  • Episode 9 - Investigating sex noise complaints and reflecting on mental health and the black dog
    Nov 1 2024

    Join your host Nathan Hoole as he delves into one his latest cases, a landlord's noise complaint about sex noises from a suspected 'online entertainer'. Nathan also delves deeply into his history and experiences with mental health including depression and anxiety, his pathways through them and how he rediscovered his purpose. It's an interesting episode that details how easy it can be to succumb to the feelings of depression and anxiety, a conversation that's more important than ever. Although we've detoured slightly from the usual tales of the world of private investigation, Nathan still manages to talk about one of his latest, Chuckle Brothers inspired stories...

Enjoyed listening so far. Waiting on episode 3 to come out.

I am currently taking a course and looking into becoming a P.I as it is something I have always been interested in and wanted a change of career. I have no history in the police or Military, so this is all fairly new to me. Though I have always had an interest into investigating and crime etc. And a friend who is also in the same industry for the past 20 years and has built his own business being a PI. So I have a rough idea and some tips. But I was looking for abit more information into getting started and what really to expect apart from the obvious, where and how to get started and best advice & tips really. I have enjoyed listening to far and have found the first 2 episodes fairly useful.

looking forward to the next episode 😀
