- 39 minutes 17 secondsThe Suspicious Death of Jason Rigby in Fiji
When Australian hotel manager Jason Rigby was found dead in his staff apartment at a luxury resort in Fiji on 14 December 2024, authorities initially ruled his death a suicide.
Jason’s family have never accepted that explanation, and have spent the past two years fighting for answers. Today, Jason’s sister-in-law Jess Rigby joins us to tell his story, and to talk about her upcoming memoir, While the Baby Slept.

In the 1990s, Steven Meyers was an accomplice to his friend Scott Scurlock, better known as the “Hollywood Bandit”, who carried out a remarkable series of bank robberies across Seattle using elaborate disguises and meticulous planning to evade police.
Scurlock stole millions of dollars and lived an extraordinary double life from a three-storey treehouse outside Olympia.
Steven was there for much of it, and today he joins us to talk about their friendship, how their bank-robbing operation actually worked, and what happened when their extraordinary double life finally came crashing down.
