Neil Mitchell is a legendary Australian broadcaster and journalist who became one of the youngest editors of an Australian newspaper in 1985 at The Herald.
He went on to write for The Age before beginning his extraordinary 37-year run on 3AW, where his talkback show made him a dedicated supporter of victims of crime.
His podcast Neil Mitchell Asks Why is available wherever you get your podcasts, and he joins Australian True Crime to talk about the cases that stay with him.
