But almost 27 years after the crime, he was still fighting to prove his innocence.

So in September of 2022, I packed up my desk at my job, handed back my building pass and drove out of the car park for the very last time.

Well, that is it.

I'm driving out of my workplace.

14 years on the radio.

And we're done.

No job.

Only a podcast that only just launched the other day.

Zero income.

It's a little podcast and a hope and dream.

God, I hope it works.

I was leaving behind a career of 15 years.

I had a wife, two children and a mortgage.

This was really the only job I'd ever known, and one that had seen me travel the country, working at many radio stations in different cities.

Over the years, it gave me the opportunity to do some fun things, interview people like Justin Bieber, Ed Sheeran, comedians and actors like Kevin Hart, Kristen Wiig.

It was ultimately a fun job.

And I was terrified about walking away from it.

But I knew that what I was about to do had the potential to change my life.

And it's fair to say, it most certainly did.

After telling the stories of over 53 men and women and almost 10 million downloads, I'm even more passionate about the show than I was when it first started.
