Content Warning: Discussions of Violence against Women, murder, police brutality, serial killers, true crime

Housekeeping <3 :

Welcome to episode 1 of the Panopticon-Flavoured Oat Milk podcast! Unfortunately, I am down with either covid, rsv, or some other physical manifestation of the capitalist nightmare we're currently living through. i'm relatively out of it during the taping of this episode so please bare with me <3

Due to my illness, this episode is much shorter than I'd like it to be, so my deepest apologies for the assaultive levels of vocal fry and mucus-induced jumpcuts !!!

Episode Summary :

Episode 1 of PFOM involves a discussion of the Highway of Tears, Missing White Woman Syndrome, police response to violence, and how it all ties together in our current understanding of true crime. Is true crime content ethical? Who consumes it and why? What does crime look like for those most vulnerable?
