    Apr 26 2024

    Welcome to episode three of Diary of a Private Investigator, join your host Nathan Hoole as he shares some of his recent experiences from the world of PI and how he ended up working undercover at a massage parlour as part of an investigation for a client going through a divorce.

    In this episode, you'll hear about how private investigators are often played against each other in terms of pricing and services, the dangers of PI work and the skills you need to remain safe.

    Nathan is often asked if his work is dangerous, and whilst it can be, he shares stories of his experiences and how he reduces risk when he's working a case.

    One of his first ever cases as a PI saw him working at a massage parlour in order to investigate the private goings on of a client's future ex-wife. From asking for 'extras' to going the extra mile to uncover information about the target's assets, this story is entertaining to say the least!
