The Broken System Podcast

Welcome to “The Broken System Podcast,” where we delve into the intricate web of societal challenges that individuals face when caught in the crosshairs of a flawed system. Join us as we shine a light on the untold stories of those marginalized by circumstances beyond their control – whether it’s the impact of drugs, the world of prostitution, or the weight of financial disparity.

In each episode, we unravel the complex narratives that often remain hidden beneath the surface, exploring the human experiences and emotions that arise when individuals find themselves grappling with a world that seems stacked against them. With empathy and insight, we engage in conversations that seek to understand the systemic forces at play, the personal battles fought, and the resilience that emerges from the shadows.

Through thought-provoking interviews, in-depth research, and poignant storytelling, “The Broken System Podcast” aims to foster a deeper understanding of how these issues intersect and perpetuate cycles of disadvantage. By amplifying voices that are often unheard, we strive to ignite conversations that lead to positive change, empathy, and a collective effort to mend a system that has left far too many behind.

Join us on a journey of discovery, empathy, and empowerment as we explore the stories that challenge our perceptions and inspire us to work towards a more just and equitable society for all. #thebrokensystempodcast

Ghost in the Machine

“I truly believe that motors were used to win bike races” – Greg LeMond, three-time winner of the Tour de France.

In January 2016, 19-year-old Belgian cyclist Femke van den Driessche was caught with a collection of wires, motors and batteries buried deep inside her spare bike at the Cyclo-cross World Championships.

She was then suspended for six years and bore the wrath of global media as the only rider ever to be banned by The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) for having a motor in her bike, despite numerous previous suspicions of other competitive cyclists that have never been confirmed or disproved.

Eight years later, Chris Marshall-Bell is on a mission to reveal the truth around motors in cycling as he peers beneath the surface of sports’ most incredible discovery. 

Chris will unpick a tangled web of bizarre misdemeanours, claims and counter-claims. From jail time, bankruptcy and death threats to carnival cat costumes and one daring canary theft – this story is set to keep listeners on the edge of their seat.

Is motor-doping being performed at the highest level? Is this bigger than just one young woman’s spare bicycle?

Blood is Thicker: The Farris Wheel

When the charred remains of prominent commercial real estate attorney Gary Farris were discovered on a burn pile with a bullet lodged in a rib bone, detectives knew they were facing a homicide investigation. The crime scene was a sprawling 10-acre property in Cherokee County, Georgia, where Gary Farris lived with his wife, Melody, and their son, Scott. Gary Farris seemed to be a loving husband and father, affectionately called “Big Daddy”. Yet, all signs seemed to suggest that one of Gary Farris’ own family members was responsible for his murder. It turns out this family had a lot of secrets – involving money and infidelity. Much like an actual Ferris wheel, the blame game went round and round. Join 48 Hours correspondent Peter Van Sant for “Blood is Thicker: The Farris Wheel,” a six-episode podcast that unravels a tangled family saga.
