Stories are at the heart of true crime, whether the spotlight centers on a detective solving a murder case, an attorney making a winning argument in court, or a wife healing from the revelation that her beloved husband is a sexual predator.
We believe if you love the immersive, in-depth reporting that the best true crime stories bring, you’ll also love the new podcast You Probably Think This Story's About You. What if the person you thought was your soulmate never really existed?
That’s what kicked off this podcast, which sees host Brittani Ard digging into the shattered ruins of what was supposed to be her ultimate love story. A man named Kanon stole her heart. Only, the person Kanon pretended to be was quite different from reality.
That’s where we begin with You Probably Think This Story's About You. But the real story comes through Britt’s quest for answers. As she digs into Kanon’s dark, twisted history, she meets other women who he lied to and strung along. She starts to see the patterns — the lie about his wife who died by suicide, the lie about his wife struggling with drugs, the shimmering web of lies crafted to deceive and harm women, to make him sound as sympathetic as possible.
This podcast will immerse you in Britt’s journey. In speaking with other victims of Kanon’s lies, she begins to dig into why she was susceptible to his charms. You will feel like you’re there along with her as she unpacks these deceptions and forges connections to the other women she meets along the way. Ultimately, this is a great story because it is not just about lies and predation and heartbreak. It’s about self-discovery. It’s about sisterhood. And it’s about the truth.
We think that in our truth-starved, dating-app-driven world, You Probably Think This Story's About You is a must-listen for anyone trying to balance love and trust with guardedness and skepticism. Britt’s story is as relatable as it is remarkable, and it’s one that we think you’ll find compelling.
Listen and follow You Probably Think This Story’s About You wherever you listen to podcasts.
