bear Brook were solved through use of familial DNA. There is a lot of debate about the benefits versus risks of submitting oneβs DNA profile for use by law enforcement. How do you feel about genetic genealogy as a tool for solving cold cases?

Hello everyone. Do you actually think pedophiles and psychopaths can be rehabilitated? Also, for the host....I love your voice so much that βSiriβ is now an Australian man on my phone.

Hi Casey & Erin. Hope Iβm not too late with a question. Quick question for Casey : Have you ever been somewhere and someone has recognised your voice ? Have a great day, and just wanted to say .... awesome job on the podcast. Thank you to everyone on the team for all of the hard work and effort you put in to bring us the podcast.

To the casefile team, in the US there seem to be a number of crime con events attended by the various podcasters. Do you think Australia would host such events? If so, would members of the casefile team attend (not you anonymous host). π

Welcome Erin.
Lawrence Wallis
To the entire Casefile team. Loved hinterkaifeck will we be seeing more older cases like this in the future on Casefile?
Samantha
To Erin, great work on the Hinterkaifeck case -- it has been one of my favorite episodes yet. After researching the case, do you personally favor any one theory of what happened to the family? Thanks!
Issak
To Erin, congratulations on joining the best true crime podcast in the world. Youβre doing a great job!!! The question is, how do you get along with the team? Are they a great bunch to work with? And is everyone like, initiated and made to swear to not reveal the hosts face or name? lol
Beth Fairbanks
With true crime podcasts being so popular now do you ever feel the pressure of keeping up? Do you have any big multi parts coming up, similar to jones town or Silk Road? Welcome Erin!
Bryce Patzel
To Casey: how long do you realistically think Casefile will run for? And is this your full time job as I would think it would take up alot of time! Cheers

Hello Casey and Erin (Fun fact, my first name is actually Casey (male) so I am quite partial to the nickname :) I recently caught up with all the episodes and though the unsolved cases are always my favorite, three stand out as just hopeless frustrating, the Lindsey Buziak case, Lisa Marie Young and Prue Bird. All are heartbreaking and you just wish you were there to save each of them. What was your most frustrating case to record or work on either frustrating in the outcome or the process was taxing on you. Thanks. Love the show, everyone.

Welcome Erin!

To Casey: is there a reason you want to keep your identity a secret? And do you have anything big planned for when you reach your150, 200th episode? Love your voice and podcast so much, thankyou to everyone who works on them I canβt get enough-Tahlia

Welcome, Erin. Congrats on working for Casefile :)

For anyone reading: has working on a true crime podcast (especially a high quality one like Casefile) ever made any of you want to pursue further work in criminal law, justice, psychology etc? I often find so many aspects of the cases to be truly fascinating and I wish Iβd done something different in my education. Most of you sound young enough you could change course and actually engage in a career related to criminal justice etc.

Hi Casey, have you ever gotten in contact and/or meet with any other popular true crime podcast hosts?
Jake
Hey Casey, are there any cases you felt like where too gruesome or disturbing to make a Casefile about?
Helena Van Horne
And to Erin: What is is like researching a really traumatic and gory case like Mark Kilroy? It was a really hard listen so I imagine delving into that would have been awful.
Helena Van Horne
To Casey: Was there a particular case that first got you into true crime and if so what was it?
Charlotte Trueman
Casey, you've mentioned in previous Q&As that Casefile started as a project to fill time while you were off work with an injury. Assuming you do the podcast full time now, when you left your job, were your colleagues/friends/family surprised to find out you had been making a podcast during this time and did you ever see yourself as having a career in the creative industries? For Erin, as there are now a number of full time writers on the team, how do you decide who writes up which case? Do you all have to pitch your own ideas or is there a running order you work from where your cases come pre-assigned?
