Bonus: Lay Them to Rest - with Laurah Norton

Three true crime creators walk into a conversation about advocacy, burnout, ethics, and community. Josh Hallmark (True Crime Bullshit, Unsafe Spaces) is joined by Eric Carter Landin (True Consequences, AdvocacyCon, Angels’ Voices Silenced No More) and Patrick Hinds (True Crime Obsessed) for a raw, funny, and grounded roundtable on what it takes to make true crime responsibly, how listener relationships can get complicated fast, and why trauma informed spaces for families matter.Eric shares how his brother Jacob’s case shaped his life and work, including how a listener driven “10 Days of Jacob” campaign created enough public pressure to force movement in the case. Patrick talks about why True Crime Obsessed stopped using the “true crime comedy” label and what it means to bring levity without disrespect. Josh opens up about the stress of production, perfectionism, and the reality that every five minutes of audio is hours of work.They also talk mental health supports for people featured in documentaries and podcasts, navigating feedback and trolls, parasocial dynamics, and what they are listening to right now. Content note: Discussion includes child death, violence, trauma, and institutional responses to serious cases.Guests Eric Carter Landin: True Consequences, AdvocacyCon, Angels’ Voices Silenced No MorePatrick Hinds: True Crime ObsessedJosh Hallmark: True Crime Bullshit, Unsafe Spaces TopicsTrue Crime Conversations roundtableAdvocacy and self careEthical true crime storytellingTrauma informed support for familiesListener boundaries and parasocial dynamicsMedia pressure and burnoutPodcast recommendationsTimestamps 00:00 Intro and True Crime Conversations01:10 Origin stories08:45 Production stress and burnout12:10 Humor, ethics, and “true crime comedy”17:40 Mental health support for participants26:00 Listener interactions and boundaries36:30 Jacob’s case and “10 Days of Jacob”44:40 AdvocacyCon and trauma informed care52:40 What they’re listening to59:10 Wrap upPodcast recommendations mentioned Who Took Misty CopseyThe Wild BoysPretend The Curse of America’s Next Top ModelBlinkLinks AdvocacyConAngels’ Voices Silenced No MoreTrue Crime ObsessedTrue Crime BullshitUnsafe SpacesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-consequences-true-crime--4347262/support.

Dione Begay was born on March 28th, 1975. She was the eldest of six children and is described by her sister Christine as having a positive perspective on life and a witty sense of humor which is missed by her loved ones. Dione was beautiful, vibrant, outgoing, intelligent, and family-orientated. She was a mother of four daughters and had unique, close relationships with her entire family. Dione had several tribal connections via her parents, Debbie and Laffie Begay. Dione’s mother Debbie is part of the Dakotas ‘Yankton’ and ‘Arikara’ tribe, and her father, the ‘Navajo’ and ‘Dine’ tribe. As a Native American woman, Dione Begay is one of many Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women in New Mexico who is yet to receive justice, despite the brutality inflicted upon her and the obvious circumstances of the crime. Her family's pleas for help have also continued to be ignored.
