Homegirl Nation
Being a woman has never been easy and when the going gets tough, we can all use a homegirl to lean on. Join entertainment host Brigitte Truong each week as she meets with courageous guests who have found their lane despite the odds. From business failures to mental health, sex to hate crimes, the candid discussions you hear will give you a new perspective on how freeing and empowering it can be when you own your story. Let’s make it easier to talk about tough things when it comes to womanhood because when we do, we’ll see that we’re more alike and connected than we think.

#30 Catherine Fogarty | Our Fascination With True Crime Stories
If you’re a true crime junkie like me, you’re going to really enjoy this episode because Catherine Fogarty is with us to talk about the wildly popular genre. Catherine has a really interesting storytelling background - she is the founder and president of Big Coat Media - the production company behind the award winning Love It or List It on HGTV. She’s also the writer, producer and voice of Story Hunter Podcast which is a narrative true crime podcast focusing on Canadian crime stories. And she’s parlayed her interest on this side of factual storytelling into two books: Murder on the Inside: The True Story of the 1971 Kingston Penitentiary Riot and her latest SOMEONE YOU KNOW: An Unforgettable Collection of Canadian True Crime Stories. Time to dive into our curiosity around true crime.
Let’s meet Catherine!
