Brigitte Truong

If you’re a true crime junkie like me, you’re going to really enjoy this episode because Catherine Fogarty is with us to talk about the wildly popular genre.  Catherine has a really interesting storytelling background - she is the founder and president of Big Coat Media - the production company behind the award winning Love It or List It on HGTV. She’s also the writer, producer and voice of Story Hunter Podcast which is a narrative true crime podcast focusing on Canadian crime stories.  And she’s parlayed her interest on this side of factual storytelling into two books: Murder on the Inside: The True Story of the 1971 Kingston Penitentiary Riot and her latest SOMEONE YOU KNOW: An Unforgettable Collection of Canadian True Crime Stories.  Time to dive into our curiosity around true crime. 

Let’s meet Catherine!
