In this week’s episode, Bob chats with Australian true crime author, teacher, and PhD student, Vikki Petraitis. Vikki is also the host of two incredible podcasts, “The Vanishing of Vivienne Cameron” and “Searching for Sarah MacDiarmid,” both of which were created in collaboration with the extremely popular “Casefile” podcast. Before discussing her podcasts, Vikki and Bob discuss gender roles in true crime fiction, how to define fearlessness, and what it’s like to write so many books you’ve lost count. They then discuss the mysterious disappearance of Vivienne Cameron and the murder of Beth Barnard on Philip Island in 1986.
