CW: Physical, emotional and financial abuse, sexual assault and rape culture.
Some people should never be given a badge of authority. When Juanita got married, everyone in her life kept saying she was with such a good man. After all he was a school prefect who became a police officer. But what went on behind doors was a very different story.
This is a harrowing story of the abuse that can happen when people are put in positions of authority and abuse that power. It is also a story of survival and not giving up even when all seems lost.

And somehow the two women found an unlikely friendship that Liz thinks is REALLY WEIRD (but that’s probably because she’s projecting).

Take a trip down memory lane with a story from our archives.
A date, on a tractor, in an abandoned constructions site, at night? Jackie says yes. And then there was the "yoga" date that was ... well ... even we don't quite know how to explain it. The word cult comes to mind? London-based voice actor and stand-up comedian Jacqueline Ozorio has been on some interesting dates.
Jackie is a London-based trained voice actor with a passion for character work and storytelling.
To further my career as a performer, she moved to London after completing her postgrad in Scriptwriting at Griffith University. She was later accepted into the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama (RCSSD) where she completed an MA in Music Theatre.
Jackie then wrote her first musical, a modern feminist comedy called ‘Real Women', alongside musical director and composer Matthew Samer, which enjoyed great success in the 2015 Queensland Cabaret Festival.
Since 2018 she's been a regular on the Penny Peepshow podcast, and love the challenge of giving life to so many different characters. Alongside her professional voice over and theatre work, she can also be found doing stand-up comedy on London's open mic circuit.
To keep herself fresh and engaged, she also trains in long-form improv with London's largest improv school, the Free Association, and in her spare time she loves to play DnD, watch horror films, and knit hats on the tube.
