The Lady Vanishes - Where is My Mum Mari...

BRITTANY HOCKLEY AND LAURA BYRNE
About this episode

Today we've got a lot to unpack. First up is how we feel that international women's day doesn't stand for what it used to and how now the day can be tokenistic.

We’ve got a huge problem with the sex shaming that a nursing advisory board has put on NSW nurses and their OnlyFans profiles and we share the weirdest ways you found out your partner was cheating on you. Where on this planet do you find these people?

But today's deep dive is a little different for us. You might remember a few weeks ago, Britt recommended a podcast called 'The Lady Vanishes.' It is a podcast investigating the disappearance of Marion Barter 26 years ago. On today's episode we are joined by Marion's daughter Sally Leydon.

We talk about where they are at with finding out what happened to Marion, how she is being helped by a group of internet sleuths and what they have collectively uncovered.

If you have any info or would like to be a part of the facebook group, you can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/MissingMarionBarter/

Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friend and share the love because we love love! xx
