Impressive writing & narration.
Some scandals should be balked at. The researchers deserve awards for exposing the corruption within their own government & those who turned a blind eye to a generation of innocent human beings. The law on homosexuality has been relatively overturned with paltry apologies to this community. A recommended read to all who seek freedom from injustice wherever they find it.

Fascinating Story
Great research, well narrated and an extraordinary story. Opens a veil on past attitudes and warns us to be vigilant in protecting human rights in the future.

Fascinating yet shocking listen
I’m shocked to learn about the laws in Australia and the stories of entrapment and that it was going on during my childhood.
A great documentary and my heat goes out to everyone who suffered during this awful times.

How far we’ve come
An extremely moving podcast that shows how much attitudes have changed in the last 70 years. Beautifully narrated by the researcher, shining a light on a hidden prison and the repercussions of repressive anti-homosexuality laws.

Definitely worth listening to
Short but thorough podcast telling the story of author's research for Australian government's report on tests on gay inmates at Cooma's male prison in the 60s and 70s. I was horrified while listening to some of the victims' stories but also happy to learn about the movement leading to the recognition of gay people's rights.

A fascinating story
For all heterosexuals who lived through the 50s and 60s this is required listening.

Australia
I had no idea that Australia was such an intolerant and hateful society. Such shame.

And the truth wins
I listened to this podcast with bated breath and optimism even though I knew there would be difficult facts to unfold.
This notorious idea of a prison just for gay men is abhorrent and so far from the mind of those who believe in inclusion.
I am glad that this podcast exists so that many shamed people can find solace in their truth for the better.
Patrick and Simon have given the world a gift worth every pain to bring it forth.
Human evolution is slow and yet in our time it's time to accept that different doesn't mean bad. This podcast is proof the truth wins and no laws can control it.
