The Murders of Ramon Navarro and Alan Henry...

Talented actor Ramon Navarro was a big star in Hollywood during the silent era. His career faded over the years, but he still enjoyed entertaining young male escorts with stories of his time in the spotlight. This is how he met hustlers the Ferguson brothers, who would end his life during an alcohol fuelled Halloween Eve. Alan Henry thought Gloucester in country NSW would be a good place to retire, but after his wife passed he found that he need some assistance. Employing Natasha Slacke as a part-time carer proved to be a fatal mistake. She and her violent boyfriend Jason Grogen had chequered pasts and addiction issues that senselessly led to Alan's demise.

Hosted by Tara Sariban and Barney Black, Bloody Murder-A True Crime Podcast digs into the darker corners of history, focusing on crimes that haven't been covered to exhaustion elsewhere. This award-nominated show explores lesser-known cases from Australia and across the globe, offering detailed narratives that are often overlooked. What sets this podcast apart is its unique tone-a blend of deep research and unexpected comedy that arises naturally from the hosts' dynamic and their own perspective as dedicated true crime fans. The humour is careful and considered, never mocking the victims or the gravity of the events discussed. Instead, it's the odd tangent, the personal reaction, or the absurdity surrounding a case that provides a moment of levity, making the exploration of difficult topics more engaging. Listeners will find a conversation that feels like joining two friends who are equally fascinated and critical, dissecting the how and why while treating the subject with respect. Each episode aims to add a fresh voice to the genre, prioritizing stories that are compelling precisely because they aren't the ones you've already heard a dozen times. It’s this commitment to uncovering obscure tales, paired with a genuinely distinctive rapport between the hosts, that defines the experience of this particular true crime podcast.
