'Judge, jury and executioner': Leesa and Ron Topic Pt.1

Former UK police officer Caroline Clarke reveals how childhood trauma and a sexual assault forced her to finally break her silence.

Caroline Clarke spent nearly a decade as a police officer on the rough streets of West Yorkshire chasing down criminals, working the drugs squad, and stepping into homes torn apart by domestic violence. But nothing in her training prepared her for what happened when she became a victim-survivor herself.

In this episode of I Catch Killers, Caroline opens up about growing up in a home where love and violence lived side by side, the silence she inherited from her mother, and the sexual assault that left her questioning why her body froze when she thought she would fight. Caroline breaks down the freeze response, a trauma reaction still misunderstood by police, juries, and the public, and explains why survivors are so often blamed instead of believed.

Caroline is now the founder of the No More Silence movement, dedicated to helping survivors break their silence and shift the shame back to where it belongs.

Eating Chinese food, covered in a strangers blood: Brando 'The Balkan Bear' Peričić Pt. 2

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/a64ff9a0-8ab5-4d79-a8c9-b48a0053ac4f/transcript

UFC heavyweight Brando Peričić on growing up without a father, battling depression & chasing the UFC title from Adelaide's roughest streets.

At six foot five and 118 kilos, Brando Peričić is one of the most physically imposing heavyweights in the UFC. But behind the fighter is a story most people never see, a story of an absent father, childhood bullying, depression, suicidal thoughts, and a young man who had every reason to fail, yet refused to.

In this episode of I Catch Killers, Gary sits down with the Adelaide-born UFC heavyweight in a raw, honest, and deeply personal conversation that goes well beyond the octagon. Brando opens up about growing up in a Croatian household with a single mother working two jobs, a father who went to prison, and a childhood marked by anger, confusion, and pain he didn't know how to carry.

From getting expelled in year 10 and working Adelaide's roughest pub doors, where he was stabbed, bottled, and coward punched, to sleeping in the gym while chasing a dream everyone told him was impossible, Brando's journey is as brutal as it is inspiring.
