Something Was Wrong
S22: WCN Presents: [Madison McGhee] Ice Cold Case

That's when I really decided now I need to start talking to people. Well, what do I do with that? Do I try to record it with my phone? Do I see if they'll let me interview them with my camera? How do you make a documentary with no budget? Podcasting is a natural next step because it's a little lighter of a lift now.

As far as crew requirements and gear requirements, in my case, it's very hard to get people to agree to go on camera. It's an open case. For all that we know, there's a murderer on the loose still. Maybe they've been arrested for something else or they're in prison for something else, but you don't know that.

So it's very tricky to get people to agree to sit down for an on-camera interview when they don't know where the killer is. I faced a lot of complications with that. So podcasts just became the natural progression. I started reaching out to the police department, the prosecutor's office who sent me the files and some family members and asked if they would be willing to talk to me

I couldn't just bank on traveling to the other side of the country and hoping that they would say yes. I had to really line up these interviews because I don't have a lot of time. It's very expensive to go and I didn't want to have to go back and forth. I reached out to some people ahead of time. I got a couple people to agree to meet with me.

S22: WCN Presents: [Madison McGhee] Ice Cold Case

In June of 2021, I went out and I started doing my first round of in-person interviews and collecting audio. Still really unsure about what it was going to be. Every time I go back to the area, there's a couple that I meet up with. They were working at the Narcotics Anonymous program with my dad. That's how they knew my dad.

They were one of the first people I got connected with when I started doing this. They did not ever want to be interviewed for the show, which I've been really respectful of. There's other people who knew my dad on the drug dealing side, which is a completely different side of him. My mom has her slew of stories of my dad that are also sort of very different from other people's perspective.

When your parents are alive and you have more of a traditional relationship with them, you probably will never hear about your dad's most wild night in college. Now, because of what I'm doing, I'm hearing about that sort of side of my dad. And so I'm almost getting to know him in a way that I may never have if he was alive, because I don't think he would want me to know any of this stuff.
