Bonus Episode: Interview with Tanita Mat...

Always True Crime

About this episode

In this special bonus episode, I sat down to chat for Tanita. We have known each other for a few years and I am always interested in Tanita's career making true crime documentaries. Now she has just released her first true crime book, this seemed the right time to interview Tanita about writing a book and the future of true crime tv. Look out for my usual weekly episode on Tuesday.
