The podcast is 6 years after the crime. Do you think they were only reporters who ask the father and another lady about the crime?

I bet there were many other newspapers and reporters in India already ask them same questions many times over and over (keep in mind, Asian media a lot worse in this kind of celebrity news). It is clear that those people are jaded by any reporter. They probably don't even who are those podcasters. When they got a call from a reporter, they automatically don't want to talk.

I find the podcaster is so disingenuous asking why the father didn't want to talk to them in the final episode. Give me a break. Maybe you should look at your own mirror and your fellow Journalist's mirror.
