Bye all. Have a great day/night
Good Night and Thank you!!!!
Do you listen to podcasts in your downtime and if so what ones or genres are you drawn to?
Yep sure do. Joe Rogan. Hardcore History. Jocko podcast. A number of rugby league podcasts when the season is on. Fantasy footballers.
Before you go can you give me the names of those punk bands? Been a lifelong punk fan but need some new bands
Check out The Decline. Nerdlinger. Smoke or fire. Teenage bottlerocket. Local resident failure. The loved ones.
Thank you all for joining in today. Hope you all had a great Christmas and have a sensational new year (don’t drink too much)
Man! Take all the fun out of it.
Any other questions?
Have you ever seen the made for TV movie “To Catch A Killer” about John Wayne Gary and Lt. Joe Kozenczak, the cop who caught him?
No I haven’t seen that one. You recommend?
More important punk album to you : Punk in Drublic Everything Sucks Stranger than Fiction And out come the wolves
For me - Punk in Drublic.
Hi Triston. No never got into the basketball. NFL is the US sport I follow.
Which team do you support?
Are you a fan of the NBA? If so any team in particular?
What do you think of The Cure?
I do like them. Fav song = a letter to Elise.
Will Casefile look at miscarriages of justice at some point? I'd love to see Button and Beamish covered
Yeah quite possibly Rose. We are open to any and all types of cases.
Last recorded AMA you mentioned going to shows of your favorite bands and being the only person in the audience? Which bands?
All punk bands. they are mostly small crowds these days. Except for the major bands like nofx and bad religion and rise against - They still pack shows. But all the other bands don’t draw many these days.
Do you plan on doing the Melbourne gang land wars or do you feel its been covered enough
I’d like to. Could be difficult to do with all the names and events. Could easily loose the audience. But Id like to try at some point.
Will there be a whole update episode on EAR/ONS anytime soon or just updates in From the Files episodes?
Just from the files for now. Will most likely wait until the case is finalised at court before doing a full update.
Nothing in the immediate immediate works. But a few on the list of potentials.
Casey, do you have any Canadian cases in the works?
I vaguely recall something being said in the recorded AMA, but I’m not sure 🤔
Since you won’t tell us who you are, will you say what decade you were born in?
I reckon you might be able to work that out on the AMA released this week!
Hi Connor. We haven’t looked at that one. Will take a look.
Happy Holidays to all!
Happy holidays Jennifer.
Hello and happy holidays! What was your favorite gift, given or received, this year? Also when researching a case, is it just books and Google or do you guys actually do interviews and speak with those affected? Thanks!
**and/or have some special access to case files?
Have you ever considered covering cases on school shootings, particularly foreign ones that haven't been covered by the media extensively? I was looking at recent events Peshawar massacre and Garissa University College attack, and interested how the casualty mark could be that high.
Hello Team, since you've covered two Polish cases so far, I was wondering if there's more coming next year? The research on Vampire of Kraków was superb and I'd love for that writer to take on the Skóra/Skin case, although its resolution is fairly new since until recently it was an unsolved one. I know you have a Polish member on the team (or at least one with a Polish sounding name) but you can hmu if you ever need anything. Only half joking here 🤔 Thank you for an amazing year of quality content, I'm really looking forward to the first case of 2019.
Hi Katarzyna. Thank you very much. I’ll forward that one in to Mike and Paulina who compiled the research on the vampire and Krakow case.
Will there be a follow-up episode on EAR/ONS anytime soon or just updates in From the Files?
I’d say we will now wait until the court case is finalised before doing another major update episode. But we will also continue to do the weekly from the files updates.
Hi casey, merry Christmas from Texas. Casefile is easily the best true crime podcast out there and I really appreciate the work you put into it. Would you please look into Amber Hagerman’s case? She was a young girl who was kidnapped and murdered. Her case led to the creation of the famous AMBER alert system commonly used today. <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amber_alert" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amber_alert</a> Thanks!
Hi Grant merry Christmas. Thank you much appreciated. Yes this one is on our list of potentials.
