Caroline Criado Perez has spent years investigating the gender data gap – and how women are simply forgotten in a world designed for men. Her best-selling book, Invisible Women, was published to critical acclaim, and Caroline was inundated with readers sharing their own stories of the “default male”.

In her new podcast Caroline investigates what happens next: how can we close the gender data gap and design a world that works for everyone? Caroline will hunt for missing data, get in fights with manufacturing companies, and find the people who are working to close the gender data gap. You'll hear expert guests, gripping stories, and plenty of inspiration.

Introducing “Missing Niqui McCown,” the 2001 disappearance of a 28-year-old woman who vanished three weeks before her wedding. 

The final known moments of Niqui’s whereabouts were captured by a surveillance camera in a laundromat in Richmond, Indiana. Detectives have spent 22 years trying to piece together what happened next. They would find plenty of leads (her car turned up five months later in Dayton, OH) and many suspects (including a former police officer) but they have not found Niqui. A windy trail of clues has led to what some would call a definitive answer, but investigators caution: things might not be what they seem.

This podcast dives deep into the archives, analyzes evidence never publicly seen, and includes new interviews with those who knew Niqui best. All in hopes of rekindling public interest, generating fresh leads, and ultimately bringing long-overdue justice to the McCown family.
