    The Trials of Brian Buckle
    Jun 3 2025
    On a bank holiday Monday in 2015, Brian Buckle's world was turned upside down. He was being accused of one of the worst crimes imaginable by a relative. What happened over the next 7 years, was nothing short of a real life nightmare. In this episode, Brian and his wife Elaine share their story and their mission for change. This is Real.

I don't normally leave reviews, but this podcast has ignited a string sense of belief that this young man is innocent and Jodi's killer has literally gotten away with murder.

I'm convinced

have been listening to this podcast for a while and can honestly say its one of the best, the detail and attention to the victim rather than the killer is done so tastefully - highly recommend

Very interesting

As a host Channell is more guide on the side than sage on the stage, giving voice to the voiceless and space to families, friends and others affected to share their perspectives.

An honest, compassionate, survivor-focused and trauma informed podcast. A refreshing take on the true crime genre.