What countries have you found the hardest cases to find research on?? eg what type of obstacles make it hard?
A lot of the foreign cases are difficult and require google translate. So the language barrier definitely does produce obstacles.
Hi Casey! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! You mentioned, I think on the recorded AMA, that a family member mentioned Casefile and they had no idea it was you. What did they say? It must be difficult to maintain anonymity all the time.
Hi Laura. Yeah that has happened. I actually go into a bit of a story about being discovered by family on the End of year AMA we are releasing this week. It will be on the main feed as an end of year bonus - not a Patreon exclusive. For this month only. It hasn’t been that difficult but some conversations can get a bit awkward. Particularly meeting new people.
Hi from sweltering Victoria, What has been your favourite case to research and present?
Hi Bec. I find it Impossible to pick one.
Happy Holidays to all, from “Wet Coast” of BC, Canada. Keep up the great work Casey and crew, it’s much appreciated. You all are my favorite True Crime Podcast, but you’ve got Jillian of Court Junkie, hot on your “Case”. 😀
Haha. Thank you Brett. Much appreciated.
Any update on covering the Janine Vaughan case?
No update. Definitely still on the list.
Thank you Alexis. Much appreciated. Merry Christmas and have a great new year!
Thanks for putting on a great production! It really shines through how much the whole team cares. Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Hey Casey, curious on your opinion about the greenough murders in WA..
Hi Abby. We have looked at covering it in the past but decided against it back then. Still may in the future.
Thanks Casey!! Will there be more updates coming from Casefile on the Golden State Killer?
Yeah for sure. As more news develops we will keep on it.
What’s the latest on doing then Ivan Milat story? Really want to hear you guys do that one
Hi Alan. That one is still in the possibles list.
Hi Casey, I used to love reading the scripts & magazines you guys produced, any chance of bringing them back??
Hi Sonia. Possibly as a one off on a case. But not regularly u fortunately. It was far to time consuming.
I remember talk about listener-produced episodes a while ago, but haven't seen anything about it since then. Is it taking longer than expected, or were they silently added to the regular schedule?
One was in the works and close to being completed, however we hit a hurdle. This is something we will look at in the new year.
hi casey! hope you are having a lovely holiday season! if you could anonymously host a separate podcast about anything of your choosing, what would you pick?
Hi Sara. It would with be a rugby league podcast. Or a music podcast (punk/metal etc)
Hi Casey! Long time listener, been hooked since case 4! Just curious about which cases you take on. Are they stories you find organically from your interest in true crime or is it more listener requests? Much love to the whole team!
Hi Alexis. Definitely a fairly even split between both I’d say. Hard to put an exact number on it. But it would be fairly close. Sometimes it’s cases we stumble across while researching others as well.
It's based on the killer couple and has stephen curry in a career-best role. I'd recommend it. Love two hands as well!
Hi Casey! Hope you're enjoying the holidays! What are some of your favorite crime related movies that you'd recommend
Hello Pei. The departed. Two hands. Reservoir dogs. Seven. Training Day. Silence of the lambs. No country for old men. To name a few.
Merry Christmas! Do you have a favourite Christmas movie?
Merry Christmas Mikki. Definitely do. Die Hard.
I’ve been re-listening to old episodes and started wondering - do you enjoy podcasting as much as you did when you started? Any more or less? I’m sure it changed the dynamic when you went from doing it for fun to doing it with paid subscribers and advertisers...
I Still enjoy it as much as I did. It’s definitely much more full on now. But I’d say it’s even more enjoyable now that I have such a talented bunch of people I work with.
Hi Casey! Hope you get to have some time off over the new year. Thanks for all that you guys do, the podcast is amazing.
Thank you Christine, much appreciated.
What’s your favorite beach to go to in Australia? Or do you not like the beach? 😊
I love the beach! I definitely have a favourite beach ;)
How was your Christmas? Any New year's plans?
Very good thank you Veronica. How was yours? No nothing major for New Years. Will be a fairly quiet one I think.
Merry Christmas Casey!
Merry Christmas Laini
