Hi, I'm Lauren Malloy, the host of the podcast, My Mom's Murder. For 30 years, I thought my mom died of natural causes. That's what everyone told me and what I believed. Until one day, I got a phone call that changed everything.
A woman claiming to be my mom's best friend told me my mother was murdered. And no one had ever investigated it. So I did what the detectives wouldn't. I pulled the threads, I knocked on doors that had been shut for decades, and I confronted
the contradictions. And what I found? It's worse than I imagined. Something happened to my mom.
That was the opening. The rest of the episode (5 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
